Tried the Pod for a 2night stay for Broadway shows. 42nd and 9th feel very unsafe walking back from theatre after the show. Overall would pay more to be right in theatre area. Traveled with my teenage daughter and felt very unsafe after dark. We stayed in the bunk bed room for fun. Room very nice, super small but that was fine. Beds hard as a rock haha. Wouldn’t do that again. Overall Pod property is nice, just the area wasn’t ideal. Wonderful staff.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
I rarely write reviews, but my experience at this hotel left me with no choice. Cleanliness is a basic expectation from any hotel, and unfortunately, this property fell far short. Upon entering my room, I found a long hair on the bed, followed by more hairs on a towel, in the shower drain, and on the bathroom floor. It was evident that the shower hadn’t been cleaned properly after multiple guests. Given the late hour, I cleaned up the mess myself and decided to bring it up with the manager during checkout. However, instead of an apology or any acknowledgment of the issue, he repeatedly stated that I should have informed them sooner so they could swap the sheets and towels. His demeanor was dismissive and lacked empathy, as if their failure to maintain cleanliness was somehow my fault for not reporting it immediately. I pay to stay in a clean and hygienic room, and it is the responsibility of the hotel staff to ensure this standard is met. The way the manager handled my concern only worsened an already disappointing experience. I felt unheard, disrespected, and completely let down. I will not be staying here again and cannot recommend this hotel to anyone who values cleanliness or respectful customer service.

I’ve gone here twice now and each time has been excellent. I’m a simple man, usually staying for a night or two, and really don’t need much more than a bed and shower, and they got it! Plus, everyone is super friendly and helpful. If you’re looking for a simple space, near everything and for a good price, Pod it up!

Tiny rooms but spotless clean. Would stay again

Small room but extremely clean. Comfortable beds, spacious shower with plenty of hot water, great for heating up after been out in the cold all day. Never heard any sound from outside the room. Had coffee and breakfast in hotel one morning which was very nice. So central to the port authority so access to all the subways and a 5 minute walk to Times Square. I would recommend and would stay again.

I stayed in December 2024 with a last-minute reservation. The staff was friendly, and the room was clean. I got to the hotel a bit early, but front lady let me check in early. The price was super high for such a small room, but that’s on me. I probably would have gotten a better rate if I booked in advance.

Amazing

I have stayed here at the Pod Hotels Time Square and every time it is perfect. It is comfy and affordable and it’s my budget especially considering we were going to a city where we were not spending extensive time in our hotel room. Even thought that is the case for many others their rooms are still always clean and perfect and staff welcoming, helpful, and inviting. I will always recommend.
