The hotel boasts a unique blend of vibrant locations nearby, but the service falls short of expectations. While my room had a nice layout and was relatively quiet, I faced significant issues with the internet connection and several in-room amenities. The value for money isn't great considering the state of the facilities and the overall experience.

I had an unfortunate experience at this hotel, as one of the rooms was filthy, while the other was just okay. The difference in quality was shocking given they were the same price. Though it's in a decent location with good access to attractions, the state of cleanliness and upkeep left much to be desired. Save your money and consider other options nearby.

The first floor room was absolutely disgusting, with a running toilet, hair on the sheets, and a ripped curtain rod. The second floor room was significantly better but still not nice.

I stayed at this hotel that has a fantastic location right in the heart of Chinatown, surrounded by plenty of affordable Chinese restaurants. While the layout of my room was nice and it had some appealing features, the condition of the hotel really needs a lot of attention. The Wi-Fi was practically unusable, which made it difficult for me to work. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this place if you're looking for cleanliness and reliability.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the location is fantastic with lots of dining options and the room was larger than I expected, the cleanliness left much to be desired. The service was a significant downside, especially regarding the management's handling of a missing item. Overall, it was decent value for NYC, but I wouldn't recommend it to others due to the service issues.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed bag. While the location is fantastic with plenty of nearby restaurants and close access to the metro, I encountered several issues that impacted my overall experience. The staff was generally polite and helpful, but the room conditions left much to be desired, particularly regarding cleanliness and proper maintenance. Despite the low price, I think next time I'll look elsewhere.

The Winsdor Hotel has some nice features, like a generally clean environment and decent layout, but I faced a serious issue with a damp mattress that made my stay uncomfortable. Additionally, the internet connection is incredibly unreliable, which was frustrating during my work trip. While the price is comparatively cheap, the issues with the rooms and amenities are not ideal.

I had a pretty rough experience at this hotel. The first room was filthy, with stains on the sheets and towels, and the toilet ran non-stop. Although the second room was slightly better, it still didn't meet my expectations. I will not be staying here again. On the plus side, the location was convenient for exploring the city, but overall, it's not worth the hassle.

The Windsor Hotel is a decent budget choice for those looking to explore NYC without breaking the bank. The location is perfect for walking around downtown and accessing the subway easily. While the room was larger than expected, there were some cleanliness issues and a musty smell. Overall, it offers good value for money, especially for the price, but I wouldn't recommend staying here if cleanliness is a top priority.
