Convenient location for Javits Center business. Fun cafes and markets right around corner. Three blocks from restaurant row. Very clean. Very very friendly and helpful staff - Fernando is also an amazingly friendly guy! Really met all Of our needs. Thanks 544! We will def be back!

This hotel was okay. Used to having the linens changed daily and they only did this once. However, the hotel was conveniently located for my trip and I will stay there again.

I was impressed by the comfort of the beds, the cleanliness and appearance of the bathroom and the self-catering facilities. The cooking area is a little close to the bed but there iis adequate space. The manager was helpful and friendly - carried my case upstairs without a second thought. All locks use a key code so there is no worry about losing or […] keeping track of a key. A nice quiet location for the area, close to both Metro, Bus Station and Ferry Port. Perfect for the traveller who does not want to eat out all the time and is willing to do a little cooking. No elevator and very steep stairs so not for those with problems climbing stairs! I was looking for a hotel I can use regularly and I have found it. Read more

good value, including a kitchenette in the room, and convenient to Time Square area. Actually quieter staying on the street where it is located.

The room was clean. There was a mini kichen with a fridge, a stove, and a microwave. The bed was confortable, but it was short. It was OK for me because I am not tall. I wish the hotel had a elevator.

The hotel is updated (newly converted from apartments), and is very nice and clean inside. The main door and your room each have a code, so you don't have to haul around a key/key card with you. Conveniently located, depending on where you are going in the city, and so easy to get around. I would stay at Hotel Five44 again, and would recommend it to […] my friends. Read more

This is more like renting an apartment than staying in a hotel. This hotel is not fancy by any stretch, is on 48th b/t 11th and 12th (so not terribly centrally located) and doesn't have concierges, bellhops, room service, etc. That being said, it's quiet, it's clean, it's not expensive by NY standards, is close enough to Times Square/midtown to be semi-convenient […] and the superintendant is helpful and friendly. There are many NY hotels that could not boast those positive attributes, so I would stay here again. Definitely enough good things at this price point where it's worth it. Read more

The Hotel Five44 seems appealing--a budget, 3-star hotel in midtown, but you get what you pay for. It is located on the far west side, in an area with many car dealerships, but few restaurants and no convenient subway station. The neighborhood is improving, but still scruffy, with drug-rehabs and flophouses jostling a growing number of hotels. We felt […] nervous in the street, and the hotel has no desk attendant, so extra cab fares ate up what we saved by not staying elsewhere. It’s a multistory walkup with steep stairs; so don't bring luggage. Rooms are tiny and simply, but newly furnished. Our “queen size” bed was so short that, with the top of my head against the headboard, my feet stuck out 8” past the foot of the bed, making sleep difficult. The in-room kitchenette was a nice idea, but dirty, with gunk on many surfaces. We bought bleach and rags and sprayed and scrubbed the entire place down before using the sink, fridge, toilet or shower. We wrapped the pillows in clothes or jackets, since we didn’t have time to launder them. The building superintendent provides fresh towels daily and toilet paper on request, but no paper towels or trash pickup. Sheets and bed covers were stained (blood?) and unappetizing. Temperature control was spotty, as was internet access. Maybe OK for an extended stay of weeks or months, where the investment in moving in and cleaning up would be repaid by later savings, but a poor choice for a short stay. Read more

Very quiet neighborhood, nice rooms, back away from the hustle and bustle but still everything within walking distance. We were on the 3rd floor, and the room was quite warm, but other than that - great stay.

Very good service.Good with the mini-kitchen.

Wonderful Service, great location. Our stay was great! The only think we'd recommend is an additional trash bin in the room and perhaps an in room telephone, but that may be due to the increase use of cell phones.

I thought that the hotel was great! The info on it says that it's a partial service hotel but they cleaned the room and made the beds each day. True there is no front desk but you deal with a guy who lives in the building, just knock on the door. Wi-fi works great, tv worked fine, and the guy (Fernando) who deals with keys and payment is really nice […] and helpful. I've read some negative reviews online about this place and I'm glad to say that they're wrong. True, there is no room service and if you need a full service hotel, you should look for one, but if you need a clean room with a kitchenet and internet, it's really great! Read more

Don't get fooled by picture. There was no tv channels, no wifi internet, no front desk with multilingual speaker. No way to control room temperature. We had same bed sheet for 4 nights. Room is dirty, no view, no house keeping. Look for somewhere else. Please research and read many reviews. This is why room is so cheap. Spend little extra for some […] other hotel. Read more

We enjoyed our stay in this hotel very much. The rooms are nicely designed and the bathroom is huge!! Everything is new and clean. Free WIFI, great speed. I would defiantly come back to this hotel. There is no elevator however Fernando the 24/7 guy helps you carry your luggage so it does not really matter

This place feels like an apartment building, which was actually very nice experience. The small kitchenette was great addition and comfortable. It was nice to be able to cook breakfast in your hotel room. The rooms are not big but everything is brand new. The shower is huge. Few blocks from Times Square and very close to the Intrepid museum. Walking […] distance to the restaurant raw on 46 street and Broadway theaters. Beds are little short but was fine with us. we got a great price for January visit and we will consider coming back next time Read more

