but it was absolutely revolting, there was mould all over the walls, the bedding was stained, there was hair everywhere in the bathroom - I would also like to point out that I am not a huge hotel snob - I can accept that things do get missed during cleaning / sometimes things are not perfect, but this was just insane.

Bathroom was like a sauna and room was cold, could’ve been more down to us being clueless with the controls.

The sheets were clean , the bathroom was old and tiny .

Presented a huge problem for me and I had to book another hotel under pressure, elevated rates, etc.

Not sure if there is a loo for the disabled?

Well it seems that 185sq/ft includes the pokey bathroom, the small corridor with barely enough room for the double bed.

I found a layer of dust over the shelf under the washbasin which included the tissue box and spare toilet roll!

The rooms are very tired and lacked storage and mirrors.

I tolerated the uncomfortable bed and bathroom issues

The shower situation in our room was unsafe. The (broken??)

The bath room is tiny - to sit on the toilet your knees are virtually around your ears.

Next day, aside from the normal flood around the shower, another one appeared by the toilet, it wasn’t man miss either, it was the shower.

This room was okay, until I got in the shower and the plaster at the top of the shower was coming away from the wall and the water was leaking from the bath and the shower.

The iron board was dirty and what looked still poo was rubbed on the bathroom wall!

When I got to my room I found a massive amount of hair on the drain to the shower.

Our room was small not very cleaned and the bathroom was the worst part .

It took a long time to get the lift up to our room.

The hotel is housing over 200 migrant familes who appear to have taken over the front lobby area, the area around the lifts stunk of urine and were being used as play areas for the children of the adults who where lounging around the lobby entrance.

The elevators are small and a funky system.

The hotel is dark and the elevator is something else !!

Wait times for elevators were rediculous.

Dark and dingy corridors we were unable to find our room as so dark unable to see door number then realised it was the one right at the side of the lifts!

As I was waiting for the elevator which always took long and a strange way of dealing with I decided to go look for her, I was not done.

You can only use 1 specific lift to your floor - so long wait for the lift.

When busy the elevators are an experience; elbows out for the queue busters!

So myself and my partner went to complain to a manager and the only rooms they had were by a lift or a twin room.

There was some noise from the elevators and the construction,

We never had to wait more than a few minutes for an elevator.

The elevator system is strange, you have to select on a panel which floor you want and are directed to a certain lift; there are 8 lifts(elevators).

Elevators are slow, old and incredibly small.

You’ll read loads of other comments about the lifts which were a nightmare, and one evening the lift we went in smelled really strongly of urine, where someone had obviously relieved themselves in there!

The elevator system is old and very very very bad.

We were there for five days, and the reasonable price, excellent shower, comfortable bed, and nicely furnished living area made us feel right at home.

The price we paid was so reasonable for such a central location.

I booked the hotel room based on the reasonable price and photos on Row NYC’s website

Stay was good and reasonable to the price.

The prices are much more reasonable than any other options in the area.

Then to our surprise when we came down at 8 the next morning it was open for breakfast so stopped in and enjoyed a reasonable priced breakfast.

For the location, the rates are reasonable, and we would stay here again.

Researched on-line and found The Row to have a good location for our visit, and reasonable rates and options.

Row NYC has friendly helpful staff, reasonable prices, and comfortable rooms.

Would recommend for a central stay & if you are looking for a reasonable priced stay.

Very reasonable rates compared to other hotels in the same area!

Convenient to theaters and transportation; staff is professional; updated and clean rooms, showers good; beds comfortable and heat/cool system good; price reasonable.

It is a great hotel for a reasonable price right in Times Square.

Almost everything about it is customer-centric, and the per-night fee is very reasonable.

Very reasonable price, good, clean rooms and overall facility.

No help from the hotel, no discount and no choice of another room.

We booked a room for early November with a no cancellation policy.

The room itself wasn't very clean unfortunately and was rather run down.

I spoke with someone every time I called, and they assured me that my room was secured due to the deposit!

Things did not improve as we made our way to our rooms, each of our 3 rooms was grubby and unclean, so much so we decided not to take our cloths out of our suitcases, we lived out of the cases for the duration of our stay.

We went back to reception (after trying to ring on the filthy phone that was broken), where we were checked into a second room.

Upon arrival at 11 pm, we were told our room had been cancelled three months prior “due to maintenance upgrades.” No one ever alerted us!

Canceled our reservation .We were on our way to the hotel we received  a brief  email that the room was not available  because overbooked.

