"The rooms are tiny with just enough room for 1 person to walk around the bed. You’ll need to keep your belongings very tidy as there’s not too much room to store them. However, this small hotel is making the most of their limited space! Nice patio to enjoy some people watching while you drink your coffee on the 2nd floor. Staff is friendly and the rooms are clean!

"Wonderful stay! My room was ready at 3:00pm. Check in with Dinnella at the front desk was flawless considering i had 12 bags. Mariah and Zoe were super helpful. Note: there’s free parking on the right hand side of Waverly street just feet from the front door and it’s super convenient. I had two rooms booked for the weekend. Super pleased with both rooms. My room overlooked the park and was fabulous. Bed was very comfortable. Especially the pillows. There was a bathrobe and slippers...

"Located right between the West Village and Chelsea, it is an amazing area to call home. The staff at The Jane Hotel were all very friendly and helpful. We were able to keep our luggage at the front desk after check out, to allow us an easier last day in the city. The room, while very small, was pleasant and clean. It utilized an energy saving stick key fob for entry and electricity, and the bathroom was clean. The shower wasn’t quite hot enough, and the hallway to reach the bathroom was...

"Everything you need for a short stay in the heart of NYC! Just steps from all major trains and right across from Eataly (amazing coffee, pastries, and other Italian goodies.) The rooms are small (hey, it’s Manhattan!), but cozy and efficient. Heads-up: showers are shared, so pack some flip-flops. Bonus: Fresh coffee and HOT tea all day long. Thank you for the excellent experience! "

"The staff were all so friendly and helpful! Our room was really nice and comfortable. The Saturday night we were there was pretty loud outside, but otherwise it was quiet. It is a great location for art goers and there are lots of food options around. It was disappointing that their bar is closed - there is so much unused space there and I would have enjoyed meeting up with friends there rather than finding another location! "
