Search Castles in Howard Beach from CA $126

Easily walkable to/from Penn Station, Times Square etc. Staff were great, friendly and always willing to help. My only minor issue was the hotel is on a street that did not LOOK all that safe, it was dark and had some sketchy looking individuals. However I do want to stress that at no point was I worried something might occur, just be aware that it appears to look scarier than it is. We are spending another night in NYC after our cruise and I was hoping to stay here again, but unfortunately...

My son and I were “stuck” in NYC for 2 nights due to the global internet fiasco. With literally no reasonably priced rooms with more than 1 bed, I used filters to drill down and found Pod. What a cool place!!! The location could not be better for the walking tourist, and the concept is genius. What a fantastic use of space and a focus on cleanliness. If I ever find myself in NYC, I won’t be looking for a place to stay, I’ll be staying at Pod.

Solid choice

Central location and large room. Easy access to subway and citi bikes. Appreciated the mini fridge and good AC. Front desk staff were very helpful throughout the whole stay and went out of their way to make our trip enjoyable. Would recommend to anyone looking to stay in midtown.

Kind and helpful staff don’t really feel the need to review the facilities because that’s just corporate crap

It was a great place to stay-6 minutes from grand central everywhere was walkable. We had accessible restaurants and breakfast spots around the corner. We felt very safe. Would recommend

Nice hotel very well situated

The staff were extremely friendly and helpful from the moment we checked in. The younger gentleman that checked us in was so kind and answered a lot of our questions. Plus the cookie and water bottle was a nice surprise! The property is close to the ferry and Wall Street. You can walk to so many different attractions from the hotel which was very nice. The hotel was modern, the elevator was brutal and the rooms did have quite a few stains on the beds.

I often don't leave reviews for stays but this hotel was actually really amazing. Everyone is happy and eager to help. I couldn't really find a single flaw about this hotel and its services. Looking forward to staying at bigger rooms in the future!

Well located and good price. Staff is friendly and helpfull.

Everything was excellent!

Receptionist went above and beyond.

Beautiful hotel, calm & upscale atmosphere, GREAT FOOD!!

Walked to Times Square. Rode the ACE line downtown to see comedy at the cellar. Also to Chelsea Market and Highline. Went uptown to Hayden Planetarium and spent an afternoon walking central park. Dinner at Norma's and Sunset Blvd on Broadway. Concert at pier 17 rooftop. Breakfast at Gemini diner on 2nd. Nice walk. Blueberry pancakes.

Location is great! Very clean and front desk staff are very helpful! Rooms are small - the perfect place for anyone who won’t be spending much of the day in their hotel room
