For the price this was a great accommodation, however one of the three nights I stayed was a Saturday and the club downstairs played extremely loud music until exactly 4am. The other two nights were quiet. Enjoyed the stay and found everything to expectations.

I discovered the Nolita Express in the Spring of 2025. It’s an absolute treasure in the heart of Chinatown & the Bowery! Very comfortable! Great little Kitchen / Dining area. Great parlor room! I have stayed here 4 times this year and recommended it to a friend who stayed at the hotel and loved it as much as I do!!! Check it out! Kraige Block

I stayed on the women only floor. The cabin did feel cozy, the common room area is spacious, comfortable and very pretty. Also, the location is awesome from a dining, attraction and transport viewpoint. I would definitely recommend for solo travellers. The only downside that I wasn’t prepared for is that there isn’t a duvet in the room. Aside from that, my stay was great.
