Pod 39

The location was great! I could walk to Times Square and other places that I visited. The property was clean, and the staff were nice, polite, and friendly. The light bulbs in the room and bathroom were dimmable and good for sleeping time. The street view through the window was beautiful. I stayed on the 14th floor and had a nice view during the night. I have attached the picture. It was a specific place under the bed to put my stuff and luggage. I liked it.

Whoever designed this hotel thought it through very carefully. Everything worked very well. The bed was comfortable. My room was surprisingly quiet, even though it was next to the lifts. Despite the small size, there were clever options for storage. Pod 39 is extremely well located for Midtown Manhattan. The complementary tea and coffee in the mornings was a blessing and saved going out to find one straight away, although there are lots of options close by.

- Excellent location - Helpful staff - Clean and quiet room (as much as a hotel room in Midtown Manhattan can be quiet). Clean meant really clean. - Appreciated the free tea/coffee in the mornings - All in all a good value for your money

The room was small but very functional and had everything I needed during my stay. It's my second time staying at Pod39 because I like it so much. Staff was very friendly and switched me to a more quiet room. Both rooms that I had stayed this and last time were surprisingly quiet given the central location. You still hear a little bit of noise like ambulance but that's pretty much everywhere in Manhattan. Wifi was great, shower was hot. Has hairdryer. Also like the rooftop bar. A nice free perk the hotel added this year was free continental breakfast - it was a small selection of pastries, bagels, granola and fruit cups but I think that's a great perk.

The staff were very friendly, accommodating, making sure that the guest is comfortable and safe. I had an incident with a cab service i had booked to go to the airport, but it was a no-show. The reception intervened and assisted me every step of the way, quickly insuring me with a transportation service that reached the airport with perfect timing (though there was traffic AND i was late due to the initial no-show). This simply saved my trip and the transit. I am forever grateful <3 Absolutely amazing and convenient location, surrounded by eating spots and quick access to grand central. The complimentary morning tea and coffee were perfect especially with a bagel or viennoiserie available for purchase on the spot. My morning bagels quickly became a simple, comfy and fulfilling routine.
