I recently stayed at the Econo Lodge Times Square and found it to be a basic hotel that meets essential needs. The beds were fairly comfortable, and the rooms were clean, albeit a bit worn down. The location was fantastic, right in the heart of the city, making it easy to explore. However, the lack of coffee or tea facilities in the room and some noise from the nearby fire station were drawbacks. Overall, for a budget option in such a prime location, I would consider staying again.

My stay at Econo Lodge Times Square was marked by a fantastic location just off Times Square, making it easy to explore the area. However, the experience was marred by several significant issues. noise from the street was a constant distraction, and the room was cramped and lacked basic maintenance. Overall, I felt it had potential but definitely required improvements.

The room was extremely small and cramped. I felt like I barely had enough space to move around. There was no thermostat, just central heating that was inadequate during winter. A bit more attention to room conditions is needed.
