Room was spotless, looks exactly like what you see in the pictures. Definitely will be staying here again!
I enjoyed my stay and will be booking again within a week! It was quiet and peaceful.
If you’re looking for groceries there is a Trader Joe’s near right across the street. But I would not recommend going to the deli that’s around the corner because they will schem your lightning, lightning lightning lightning
The room was very nice, and the hotel is in a great location, close to the subway and restaurants. But I should have got my access code before I checked in, not the day after.

The accommodations were well-maintained, and the hotel's location is highly desirable, directly opposite the train station and surrounded by numerous dining establishments. The sole area for improvement identified was the check-in process, which proved to be quite cumbersome.
Great location… had to go to NYU Langone in Manhattan … had issues with elevators (1 was not available) … had 1 comforter - should have had another one … no toaster or oven … no steak knives …

Great location, although a bit noisy due to the subway station and the construction on the other side of the road, which made it hard to sleep without earplugs. Also very friendly staff! However, it was hard to reach anyone after checking out because I thought I had forgot something in the apartment.

Largest room I’ve ever had in New York - full size refrigerator, space to work out in the room, a good table to work at. Super easy commute into midtown via the 7 and E. Check-in - once you access the code - is fine and there’s cleaning every day. Beware that the nightly thumping from the club next door can be heard despite the ear plugs they provide.
I'll split my review into two parts - the property itself, and the service and check in process.
It is a former Sonder property (Sonder infamously went bust in Nov 2025). I've stayed at Sonder before, always enjoyed it, and this one is among the top end of my stays. The entire apartment is spotlessly clean, comfortable bed, fully stocked kitchen, and spare towels that should last for a long term stay. It is good to see that such a nice property is being made available again for short term stays.
On the other hand, the new management company (Bellevue District 6, seems to be part of OYO) needs to put more emphasis on providing a smooth guest experience. I had problems with check in (two different room numbers and two different codes provided, one via phone, the other via Expedia message), neither of which worked. Having called again, I was told that one of the codes is correct but to a third room. All good from there until the third day when the code stopped working and I again had to call and wait for a callback to fix the code. I saw other people also trying their codes on seemingly wrong rooms, or on the phone in the lobby to get access codes sorted.
It's a great property, but since there is no front desk, the online communication with guests and providing timely and correct check in instructions should be the highest priority. Sadly there's quite some way to go for the new management to get it properly working. Hopefully it's just initial growing pains.

Overall, this location was good. The room was clean and spacious, but there was a club/bar on the main floor, and you could hear the thumping of the bass throughout the night, even though the room was on the 9th floor. If you're a light sleeper, I wouldn't recommend this location.

Convenient location, very close to subway lines that take you to Manhattan in just a few minutes. Clean property with everything you need. A supermarket and diner are just a few steps away, with other restaurants nearby.
The only downside: the nearby subway can be noisy — if you're a light sleeper, bring earplugs

Great accomodation for a week long stay. The location is perfect with access to multiple subway trains into Manhattan and to JFK, as well as many options for food and drink. The room was clean and spacious, especially the bathroom. Great having access to kitchen facilities even though we didn't end up using it much. Staff was helpful and the complimentary luggage storage was appreciated!
