The hotel is praised for its central location and cleanliness, with friendly and helpful staff. However, some guests found the rooms to be small and the elevator to be very tight. There were also some issues with temperature control in the rooms.

    Room was small, but worked perfectly fine for a quick stay. Clean room and lobby. Decent sized bathroom and shower. The staff was very nice, efficient and accommodating. They upgraded us to a larger room, which ended up being convenient to have the extra bed. It’s located nearby Times Square and walkable to many nearby restaurants, bars, and subways. Would recommend for price, location, and a quick stay as a solo traveler or a couple.

    For the location and the size of the room, we have 5 people and could really sleep more than that), it was great. Worth the value. Everything works. No frill. Beds aren't that comfortable, it's a metal frame so it makes noise when you move and the mattresses are kind of thin so.. but we were there for only 2 nights and really was just a place to sleep and use the shower. It works wonderfully for us. We would stay again.

    The Downsides * It was loud. At least I got to hear my neighbors "having fun." Several times. * The shower flow went directly into the hot water control on the shower. So every time you try to get wet, you are threatened with a potential assault. * It was dark - I swear the sun came out when I was in NYC - I just could not tell from this room. * The AC was fairly bipolar The Upsides * The staff was friendly * It's in a great location for all midtown activities.

    A small but clean room. The location is great with easy access. Exactly what we were looking for. It took a long time for the shower to get hot, but it eventually did. For the $300 we paid, I’d say the value was solid. I’d likely spend a little more to stay someplace nicer if I were staying multiple days in a row, but we just used the room for sleeping and cleaning up one night. All in all, I wouldn’t mind staying here again.

    The hotel is pretty much central to everyting including restaurants, bars, Penn Station, Broadway shows, etc.. The subway will get you pretty much everywhere else. The check-in process was fast and easy. The room was large enough to fit 5 people. The shower water was hot and had excellent pressure. They gave us 2 towels per person which was a huge bonus. The beds were really comforatble and we slept well. The whole experience was excellent. I have no feedback.

    Room was nicely updated. Beds were small and uncomfortable though.

    Room, although very small, was fine for a stay two people who went to shows, ate, and then needed a place to sleep. Next day - same thing. The Television was very underwhelming. One channel and the remote only worked if you stood by the tv ... otherwise, you had to like one channel tv.

    So hot even with the air on, hair stuck to the bathroom walls and floor, so loud all night - but worst was the staffs response to an issue I raised. The bathroom window wouldn’t lock and I was on the first floor with a landing outside the window. I asked if I could switch rooms because of this and the male staff member made me follow him in the room for him to look at it. I was alone and am female and didn’t feel safe going in with him but he continued to ask me to come in and look at it with him, even though he couldn’t lock it either. He asked why it mattered. Then after putting me in a new room he again asked me to come in with him to try that one out. Then after getting him out and into the new room, an hour later a woman came banging on the door saying she needed me to open the door so she could test the window. Awful experience and awful night. The woman at the desk when I checked in and out was the only good part of the experience as she was helpful and quick. Expedia helped me cancel my second night!

    We arrived to the hotel, hot and tired. We got to our room and couldnt find how to turn on ac. My husband called and right away David came upstairs to check in our room. We did not have an AC. He made arrangements got a similar room with an AC. We needed it since the weather was warmer than expected. Someone was always at the desk to help. The hotel was 4 blocks away from subway and walking distance of iconic landmarks such as Times Square and Rockefeller Center. There were tons of food areas to check out. If your looking for a fancy hotel, this is not it. If your looking for a quiet room to come back to, decompress, wash up and sleep until your next nyc adventure, this is it.

    Room was a lot smaller than it looked online. Beds were not comfortable. Tiny thin mattress and tiny thin towels. No ice or water fill stations. Issues with the door locking and came back to our door ajar. It was an affordable room and served its purpose but if you’re used to the amenities of a regular hotel of normal standards this is not the place for you. I will say it was a great location to get to time square and surrounding areas and the staff was very nice. Just felt like the space was very cramped and low quality.

