OYO pleasantly surpassed my expectations. It had quite a few negative reviews which now tells me that those people have never been to NYC and stayed in Times Square before. This hot is for people on a budget it's not the Plaza and it's perfect just how it is! Is there a view, no, it's Times square. Can you here sirens sometimes? yes, it's Times Square. This hotel is clean, has a/c + heat, hot water, good TVs with all of the channels, has very friendly staff that do their jobs happily! You'll need to understand how to use your key card for the elevator and late night entry (for safety) You will not be locked out like someone said in one review LOL. After long days in the city coming back to a convenient location for a hot shower and bed was perfect. My only thing to note is the check in process. If you try to check in at 3 you will be in an hour line. That part was a bit ridiculous. But 99% awesome.
