Fodor's Expert Review Sixty LES
190 Allen St., New York, New York, 10002, USA
This hotel is a great embodiment of the vibe of the neighborhood inhabitants: hip, but friendly when you're acquainted. Rooms are stylishly stark, black-and-white affairs, with low platform beds whose headboards are light boxes displaying works by the photographer Lee Friedlander. The desk space can be cramped, and although the windows are big, come nighttime, rooms can feel seriously dark. Suites, on the building's corners, have balconies with sweeping views of both downtown and Midtown—some of the best in the city. The neighborhood is a nexus for nightlife, and the hotel's bar is a great place to start.
PROS
- in the heart of LES nightlife
- great views from suites
- cool bar scene
CONS
- occasionally snobby staff
- rooms are stylish but dark
- some guests complain about noise
