Pod39 was like staying in a nicely furnished prison cell with a private bath. It was perfect for what I needed. The staff was very courteous and helpful. I did not use the amenities at all, so cannot comment on their usefulness.

We have arrived early and the staff let us chek in early because the room was ready. The staff was very helpful, answering all our questions during the stay and helped us with a smile always. The room was great too and nothing was missing.
Verified review

6/10 Good

The Pod 39's staff were friendly and helpful. My room had a comfortable bed (upgraded gratis from double- to queen-sized), and the bath facilities were well-designed and clean. Generally, I appreciate the Pod 39's minimalist aesthetic and the competitive pricing.that result from it, but in my case this jewel had a flaw: my second-floor room was located near a loud HVAC unit that groaned on an off all night long. Fortunately my active noise-cancelling earbuds were comfortable enough to sleep with; I would have spent a miserable night without them. I will consider staying at Pod 39 again but would be certain to perform a sound-check before settling into my assigned room.

Was a cost efficient stay for a 1 night over. Gave us great access to the city while be convening to catch the train to and from the airport. The staff were helpful, the room was tiny, but as expected. It had what we needed, and saved us a bit of money to stay in the city.

Great vibe. Perfect for a stay in NY. Clean, compact room. Friendly staff and centrally located. A no-frills room as expected, but perfect for sleeping and priced well. I’d stay here again.

The hotel was in a very convenient location, just a short walk from Grand Central Terminal and Park Avenue. The staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive, making me feel welcome throughout my stay. I’m so glad I chose to stay there. A big plus was the beautiful rooftop access and the complimentary coffee each morning. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and I would happily stay there again.

Very clean and convenient. A bit small room, but I guess the name of the hotel is self-explanatory. Great place to stay if you are looking for a clean, safe, convenient, and affordable place in NYC.

Unique find for this price. I’ve stayed at many hotels in New York, but never been as happy as here. The rooms are small, but very well fitted, clean and with good aircondition. And the rest of the hotel, from common areas to the rooftop and bar was great. Staff was very welcoming and cool too. 10/10 would recommend
