Bowery Grand Hotel

The location is really good. It is very close to two subway stations and still within walking distance to some attractions in Manhattan. The room, corridors and bathrooms were fairly clean. There were enough bathrooms. WiFi worked well.

When I entered for the first time in the room in the late evening after check-in, I found dirty sheets, torn blanket and wet towel. There were no toiletries. It appeared like that someone else had just left the room. The rooms have literally no ceiling (there is only a net), so you do not have privacy as regards sound. Sounds and lights from other rooms might also be disturbing.

Nothing

Rooms didn’t have a ceiling Very poor standard of maintenance

The best thing I liked about the hotel was the price. Too bad that the old expression, you get what you paid for, proved to be true. So if it's cheap, expect problems. It may not be true that its non smoking. 35 sq feet, makes it easy to hear neighbor.

Having a guest use bigoted profanity at me at midnight for he and his "guest" to be quite, the staff treated me like I was the problem. Since door locks can be opened with a credit card, I felt that person could attack me. That made for a restless night.
