The Park Ave North — Hotel in New York

Let me start with the hotel itself: the rooms are small, but neat and clean and the hotel is great for a (short) city trip in New York. The people at the reception are very friendly and it is possible to leave your luggage. The beds are nice, but small. I'm only 1.75 tall and the bed was too short for me. ||Keep in mind that there is little to no space to store your belongings/suitcases in the room because it is small. Please also note that there is no elevator and that you have to go up/down high, narrow stairs with your suitcases. Finally, the hotel is very very noisy: when the neighbors talk at a normal volume, you can literally hear what they are saying. In addition, a train passes by the hotel which you can hear very well. If you sleep with earplugs you will not have any problems with this. ||Considering the price of the hotel, I think this is a fine hotel for New York! So I would recommend it, but keep the above things in mind!||||THE NEIGHBOURHOOD|The biggest disadvantage of the hotel was the location. Of course, the hotel can't do anything about this, but it really did affect our experience, so that’s why I want to mention it. ||The street of the hotel is neat, but as soon as you walk further into the neighborhood to go to the metro you don't feel safe. The neighborhood and the restaurants on Dr. Martin Luther King Boulevard are dirty and impoverished. Many junkies hang around the entire neighborhood and the metro stations, shouting a lot and exhibiting scary behavior. As a result, it often does not feel safe to be here and we often did not feel comfortable (also in restaurants).||My tip is to only take the nearest subway at 125th Lexington (green line) and not to hang around in the neighborhood and not to respond to the junkies. When you do this, it's okay for the price you pay...||If you want a little more comfort and a quiet, safe neighborhood or if you are traveling as a woman, I advise you to pay more and stay in a different...

I was in NYC for medical reasons. Needed a convenient location since we’d be ride-sharing to and from the medical center daily for 10 days. We stayed in a 2 bed with private bath. Nice sized room. Desk/counter, 1 chair, nightstand, Bench, good sized mini fridge and a coffee maker. Free WiFi. Walk-in shower. Bath: Tile floors. Room: Hardwood floors, no Carpet! Air conditioned and a heater was provided. We had 1 Large sized Twin and 1 Large sized Full/Queen bed. Hotel sits at the corner. There are STEPS, maybe 10 stairs to get to the main door. Coded entry and a Tap feature for your room. After hours check-in/check-out. Outside relaxing area. No Smoking inside the property. We were a block or two away from the city stores and eateries. Maybe a 10 minute ride to Central Park. Each ride was about $7-$10 one-way. The Staff and Housekeeping were very nice. Since we stayed longer, we opted for no housekeeping. It is available, if you like. The room was very neat and clean. We brought along a electric skillet for our meals. The freezer held 3 bags of the frozen bag meals. They also provided black washcloths to prevent staining. I liked that. Storage shelf in the bathroom. Room: Storage shelf with hangers and hooks. There was a Safe to use. I really enjoyed my stay. When I do return to that area, I Will stay there again.||Cons: Not ADA accessible ||Steps-only because I had surgery.||TV-though it was mounted, it doesn’t have a swivel. So it just faces the large bed.||Overall, I Did enjoy my stay. 100%||There was 1 issue, a guest was smoking inside, but it was handled. No other issues. Nice lighting in the room and bathroom, if your wearing makeup or tryin to get a...
