We have stayed at this hotel previously and booked a superior ( more costly) room for this stay, although it was a top floor room, it was disappointingly small, with the beverage refrigerator sitting in the middle of the room There’s no longer a full service restaurant, where we had enjoyed nice service on previous stays. It’s now a “cold “ self service buffet of bagels and yogurt in a small, crowded space. The room was clean and well stocked with towels, but no in room coffee or water, etc A friend mentioned the hotel is under new ownership- maybe that’s the explanation. A good location near the park but we may look for another “favorite spot”

I travel to NYC a few times per year to see jazz shows at the Bluenote & the Village Vanguard. I primarily stay at the Washington Square Hotel due to it's great location. It is within a few blocks of the clubs. The neighborhood is fantastic with plenty of terrific restaurants, etc., nearby. As for the hotel, the price is fair & the staff very nice. It is a solid mid-tier hotel. It is by no means luxury, nor is it a dump. It is a clean, well located, reliable, decent place to stay. Pros: Great location, friendly staff, excellent water pressure, breakfast included (haven't tried it), good wi-fi. Cons: Very small rooms, very firm beds, small flat-screen TV wedged up in the corner of the ceiling (plenty of channels though) no mini-fridge, a little noisy, It's hard to beat if you need to be in the area and don't want to spend a fortune. All in all an excellent situation for basic accommodations. Note: When I was there last, I mentioned the rock hard mattress & no mini-fridge & they said next time to ask for a softer bed and a room with a mini-fridge (they obviously must exist) btw, Must go: Waverly Diner & Joe's Pizza a couple of blocks away. .

The staff at this Hotel were wonderful. Very pleasant and really helpful. The room was really nice, and very clean for the most part. There were some staines on the tub and when I opened the bathroom window (theres no ventilation) I noticed the sill could use someThe price was great for right now in New York at this location especially.

The room was very clean and comfortable. What wasn't great was the room was at the first floor level, and it was very noisy - garbage trucks; people yelling. It wasn't very restful. The staff were more than accommodating. I did not receive my folio after my stay.
