Great price, the location was fairly close to broadway, and many restaurants. You can be in Time Square in less than 30 min walking. The room is small, we were tired so we slept well, but there the walls are thin, so you can hear many sounds at night. For a night or two is great. Also they offer parking a property around the corner, so that was great, we probably will be back.

Pod 39 is in an excellent location for getting pretty well anywhere in the city; it's easy to walk and to get public transport. The room was comfortable and quiet, and the staff was nice.

Great Crash Pad !

The rooms are small but with the name Pod you expect that. Not in the most buzzing part of Manhattan, which was what I wanted but may not be what you do. Only about 5 mins walk from Grand Central and 15 mins to Time Square. For the price this is an excellent Manhattan hotel. If like me you just want a student some like experience to crash in and will otherwise enjoy the delights of NYC, this is a great hotel for you in midtown.

Great location all you need for a short stay !!!

The hotel was clean, tidy, functional and great for a short stay. We actually recommended it directly to a friend who came and joined us there and also enjoyed their stay. The location was in easy access of most things.

A wonderful stay in a unique hotel

I’m now a fan of the Pod Hotels. This is our third stay. What is impressive is how cleverly space is used with thoughtful touches that make a guest feel welcome. On the whole, you know you are getting value for your money. Pod 39 is in a good location especially for those who enjoy exploring the city on foot or by public transit or a combination of both. We appreciated the warmth and courtesy of the staff who really wanted our stay to meet our expectations. This went a long way because in an older building little things can go awry for example, the wait for the elevator seemed long. But I also remember missing the weight of my blanket at home. The staff was quick to provide an extra one. It’s a nice option o be offered a free walking tour and free luggage storage after check out. The other Pod hotels are new construction. But I liked the midtown location of Pod 39, so close to Grand Central and an easy stroll to the Lexington subway. Pod hotels are not luxe but they are good value. I would recommend them highly.
