This hotel is a good value if you're just looking for a place to crash. It is not fancy by any stretch of the imagination, but decent. It is available only to military folks and the living conditions are dorm-like. You are sharing a room with strangers (unless you are lucky to have enough people in your party to get... More

Totally cool place to stay! The old building is nearly 100 years old and is open to members of military, or public service (ie firemen, policemen), reserves, retired, etc. A real gem - tons of character & charm with all the old military pix on the walls, architecture, etc. We were two couples - Gunny & Me, my daughter &...

This hotel is for military and their families, as well as police and firefighters. The rooms are substantially cheaper then other hotels in NYC. The rate per person and it is based on rank and age. This hotel does not have an elevator and the family rooms are on the fourth floor. Our family room had six twin beds in... More

Just returned from a 4 day stay at the club. What a cool place! Very historic, comfortable, and friendly place to stay! I was there with my husband and 14 year old daughter. My husband and I are both retired military so felt very comfortable in this atmosphere. The club is very comparable with a nice BOQ. If you get... More

I have stayed here four times while visiting New York City. If you are simply looking for a place to sleep and qualify to stay, this is a great choice. The location is fantastic - Mid-town, Murray Hill, close to Grand Central and bus lines. I usually travel by myself here and have always considered this area relatively safe. The... More

We took a 5 day trip to NYC and were fortunate to get two beds.....this is a bare bones place, but you can't beat the price and location. Yes, there are a lot of stairs and they creak with age. The bathrooms and showers are down the hall, but they are clean. The people staying at this hotel are typically... More

I didn't stay there because I canceled my reservation two weeks prior to the date, I had reserved. However, I was charged for one night $125 as no show. Unfortunately, I didn't have a cancellation number with me, so I was refused to get a refund. With my phone record, I told the lady on the line that I made... More

The price is outstanding for a hotel in Manhattan and as long as you only need a bed, it is perfect. The staff is friendly and helpful, they offer a continental breakfast, and it is in the perfect location for utilizing public transportation.

We stayed here for 4 days, i was a little afraid of coming to NYC for the first time and also staying at this hotel, however, we are so pleased to be in the heart of Manhattan! The hotel was what you paid for, BUT! But, it's the historical feeling of it inside and out, makes you feel like a... More

Summer 2011 stayed here for about 2 weeks - great location. (Helpful hint - Stair-wise - the 1st floor is actually the 2nd floor in exterior photo (no elevator, but a stair-lift for handicapped). Summary: Very helpful, professional staff working with a somewhat old reservation system. Most rooms hold 2-3 cots. You rent the cot & locker - not the... More