I can only assume The Row cancelled my reservation since they needed rooms with 2 beds for the migrants they will be housing.

Yesterday I received an email from Row stating they were reserving a room at another hotel for me.

Booked a room for 4 nights at Row NYC and when i got there i was told they overbooked half their hotel rooms and i was being sent to a different hotel entirely.

Do not book your stay here if you want to be certain you have a room.

Had an on-going battle with temperature extremes in the room with the air-con/heating.

I actually ended up scrubbing light fixtures and the bathtub with my own antibac wipes so if your in room 2639 it might be a little less grubby for a week or two, the bathtub is mouldy and the sheets and towels don't get changed, even when you fold them on the floor!

Room is very basic, just beds to sleep in, no mini fridge, no microwave.

From the dramatic FDNY elevator rescue to blood on the sheets.

Be prepared for children vomiting in the lobby and families of 5 filling up the one and only running elevator.

They are renovating elevators so expect a long wait.

but we then realised that families lived on the 2nd and 5th floors of the hotel due to the lift going up and down to these floors and our room was on the 13th floor so wasn't going to take the stairs!!!

However you could take the lift down 16 floors if you wanted tea

the hotel is full of homeless families that are noisy and are eating in the hallways and elevators !!

The elevator is very slow and The carpet in The corredors are very OLD and dirty.

I can only repeat what people have already said, slow lifts, we were on the 16th floor, took forever, shabby room decor, grubby outdated bathroom, no restaurant, extra tax/fees not expected, rooftop bar rip off prices.

There isn't much interaction with other guests (other than the lifts) so we didn't even notice this.

And as everyone else pointed out, the elevators are incredibly slow and the rooms weren’t anything special.

It then got worse when I had to wait ages for the lift to take me to my room.

Moreover the 2 elevators were too slow and busy that took at least 10min to go up or down.

The elevators are slow and can be packed,

The only slight negative is the noisy teenage crowd patroning the Sky/Rooftop Bar coz you have to share the lifts with the bar patrons more so on weekends.

Stayed here in April 2019 and Im have to say it was terrible.There are two lifts one of which was out of order most of the time and it failed to stop on our floor 12th and it would go up and down and stop regularly on the 2nd floor where there seemed to be a reception area for those who lived in the hotel.

Located on Korea street with some of the best Korean restaurants and is walking distance from all major points like the Penn station , Macys and 5th Avenue .

Right outside is Little Korea with its restaurants so its a very busy street and plenty of places to eat.

Near Korea street, there is one 24 hours BCD tofu house in front of the hotel.

being in little Korea and near Herald Square.

Position of hotel is in Korea way, perfect, only 5 minutes to Empire state building (ticket for adult  34$), 8 minutes to Madison Squre garden- we go to basketball game- one of a kind show).

this is hotel is located so good, on Korea Way and you're so close to everything!

This part of 32nd St is also known as Korea Way, so there were heaps of Asian shops and eateries.

I love the location in Little Korea, walking distance from Penn Station and nearby restaurants, stores and subway stops.

Situated in Korea Town which was a nice place and being centrally located for where we were, is the only good thing I can say about this place.

Location was close to Empire State Building in the Korean town area.

Steps away from Macy's, Empire State Building and Penn station located on a busy street in Korea town.

Having said that, the rooms were clean, check in and check out were efficient, and of course, the “in the heart of Korea town” and “close to both Macy’s & JC Penney’s” location is still unchanged and attractive.

The hotel is in the heart of Koreatown on 32nd street.

Location is great--in the heart of Koreatown. Surrounded by awesome restaurants (including korean bbq & tea shops.)

A short walk ( less than 10 mins) from Penn Station, this hotel is located in Koreatown.

Location was good, right in the middle of Korea town, walking distance to many iconic sites in NYC.

Around plenty options for food because it’s located in Korea town.

The hotel is relatively inexpensive for midtown in the first place--adding this fee on still leaves the cost as very reasonable.

For the location of this hotel, its worth the price and the price you pay is reasonable.

We've stayed here many times due to it's excellent location and reasonable prices.

I do not want to be negative about this hotel as we paid a very reasonable price and had a comfortable stay.

I have stayed in other Applecore properties in Manhattan in the past, so booked this one with similar expectations (mid level hotels at reasonable price).

I went on to hotels.com and came across nyma at a very reasonable rate ($129 including tax).

but on the other hand, the deal breaker here for me is that I now know I can find much more comfortable accommodations at similarly reasonable prices through AirBNB or on other websites.
