Great stay for someone who has a packed itinerary during their stay. Super quiet within the building. I felt safe. Shared (full) bathrooms were very clean, but narrow. I wish the showers had a shelf for my toiletries. I would stay again!

Make sure you have a clear understanding of the building otherwise if you are expecting a more hotel experience you will be left frustrated. I enjoyed The Flat only cause I went in with the understanding it was closer to hostel than hotel which is what I knew on booking. It’s in a great location. The shared bathrooms were regularly cleaned and you felt safe in the building.

My 20yo daughter stayed here for 4 nights on her own. Loved being so close to subway and walking distance to NY things. Thought her little room was the BEST. Loved it! Had a sink and mirror so she could get ready for her dance events. Did not have any issue with the shared bathroom. Amazing price for Manhattan. If she goes again, she will stay here again for sure.

Great staff and location. Room and bathrooms were clean. Window was very drafty and needs more insulation and double panes . I had to sleep with my head at the foot of the bed and use extra pillows to block the draft from window.
