I enjoyed my stay at the Pod 39 the staff were very kind and the room was just what I needed for my one night trip to new york city. I will note that the remote for the TV was very gross and almost caked in dirt and I was worried the rest of the room may be as gross but it seemed fine. I definitely recommend the stay for the price, I will most certainly be staying here again but I will not touch that TV remote!

The rate I got on Expedia was quite good for a NYC hotel. I reserved a room with a pod with a bathroom and double bed. I arrived early and they checked my bags for free, and eventually allowed me to check in a few hours early once a room was available. They upgraded me to a queen bed free of charge. Overall very good experience. My only gripe would be that the roof was closed seasonally so I didn't to get to see the view.