It’s not like we had any questions or kept our checking in longer, other than letting him know the name at check in. Gave it an extra star only because of the guy at check out the next day. He was more friendly and actually smiled. We can tell he was happy to be at work.

    It's a good place to stay if you plan on being out and about in the city - very small, not conducive to hanging out in your room. It met all of my basic needs and served its purpose.

    Honest review, I was skeptical about staying at this hotel from the ither reviews Ive read but for the price and the area it did the job. We arrived on the Amtrak at Penn station NYC, it was literally an 8 min walk straight up the block from the train station. Its a little hole in the wall that can be easily missed but you can find it. From Doxie hotel it was about 11 min walk, From Doxie to Rockerfeller center was like 18 min walk... You are right in the heart of times square. As far as the hotel quality, once you walk in its like a small apartment, clean for the kost part. The staff are very nice and polite no rude attitides from any of the workers we came accross. Walking into the room we had a a standard queen, it had your basics, bed, closet space, desk, mirror, fridge, lock safe, coffee area, bathroom with shower, blow dryer n washing needs. our room had a space for a bunk bed (which we didnt need) but it did give us more space to place our things. we literally were only our room to sleep n shower nothing more nothing less. Now heres the bad part and I knew this from previous reviews i read... But we did encounter a creepy crawler (roaches) we killed one adult roach and seen about 8 baby roaches, they were mainky in the bathroom and came out from the door frame while the shower was running... I checked for hed bugs and did not see any signs of those things thank God because i woulda been outta there. If you choose to stay here just be sure to shake our your luggage.

    FYI: This is a very small, unassuming hotel that was hidden behind side walk scaffolding. It has more of a hostel feel than a hotel feel. Nonetheless, front desk staff was very nice and efficient in checking us in. The hotel was also very quiet during our stay. The room, on the other hand, was quite dingy and beat up. The window unit a/c also could've used a major cleaning. My biggest complaint, the twin beds were so uncomfortable and noisy --- mattresses definitely need to be updated. Also, I appreciate the in-shower soap, shampoo, and conditioner dispensers, but maybe actually buy brand name and not blank, reusable dispeners? I know that sound nitpicky, but there were two different body washes mixed up in the dispenser. Please understand, this is a budget hotel so you might find people checking in from all walks of life. Sadly, there was one person checking in who must've had an "accident" because the entire front desk area smelled like a bathroom during their check-in.

    There was a smell in the hallway. It was dinky. Very narrow. The room was sort of clean. No amenities. They did provide us with a charger. The price was too high for the value.

    This hotel is very close to MSG, so it is at least conveniently located. It was fine in a pinch. The room was much smaller than I expected. The floors could stand to be cleaner. The bed and pillows were surprisingly great.

    The room was very clean - staff got us checked in quickly and we're friendly. The life is tiny and barely fit two of us in with a suitcase and because we were up on the 4th floor it was absolutely roasting hot in our room but thankfully there was an AC unit. The bed was comfy and the toiletries provided were great. There was not storage space however so it was a big of an organised chaos in there and there was no window which was a massive shame for natural light and view. However overall for a 4 night stay the location and price of the hotel was great, you just get what you pay for.

    Doxie was a quick, one-night stopover spot for us - flying from Portland, OR to Barcelona. Wanted to show my son a tiny slice of NYC, and this hotel was a great spot to land for a 36hr run about the city. Simple entry down a skinny hall to a small check-in desk and a cramped elevator ride up might give you the idea that you'll be disappointed. But the room was a very nice size, updated and modern, and clean & nicely equipped. No window views, or fancy amenities - but if you want a comfortable, clean place to lay your head while you spend most of your time out exploring, this is an excellent choice! Perfect midtown location, and very nice staff.

