It’s a nice spot for walking around the tourist areas in nyc. But it’s a bit dated, in comparison to the newer hotels

The staff was friendly and checkout was fairly easy. However, this hotel needs a renovation desperately. There were holes in the hallway and the rooms felt damp.
The hotel is a bit older and and dated however, the beds are amazing and the linens and sheets are exceptional. They have really soft pillows and the cleaning staff is amazing. I stayed there for 20 nights every day. My bed was made, and it was just pristine. I would stay here again. It’s in a great location.
This was a pleasant place to stay. We had a good experience there with a clean room and friendly staff. My 2 minor issues were a luke-warm shower one of the days and 1 of the 3 elevators that was a little “quirky” like not wanting to close the door for 1-2 minutes. Other than those things it was a good place to stay in midtown.
The AC worked great and the property is in a good location for Time Square. It definitely needs some updates but overall it was quiet at night and convenient for our stay.
I liked this hotel so much, check in was easy, our room was ok and clean, and housekeeping personal was very nice. the location was also great!

The location of the Gallivant is great! A very short walk to Broadway, Times Square, subway and more. The room was clean, beds were firm (which I like). However the elevator was extremely slow and door wouldn't shut properly numerous times which prevented the elevator from going. So much so, that we usually chose to take the stairs. The front desk staff and housekeepers were very friendly. I would stay here again.
Fantastic location and great shareable rooms - we had one bed and a bunkbed set up for three of us to share. Small spaces but it's NY! The front desk staff was helpful but a bit standoffish at first.
Room was clean and comfortable. Front desk and baggage check were polite and helpful. A great overnight stay, conveniently located to theaters I was seeing shows at.
The property is in the heart of the theatre district and Times Square. The staff was very nice and helpful with questions that came up during the week. Chris who took care of my daily room service was outstanding. This is my second stay and would recommend it highly with this caviat: be sure to check the square footage of the room you book as some of the rooms are very small otherwise would recommend without hesitation.
Outside of a terrific location in Times Square. The room is tiny and the bed is way too short!!!
Bugs in the Shower, made for a very uncomfortable "cleanse."
Won't stay here ever again.
