After searching for hours online, I am very satisfied to have found this hotel. Travelling with our two teenage children, having two queen size beds was a deal breaker. The desk staff was exceptionally friendly and I felt like the hotel was run by a warm family. Parking is just two blocks away (be sure to get your ticket stamped at the hotel). As I write this, I'm sitting in the room which is small yet appears to have been remodeled recently. I'm looking at tasteful artwork on the walls, a nice flat screen tv, crown molding along the ceiling and attractive lighting fixtures. The bathroom has great water pressure and a nice shower and showerhead. I wish the bathroom had an air vent and the door did not have partially frosted glass for greater privacy. The breakfast buffet was your basic continental variety. When we first arrived there was not much food, but after about 10 minutes the staff came to replenish. I wish we had cold water at the buffet to complement the juices, milk and coffee. We wanted to check in early and check out late, but because we were unable to do so, we stored our belongings in the locked luggage area with the very helpful assistance of one of the staff members. This was a great value and I will stay here again!

I used to stay at this Ramada back in the late 90's and early 2000s because it was cheap, but it was nothing special. Well, much to my surprise, I stayed there on a budget trip to NY a couple weeks ago, and the place is still inexpensive, but COMPLETELY remodeled. The bed was amazing, the wireless free, the staff helpful and the entire experience was amazing. Close to the train, wine bar, great restaurants... I will stay her again, often, even when I can afford something more expensive.

I am not a fan of this particular chain of hotels having experienced some dumps around the country associated with this brand. The Ramada Eastside is the exception. First of all, the staff is awesome! A special thank you to Julie at the Front Desk, the woman put up with a lot yet managed to stay cheerful through her shift. The housekeeping gentlemen was always quick to deliver toiletries, towels and what nots when needed and I swear I think he lives there :) I was there for a week so I got to witness their professionalism for quite some time. Second, the room is compact but nicely appointed...and the bed put me into a deep, dreamy slumber every night. Only thing I did not like was that the chair kept on hitting the bed due to the small space between it and the desk (note to hotel: you may want to re-arrange that work space area a bit). Other than this little annoyance, it was a great experience and the price was right.

My mom and I recently stayed at the Ramada Eastside for Thanksgiving to enjoy the Macy's parade. The hotel is in a good location and we could walk to everything. Continental breakfast is included in room price, which is nice. Our room was compact but very clean. We had a coffee maker (which is rare in NYC), flat screen tv, comfortable queen bed, and for the price and location, we would definitely stay here again. If you want a cozy, nice, quiet, clean, safe, convenient, and reasonably priced hotel in Manhattan, the Ramada Eastside is the best value!

my husband and i stayed there for a 2 night stay. Our son is in the hospital and it is a very short walk to the hospital. The hotel was extremely clean and the room, though small, fit our needs. Staff is very pleasant and helpful. Continental breakfast was what you would expect. We are booked to return this weekend and the following and will continue to use this hotel for as long as we need to keep returning to NY.
