Central Hotel

“I am currently in the central hotel me and my fiancé and pur 2 kids , the employees here are awesome , there are deluxe rooms which usually has a futon amd a queen size bed and then there is like hostel style bunk beds woth shareable bathrooms in hall way. I would recommend this hotel to anybody the location is awesome and not on a highway lots of stores to shop at if needed ,lots of different food places NYC being just a hop and a skip away,local buses go towards NYC daily amd regularly. I had a medical emergency here (stroke)and if it wasn't for the staff I would be dead! Thank you guys !!!”

“This place is affordable and has a great vibe. The neighborhood is fantastic. However, you’ll need to take the bus to get to Manhattan. The bathrooms are moderately clean, and there can be some noise, but for the price, it’s very nice. Dunkin’s is just a minute’s walk away.”

“You get what you paid for, and it's quite nice. No elevator so beware if you're carrying a ton of stuff and you have a room on the upper floors, but we weren't, so it was fine. Pros: Kind front desk, the room was very clean, it wasn't loud, and it was close to a bus stop to go to NYC. There's also a ton of food options nearby that were all pretty cheap. Overall a very pleasant stay despite the following nitpick. Cons: They stuff these perfume things into the AC that makes the room smell cloyingly of perfume. I was worried it was to mask something gross in the room, but a search through the couches, restroom, and mattress all seemed fine, and they all smelled fine too, so I'm not sure why there's a super heavy scent in the AC. Leaving the AC off lets the scent die down after a bit, although I think I went a bit nose blind to the perfume as well.”

“We stayed a week in this budget hotel, what feels more like a hostel, in September 2025 for 80$/night (plus tax) in a very tiny room with a bunk bed, fridge, microwave and A/C (which is noisy). Every morning they offer coffee for free and over all it's helpful staff. Cleaning is also every morning, though sometimes toilet paper was empty and the sinks weren't so clean and it lacked soap for hands. Furniture is oldish and just functional. The building lays in an Latin American neighborhood, there is heaps of shops and eating options available, super safe (even at night, we arrived 3 am morning). Bus Stop to Manhattan/42 Street is just 100 meters (4,10 each ride) and takes up to 20 min with traffic. Over all, we can recommend this place, when you are on budget.”

“If you want to stay outside of Manhattan, it is a very good option. The treatment with the Hotel, from the beginning, was very good, they kept in constant friendly communication, even letting us know that the room was ready. We stayed in a very clean private room, with bathroom, microwave, refrigerator, AC, TV, hair dryer. We had doubts before visiting the place, especially because on other occasions we have stayed in Manhattan, but the truth is, we were very satisfied with the location, since it was very easy to get there and back, even in the early morning. They give you all the information if you have any questions, so that in 15 minutes, depending on traffic, you can go and come from the Hotel to the whereabouts of The Port Authority of New York in Manhattan, super easy. Oh and by the way, their candy vending machine saved us when we were craving snacks, very late. Thanks for everything!”

“An excellent hotel that left us with the most pleasant impressions! The main advantage is that it is only 20 minutes from Manhattan, which is very convenient for those who want to enjoy New York without long trips. I would especially like to note the work of the administration. When it became necessary to extend our stay, and almost all the rooms were occupied, they met us halfway and found the best option. The rooms are cozy, equipped with everything you need: the refrigerator and microwave became a real salvation. The reception staff is always polite and responsive, special thanks to Peter for his help and care!”

“It merits its price. Staff is very friendly and helpful. The hotel is very simple but clean and nothing bad if you do not put high expectations. Its main advantage is that it is very accessible to NY city and particularly to Penn station by bus(-es). I am not sure about the neighborhood: the criminal rate is lower than median in the US, but I preferred to return before the late evening.”
