Top Gowanus Hotel Reviews

Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay! I will come back du to great location and price. "

Pod Times Square

8/10 Good

"The location, the staff, the room accommodations excellent….. I’ll give the room’s cleanliness a three out of five. The rooms are modern, but you can tell they only do a face cleaning and not a deep cleaning so the crevices of the room are dirty and that needs to be done at least once a quarter if not more frequent. The rooms are on the smaller side, but it was perfect for me as I was traveling solo visiting my family as was only there to sleep. The hotel has a very cute restaurant/bar so make sure you check it out. The staff is so friendly and knowledgeable, especially the front desk staff. I would definitely stay here again even with the details above I’m someone who wipes down the place regardless of how clean it is so I just wipe down my room with my Lysol wipes and my cleaning spray and enjoyed myself."
