Nothing major to report. Rooms were small but well equipped. Staff were pleasant and helpful. Location was a little out, but there was a station close by. For the price paid I was happy. More

I stayed there for two months and really liked the room I was given. The toilets are clean, though they do not clean your room without you paying a very high cleaning fee so we ended up cleaning our room ourselves. Another thing was that the heater never worked consistently and was often off during the coldest of days. We... More

This place was the worst! During the three weeks I was there I experienced rats, cockroaches, cold showers, and a dank dark room. When I complained, nothing was done, not even an apology. My room faced a tiny air-shaft, which meant that it was constantly pitch black in the room, even when it was sunny and bright outside. I reported... More

The room we stayed in had a comfortable, queen size bed, a big TV-screen (not that you need to use it while staying in NYC!) and a good but noisy AC. The towels were changed every day and the bed was made every day aswel. We use the common bathrooms...which were pretty luxurious! The tube is just a short walk... More

I stayed here before and really liked it, so I recommended we stay here when my family wanted to see New York. We booked 2 rooms for July 2012, and just 2 weeks ago received a strange email telling us about some housing law changes and that they have to cancel all bookings because of this, and that they were...

I telephoned Hotel 99 the day before my arrival to double check that my booking was in place. They told me that there had been 'a change to New York housing law' which meant that they had been forced to cancel all bookings. They did not email me or otherwise notify me of this change, leaving me high and dry... More

We booked a double room with private bathroom, and cannot fault it. The room was cleaned every day with fresh towels provided, the staff where friendly and helpful and the location was great. Only downside was the noise from the road, since our room was right on the front of the hotel. We bought earplugs from the hardware store downstairs... More

I booked this hotel about 4 weeks ago for a weekend in NY. Two weeks before the date of arrival I got an email from the hotel stating they canceled my booking. In fact it said that all bookings for May and onwards were canceled. Luckily my stay was still 2 weeks away, but for those who had booked for... More

I was so impressed with Hotel 99. From the very start and throughout our stay the staff were friendly, chatty and very helpful, providing us with a list of local restaurants and bars. The entire hotel was very clean, especially the shared bathrooms, not a stray hair in sight! Yes the rooms are on the smaller side but as its... More