    We stayed for 3 nights and I dont care what other people says I love this place its perfect location. My first concern was security. But it turns out its pretty safe. and to me Its pretty clean. Staff are very friendly and very helpful also the best part you can leave luggage ahead of your reservation with no extra fee. The $100 deposit was automatically refunded soon as we checked out. The restaurant just next door is also pretty convenient and tasty love that pork chop noodles. Thank you Doxie! I'll be back next year for the NY Autoshow. btw. If going to statue of liberty buy the ticket online battery park is surrounded by scammers I was physically prevented from entering.

    stay was ok, even though from outside does not look as a hotel, rooms were nice although very small but were nice, my only bid disappointment was internet speed was very slow, I could not work, so this is not a good option if you go to NYC on a business trip, also when I received my room (after 4 pm) I just got in to drop my luggage and leave but there was a terrible smell, I was surprised since room looked very clean and if it was just made up, but when I came back at night I noticed someone had use the toilet before I got in the room, i found a used hand towel left on the sink and I saw the tolet paper was used that explained the terrible smell, I am sure that if I got into the room may be 10 mins earlier I found someone in the bathroom

    Average old NYC building converted into a hotel. Location is great. We had to put the minifridge infront of one of the vents because people in the other room could see into ours. We could hear them clearly as well. Windows do not lock properly and lead to a roof thus anyone could break into the room. Don’t think it is worth what we paid for the night. They exchange a “gift” for 5-star reviews which is maybe why we picked it.

    Doxie was great! Felt super clean which is most of what I’m looking for. Bathroom was lovely as well. We had two twin beds, one was fine but mine was broken. Tried to move it thinking maybe the floor was uneven but definitely seemed like more of a mattress/ bed issue. Otherwise great and easy!

    It's definitely a small hotel. You can't quite tell from photos what the size of the rooms are like. No windows that provide a view - you're very much boxed in. There was a small window in the room that had textured glass you couldn't see through. A LOT of road/outside noise throughout the night. It was hard for us to get enough hot water to take showers. Sometimes there was hot water, and sometimes there wasn't. Room was clean, and staff were all very nice and friendly!

    Big enough for our family of 5 (Two Queens and a bunk bed). No closets for our luggage and when we ate in the room, we sat on our beds. The elevator was tiny, but usable (Squished 5 of us in there once, but from then on, we mostly just used the stairs). Close to everything, which was great! Front end staff was hit or miss on their congeniality.

    The reason I've given 4* rather than 5* is related to safety. The reception staff should ask for some sort of proof of residence (show the keycard, say which room number, etc) as the elevator/stairs don't require a card and thus anyone can walk in and up to the room doors which made me nervous.

    My stay at the Doxie hotel was only meant to be functional. I didn't really mind that the room was in relatively shabby condition, with very tired and worn paint, chipped furniture, no window and a generally depressing atmosphere. I was there to sleep and to be in the area for work early the next morning. What I DID mind was the fact that, on top of all of this, the water in the shower only ever got luke warm. After 15 minutes of running the water on the hottest possible setting, it's insult to injury to have to take a luke warm shower after a very disappointing stay in general. Unacceptable. Avoid.

    On our second night of our stay, when my daughter was getting ready to go on the top bunk the top portion of the bunk bed collapsed. The bunk beds did not seem to be stable at all. My family was relocated to another room in the middle of the night. I feel like we should have been offered some sort of compensation or a discount on our stay. Unfortunately we never got a word from the hotel manager.

    The hotel is not as nice as it seems from the pictures. The room itself is NY small, but adequate. The bathroom doubles the size of the space. While the bathroom is considerably nicer than the bedroom the water temperature fluctuates constantly and at best gave me 5 minute of hot shower. The bed is not particularly comfortable and almost as thin as the walls. Definitely the noisiest hotel I’ve ever stayed in. I could hear the person next door tapping her razor on the sink as if she was next to me in my bed, kind of alarming. At least it was clean…

    I wouldn’t stay here again. On a solo trip, I got “upgraded” from a queen to a room with 3 twin beds because they were overbooked. The towels weren’t fully clean, the room was very noisy, and the temperature control didn’t work. It technically is a place to stay but you can do so much better for the price.
