Bowery Grand Hotel

I stayed at one of the most affordable hotels in NYC, and while it's not for everyone, I was prepared and had a decent experience. The shared bathrooms were a bit wet, but manageable, and with some extra comfort items like my own pillow and sheets, it felt like urban camping. Sure, some guests were loud at night, but for $80 a night when most places were $350+, it was worth the savings! Staff were very friendly.

Although the location is great this is essentially a homeless shelter. There was literally a guy living in the lobby! The bathrooms were the most disturbing and disgusting thing I have ever seen. With a giant hole in the ceiling and in such a state that I don’t actually think they have seen a cloth and disinfectant since 1952! I’ve literally stayed in jungle lodges with better and cleaner facilities than this hotel. It might be cheap for. NYC if $90 is cheap !!! But you’d be better off spending more and getting a cleaner experience

It was what I expected for $75 a night in Manhattan. Bring your own sheet, pillow, and thin blanket if you can…. And pack your headphones. . Its a $75 a night hotel in a fun side of Manhattan. You are lucky to have had a bathroom and closet for this price. ✌️

The Bowery Grand Hotel shouldn’t even be labeled as a “hotel.” I understand the old cliché saying, “you get what you pay for,” but this cheap place takes its one-star rating to a whole new level in terms of carelessness.||||From the moment you walk in, a strong unpleasant smell reeks the stairwell and basically sets the tone for the entire experience. Second, it’s nothing but a narrow set of stairs at the entrance – definitely nowhere near ADA-compliant – and weird etiquette signs such as “no pets,” “no bikes” and “no visitors” are plastered on several windows.||||The lobby is cluttered with trash and (at least during my visit) either drug addicts or homeless people were sleeping in the lobby, making the visit somewhat uncomfortable. At least the receptionist was polite and respectful w

This was NOT a hotel room. This was a broom closet with a bed. I checked out a 3 am and couldn't wait to get out. How WOTIF/Expedia can charge $150 for this hole in the wall and sleep at night is beyond me. And they had the gall to write me that I grabbed a bargain ! It's a good thing I was 5'11" . If I were any taller I woulkd have had to sleep with my knees to my chest. The room was only as wide as the mattress.