We found this to be most dissapointing and misleading. This is a tiny studio room in a small unserviced building, there was no 24 hr front desk or multilingual staff. At the address there was no signage, you may actually miss it. When you arrive, you wait outside in the cold until the one staff member rolls out of his bed on the ground floor to let […] you in. He doesn't speak much English though so it is hard to ask questions. You are then handed a crumpled post-it note with a code to get into your room and a key for the front door. Don't forget your key, because this is not like a hotel, you won't get back in. The building is not attended except for the times he expects a new arrival. We had no toiletries or even toilet paper in our room, when we asked for toilet paper we were grudgingly handed one roll and told to buy some. The room itself is over heated, this can't be turned down, is unclean, the carpet made me want to keep my shoes on and it is cramped. The queen size bed is a unique size, I'm 5'3" and my feet were at the end. The bathroom was nice, much nicer than the room itself (byo hairdryer!) and there was Internet provided so this room is fine for a cost conscious traveller, it just shouldn't be described as a hotel at all. I found it to be like a private room hostel. I personally would not stay again and wouldn't recommend my friends there, to me it is worth the little extra to be comfortable on holiday. Read more

generally a good hotel, but everything is a little unorganized; the beds are quite short; no breakfast; central location but constructions around the hotel

Genuine Expedia guest review

1. I stayed in the hotel three nights, and the room was never cleaned. 2. I ran out of soap in the room and had to buy my own. 3. There was no front desk or employee I could speak with. There was never a hotel employee in the building except for the person who checked me in. He appeared to be a custodian, and he spoke no English. 4. No one could give […] me the password for the free Wi-Fi that was promised. 5. The refrigerator in the room didn't work. 6. There was no way to turn the heat down, and the room was roasting. 7. There was no sign on the outside, and it was very difficult to find the hotel. 8. The hotel's phone had been disconnected. This was a terrible hotel. Do yourself a favor and stay someplace else.

Only problem i had was the size of the bed! apart from that top notch place to stay

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Bra läge och pris, dessutom nyrenoverat! Hade dock önskar mer städning. Under en veckas tid gjordes inte golven rena en enda gång och inte heller lakanen byttes under denna tid. Handdukar byttes dock varje dag. Frukost ingick ej. Sängarna var ca 170 cm långa vilket gjorde att fötterna och delar av underbenen dinglade utanför - stort minus för det. Men […] ok som helhet pga fräsh nyrenovering, läge och pris. Read more

Kan verkligen rekommendera detta hotell om ni är ute efter ett rent fräscht rum med lite avskilt läge men ändå nära till allt i Midtown.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Tyckte att det var överlag bra. Hotellet låg i lite ruffiga kvarter men var ändå rätt nära till centrum. Pentrydelen var bra. Porslin och dyligt fräscht. Lite jobbigt utan hiss med tanke på tunga resväskor.

Hotel agréable , petit et situé à 15 mn à pied du quartier de Times Square. Le gardien est très bien, toujours prêt à répondre à nos demandes. La chambre est classique-bien, bien équipée en kitchenette et CALME. Le lit est un peu trop ferme à mon goût, mais bon, ce n'est pas bien grave ! On a passé un très bon séjour ici

Enkel standard är helt ok MEN här är det smutsigt, rent av äckligt i badrum/dusch. Trots påpekande städades det inte rent under de 5 nätter vi bodde där. Dessutom bör man inte vara längre än 160 cm om man vill få plats i sängen, vi är 170 - 175 cm och fick sova med fötterna utanför... Under vår vistelse (april 2013) pågick ett bygge tvärs över gatan, […] arbetet med pålning och diverse höga borrljud drog igång ca 06.45 VARJE dag... Har bott på flertalet hotell i New York men detta var det i särklass sämsta... inte värt kostnaden! Read more

Mas que un hotel, yo lo llamaría apartahotel... No tiene una recepción al uso ni cartel de hotel por ningún sitio.La habitación es cómoda, con una pequeña cocina , eche en falta jabón para fregar. Cambian las toallas todos los días y te hacen la habitación. La zona no es muy bonita, pero en 15 minutos andando estas en Times Square. Y a 2m del Intrepid […] Museum. Si tengo que ponerle alguna pega, el caudal de agua de la ducha era muy pobre. Calidad-precio muy bien? Ah...no tiene ascensor (3alturas) Read more

La chambre était très bien pour 5 jours, cependant lors de mon Check-in je suis restée 30 minutes dehors en essayant d'appeler le numéro de téléphone de l'hôtel (qui n'est plus attribuer) avant d'avoir eu la chance de croiser qqlun qui travaillait pour l'hôtel. Il n'y a pas d'espace commun et le wifi de l'hôtel ne marche pas, j'ai du utiliser un autre […] wifi. Le sèche-cheveux n'était pas installer lors de mon arrivée. La chambre était toujours propre à.

This a new hotel, I have checked other places but luckily I found this one. A few blocks from Times Square, and close to buses and subway, you can walk everywhere from here. Rooms are great, confortable, clean, with a small kitchen and fridge, nice 32" tv, and excellent bathrooms. There is no service, but Fernando would help you with everything and […] Molly the manager will do as well. This is an apart hotel so the service is not your goal here. There is not an elevator like in many of these buildings so if you have trouble with that is something to consider but really not a problem for me. The price is excellent also. The sorroundings are great, you can walk at 4 am in around with no problem. Many stores and bars close by. You can't ask for more really. I would come back at any time. Enjoy NYC! Read more
