110th Boutique Hotel

Location is everything here. And expectations have to be put straight. The apartment (to be fair, this isn't a hotel) is located steps from the subway line 6 which runs stright to downtown. For 34 USD per week, you can forget on Taxis and Ubers, it will get you anywhere within 30 mins. The neighborhood is a bit shady, but wouldn't say insecure. A large store is within 2 min walking distance, an overpriced bakery is next door. The apartment needs new beds (not just mattresses), and should be "refreshed" a bit (the bathroom especially). It wasn't dirty, although based on our socks, it wasn't super clean also. We were also one night without heating and hot water, but it doesn't seem like this was owners fault and it was resolved in the morning. The check-in process could be easier, since it isn't like a hotel where you just show up (no reception), but rather you need to call/text few different numbers (which might get expensive if you are from outside of US). Overall, were happy with our stay, for that money and with the Airbnb ban, I doubt you will find better place for that price NYC. However, don't expect a hotel experience.

4 night stay I was very disappointed with this booking. I was charged $200 extra after booking because there was four guests and not two. The check in process was not efficient. I was asked to pick an exact check in time at booking between 2 and 5. This was not held by the staff upon arrival. Phone calls and text messages were left unanswered while we waited outside of the property for 45 minutes. All beds were extremely hard and noisy. They creaked with every body movement. The bedroom furniture was poor quality with drawers that fell apart immediately after opening. The bathroom ceiling was dripping right above the toilet. I would also recommend darkening shades for the larger bedroom because all that was provided were sheer curtains. I believe the price does not fit the room and accommodations. I would not stay here again.

Holiday season by Central Park North Location was great. We felt secure. However there were not a lot of the amenities one would get from a standard hotel which would have been more expensive. Overall, a good value for the location.
