Great location - easy to walk to all places and close to transport links. Hotel lobby is up stairs and off the Main Street. There is a communal seating area and a bar on this level too. Lifts to all rooms are accessed by using key card. As a solo traveller the area felt very safe and the hotel felt safe and secure. 24 hour reception - staff I dealt with were friendly. Area to store luggage once you check out. Check out is only at 12pm. Rooms were immaculately clean. They had everything I needed, including shampoo and conditioner plus a hairdryer. I booked a bunk room but got given a double bed which was great!! I would most certainly recommend this hotel and will consider staying here again on my next visit.
Great location at walking distance from main attractions and Landmarks in NYC. Reasonable price, the pods are clean and comfortable. Highly recommend.
Great location, clean, friendly
We enjoyed a queen room on the 4th floor. It's the service at the front desk and the custodial staff that I really appreciate. So friendly, so clean, so responsive. Rooms are small, but we don't linger and instead get out and enjoy NYC. The location is excellent, the queen-size has a longer space for toiletries in the bathroom than the bunk pod, if this matters. I did ask to be changed to a different queen when the heat kicked on and the motor was loud. But the change was done with good grace and quickly. The morning cafe has good coffee, really tasty yogurt parfaits, and morning sweets at reasonable prices for NYC.
Good location and staff!! I will be coming back
Cleanliness
Friendly staff
Iron/Broad available upon request
Good. Wish I knew you could request an iron/board from front desk. Maybe mention that somewhere. Also, option to access a refrigerator would be great.
The pod hotel is two blocks from port authority bus station and mins away from Times Square! It’s relatively quieter than most neighbourhood and the price of the hotel is reasonable. The only issue I had was the “resort” fee. What is this?
We stay here everytime we come to NYC, which is often because we are from upstate. We park in Jersey and train to manhattan so parking isn’t an issue in our case. These are Affordable rooms , they’re clean , the size is all you need for even 2 people ,walk in waterfall showers with hot water, close to all things you’d want to do out in this area including trains / subways for transportation to other areas of the city, staff is friendly / will hold luggage , wonderful views from floor to cieling windows , usually we are able to check in early and this round we did a late checkout for no fee. The bartenders are always awesome as well when you go down for happy hour. You’re also right by a 24/7 deli with great food as well as a convenience store 2 doors down. I recommend to anyone coming this way. It doesn’t have to cost you $500 a night to stay right by Times Square. Give this place a try if you’re thinking about it!

Very efficient, excellent bathroom. The air flow noise and heater were very noisy.
The location and the price were wonderful. The bedside light was out, and the power switches and dryer were really sticky (yuck!). I'll bring disinfecting wipe next time.
Rangers fans take on NYC
It was pretty much what I expected. Staff was great! Basic NYC room.
Small but great. Loved the gym with the view.
Perfect for a short stay in the city where all you need is a place to sleep and shower!
What a great find! Excellent location within walking distance of everything in the NYC midtown area, also very close to the subway and bus station. Many restaurants on 9th Avenue. The hotel is modern and had everything we needed. Compact layout of the room, which was perfect for us and our stay. We even enjoyed a view from the room on the Hudson River. I highly recommend Pod Times Square for a visit in New York City! Super!
Second time there. We had a great view.
An absolutely amazing stay and was close to everything definitely staying there again
Clean and Best Rates
Best deals in NYC. Yes, tiny rooms but clean and really cool vibe.
We had a great stay.

Already made many great reviews for the Pod
Easy access to Times Square.
More often than not when I travel to see relatives in NJ, I build in a day to get over jet lag in NYC. Every time I go to POD Hotel Times Square as they are exactly what I need; a clean place with a comfy bed and a nice shower located near every major NYC mass transit line I want to take. No notes.
Practical space, cheapest hotel i could find in the area. 15 min walk to javits center and MSG huge plus
Pleasantly surprised
This was my first stay at Pod Times Square and I would definitely stay again. The room was clean and very well organized. Yes, the space is small, but it includes everything you need exactly where you need it. My only complaint is the elevator (you need to take two elevators up and down), but I realize this must have been an architectural adaptation. Coffee in the room would be a big plus, but it's not so far away.
No food served at restaurant. No fine dining in the area.
Thank you front desk for your service
Great location, great amenities, clean.
GOOD DEAL!
GREAT STAY....NICE ROOM, COMFORTABLE AND GREAT LOCATION!
Convenient to MSG
Nice location
No frills but price was right
So glad we discovered this hotel. Super affordable, very functional without feeling cheap. No frills but we didn’t need them. Bunk beds were comfortable. TVs didn’t work but it wasn’t a big deal. Location was fine, maybe a couple blocks away from the main tourist areas but didn’t feel sketchy. Will stay here again.
Very clean, daily service !
I absolutely love this place so beautiful and nice people at front desk
It was good, rooms were small but that’s what you pay for. I didn’t like the vibe in the hallways upstairs.
Scammed me.
I booked a room for day trip in New York. Upon check in I have noticed a sharp chemical smell from the bedsheets. The front desk staff were unable to switch the room due to availability. After a short deliberation I elected to cancel my stay due to concerns about the smell. The hotel charged me the full stay fee and refused refund.
I was thoroughly impressed with this hotel. It was very minimal but had a lot of necessities. It would have been nice to have a mini fridge in the room!
