Americana Inn

Clean - Very, very clean!!

Location goes with price. But this place, so close to Times Square was great! The rooms were very clean, and the many bathrooms(shared), were very clean, all the time. We were very impressed, and will definitely stay there again. One good surprize, we had a sink in our room. My only concern was the front door, while locked for security reasons, when we buzzed, always opened, but they never asked who we were. But at the same time there is no way you can sneak by the front desk anyway.

Inexpensive but better options available

On a recent trip to NY I stayed at 4 hotels. Three of them were lower rate hotels with the bath separate from the room . All were fine including the Americana but I have to say whatever cleaner they are using has an incredibly strong odor. (On the other hand it left no doubt the room had been cleaned!) I'm sorry but the cleaner odor was absolutely overpowering. The bathroom was very clean though (again with the odor). On the whole the hotel had a rather stark, antiseptic feel (tile floors etc.). The rooms were very small but that's to be expected. I felt the other hotels had a much more welcoming atmosphere for the same price. Also the location is on a rather seedy corner (not dangerous though). Not all of the 3 cheaper hotels had elevators but the Americana did which was nice.

NOT A BAD PLACE AT ALL

MY SISTER & I FOUND THIS LOCATION AS A RESULT OF A "LAST MINUTE" SITUATION. ALTHOUGH THE ROOM WAS VERY SMALL, IT FIT OUR NEED OF HAVING SOMEWHERE TO SLEEP FOR THE NIGHT. WE RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE ON A BUDGET WHO'S LOOKING FOR A CLEAN PLACE TO SLEEP.

Worth its money

Considering the great location, the hotel is certainly one of the best options for a cheap stay in downtown Manhattan. The rooms are small but nice, the only downside I could think of is that there is no shower or toilet in the room, but this didn't bother me very much. If you're looking for an inexpensive place to stay in Manhattan, the Americana is definitely a good choice.

Great location, no frills, but who needs them?

Great hotel in the heart of NYC... Rooms are small, but comfortable. Air conditioner was a bit noisy, but that is really my only "complaint." Great location, not a luxury hotel by any stretch of the imagination, but who would expect that of a one star hotel??? Great value for the money - comfortable beds, quiet surroundings (for NYC, that is!), and no problems with bathrooms in the hall - they were all clean and well kept.

Great room for the money

good location, overall a good deal for the money you pay.

Americana Inn

Overpriced for size of rooms. Otherwise good location and clean.

Great Value

Clean, convenient, comfortable bed. Basic but everything obviously recently renovated, very nice bathrooms. Like a really good basic little London hotel with better beds. Staff very pleasant and helpful. Very location for getting places.

Pleasantly Surprised

I was worried about the shared bathroom, but it turned out not to be a problem. There was 1 bathroom for every 4 rooms. we never had to wait, so it was like a private bath. we had fresh towels and amenities daily, that is better than many hotels I have stayed in, with a higher cost. This hotel was very clean, and the convenience was an added bonus. I will definately stay again.

satisfied.

I got what I needed for a reasonable price: very convenient location, safety, tidy room with clean towels and bed making everyday, and flexible cheking-in and out. Shared bathrooms (about one bathroom per 3-4 rooms) were always kept clean and available. TV in my room didn't show many channels, but was enough for me to check the weather on NY1. This is a hotel for those who has realistic expectation.
