Pod 39 is a well-located hotel in Manhattan, just a five-minute walk from Grand Central Station, making it easy for guests to explore New York City. It offers excellent value for travelers seeking a clean and functional place to stay. The rooms are small, but well-organized, perfect for solo travelers or business trips. Some rooms feature glass bathroom walls, which may limit privacy, and there are no fridges provided. The hotel boasts a rooftop bar on the 17th floor, which provides a nice atmosphere and a chill vibe for guests looking to unwind. Although the views are decent, they may not be as impressive as taller buildings in the area. The bar can be family-friendly, which some guests find unusual for a rooftop setting. Pod 39 also offers a downstairs lounge where guests can enjoy food and drinks while watching sports. Complimentary coffee is available in the mornings, alongside grab-and-go items for purchase. The hotel’s location allows easy access to nearby attractions like Central Park and various dining options. Overall, Pod 39 is a comfortable choice for those wanting a convenient base in the heart of Manhattan.
Unreal value if you're looking for a place to sleep in manhattan. The rooms are clean and new, although small. The glass bathroom walls don't offer much privacy so you better be close with your roommate. No fridge either.

Good value hotel, very well located, clean. The only slight downsides is that the hotel and rooms do have a bit of a studenty vibe. Really nice rooftop bar.

I went to the Roof to have a drink and see the view. A good place to stop if you want to recharge your batteries in Manhattan.