I love everything abt this property except the water wasn’t hot.it was lukewarm which is ok that the only issue I had.the body wash coulda been refill but dats all abt it
Read above.
basic
simple and affordable
I had a great stay at Pod Times Square Hotel! The staff was wonderful—friendly, helpful, and made check-in a breeze. The location was perfect, just a quick walk to all the places I needed to go, which made exploring the city super convenient. The room was clean and comfortable, but I do wish it had a fridge and a microwave for added convenience. Overall, a solid choice for a stay in NYC if you don’t need those extra amenities. Would definitely consider staying again!
Always love staying at Pod!
Always enjoy staying at Pod. Clean rooms, excellent service, and I love hanging in their lobby.
Clean, comfortable, good location. Staff was so kind and friendly.
Its small and affordable for people who need a place to sleep while exploring the city. It has easy access to the subway.
The bathroom is not very private but other then that it was clean and the employees were very friendly and helpful.
Location Near to all the facilities. Metro. Shopping mall and the most vibrant area the time square
Perfect and affordable
Love it 👍
good location, easy access to public transportation
Great hotel in time square
Great service great location in Times Square in Manhattan couldn’t find a better spot that is close to everything very clean. I think one of the best place to stay in New York City
Clean, friendly and efficient staff, great location...
Great location, but poor experience. Our first room ended up flooding due to a leak and we were relocated to a different room without any notification until we got to the hotel and tried going into our room. Our next room was better, but the water drained very slowly in the sink and shower. Location was perfect, but hotel experience was not enjoyable.
I really enjoyed my stay here. I’m a big fanof pod hotels, and New York is one of my favorite places to be, so this was great for a wonderfulstaycation. The only draw back that I found was that the TV only had the news as an entertainment option. I didn’t find it to be too big of a deal, due to the purpose of my visit. I definitely will stay here again!
I really enjoyed this hotel, will be going again :)
The rooms are perfect for a single traveler. And the location is terrific.
I loved the location. It was walkable distance to the subway and other attractions in the city. The staff was very helpful and kind when we needed assistance or had any questions!
Me and my boyfriend stayed at Pod Times Sqaure for the weekend and we absolutely loved it, super clean, comfortable!! No complaints
We loved it, perfect for our needs!
I arrived way before check-in time but I was given a room immediately - a big help, obviously. Like the location, right at the Port authority.
It’s affordable, time square is within walking distance
Very friendly staff, great location, nothing extremely fancy but exactly what we needed.
Good
The room looked like someone else had been staying in it - cleaning had been negligent at best, and simply not done at worst.
The water did not really get hot we asked a few times but nothing got done .
I like everything about it!
Great budget option. I do wish it was a little closer to the subway stop, but that is the only potential issue for me. Staff was excellent. Beds comfortable and everything was clean.
Amazing stay!
I love their staff, very professional and friendly and the room was a bit bigger than I imagined. It was clean. Highly recommended!
Very well located, I asked for a quiet room and was upgraded. Room was quiet, small but a good size for one person. Staff very friendly. Small problems: usb charger by the bed wasn't working. No outlet near the desk to charge computer (there's one below but didn't fit my charger adaptor). Sheets a bit worn out (starting to tear) The only thing that I'd really complaint is that there's no proper blackout. The blinds have a big gap and the room is bright as soon as the sun rises, if you're a light sleep like myself, even with eye mask it gets too bright by 6-7am in winter.
Great location
Great location. Very clean.
It was quiet and convenient. The staff was helpful and friendly.
Great location at Midtown, near to Port Authority (150 meters)
Great economic option at prime location, easy access to Times Square and transportation, bed and pillow weren’t the most comfortable
Amazing Time!!!
Excellent experience
Enjoyed my stay. This hotel is walking distance to everything. Will be back soon!
We enjoyed our stay
Great location! Close enough to subway but at a good distance from Times Square where you are not near all the craziness! Staff was nice and they store your bags after check out if you’re like me and want to continue exploring the city before your flight.
incredible small room, well designed, extremely reasonable, great staff FOUR STARS :)
Love it
Love it
Exelent
Best hotel for a escape 😍
Second time staying there. As a lone traveler, it has everything I need, which admittedly is not a lot.
Very clean, perfect cozy sized room for two people. I would stay here again.
Clean, convenient, no-hassle stay!
Convenient location
Good location & easy walk to the Javitts center, but the bed was extremely firm. Good quiet bar, but no food service in the hotel. Price was on par for the small room. If you just need a bed & bath without all the frills, then this is a good deal.
Close to everything, clean and the staff is great. Cool happy hour too!
spent 5 nights with my son. great option for long or short stay. friendly staff, safe neigbourhood. very excessible to subways.
The hotel was in a great location. The staff was amazing and friendly. I love that they kept our luggage after checkout due to a late flight.
yes
All was fine. Comfortable bed
very good
Excellent location. Clean and comfortable rooms.
Clean and friendly!
The hotel staff they’re very friendly,everyday offer room service,very comfortable beds,clean,quiet and affordable price I will come back!
Amazing place
We are 49 years old and they put us on a room with Litera, also the room doesn’t have a C type charger
The staff were the best :-) thank you!!
Tried the Pod for a 2night stay for Broadway shows. 42nd and 9th feel very unsafe walking back from theatre after the show. Overall would pay more to be right in theatre area. Traveled with my teenage daughter and felt very unsafe after dark. We stayed in the bunk bed room for fun. Room very nice, super small but that was fine. Beds hard as a rock haha. Wouldn’t do that again. Overall Pod property is nice, just the area wasn’t ideal. Wonderful staff.
I recommend this very pleasant, clean, affordable, hotel in central NY!
