Check in/out was easy, be weary there is no elevator (we were on the 5th floor). Walls are pretty thin, but hotel room was clean and comfortable. Water pressure was terrible, showering was difficult.

Great for NYC on a budget
A great find for a budget trip to Manhattan, the Chelsea had some nice features, a few not unexpected shortcomings and some small annoyances that seem easy to fix. The good stuff: excellent location, wonderful staff, clean and modern look to the room, comfy mattress. Not so good but not unexpected for the price: the walls are thin and the pipes are old, which made for a noisy night. We played some green noise on Spotify after the first night and slept well. Small annoyances that could easily be fixed: no bedside table on one side, broken towel rack and clothes hooks in the bathroom and, last-and-worst, the fitted sheet was too small and kept coming off the mattress. The Chelsea is a short walk to Washington Park and Greenwich Village and much more affordable than anything you’d find in those areas.

Not going to stay here again.
There was a burning hot pipe right behind the head of our bed. We had no control over how hot that was. And it was uncomfortable. The bed was otherwise comfortable. The television did not work. The WiFi was very spotty. There were dirty tissues under the bed and detritus in the hard to reach corners around the bed. The fridge in the room either leaked water as it defrosted or froze our leftovers when I turned it up slightly. The bathroom was pretty nice. Staff was pleasant.

Overall good
Overall a good stay. The one annoying thing (and it was very annoying) was dealing with a guest who shared a bathroom with me. They literally turned it into their own personal bathroom (hanging towels in common spaces, leaving dirty towels and hair everywhere) and I had to constantly step around their dirty towels on the floor. For that, I wish this hotel at least cleaned the bathrooms each day. Not really a complaint but a reminder for guests: for towels, soap, toilet paper, even a plunger for the toilet, it's all in the first floor closet underneath the stairs.

Experience the charming Chelsea Inn
The staff was friendly and attentive. I liked that I only had to share a bathroom with another person, not the entire floor. The rooms had wooden floors and good woodwork. I could relax knowing I wasn't going to see bugs. Overall it was an enjoyable experience.

Good location but worst bed ever
Hotel well located in Chelsea neighborhoods and easy to access with self-checking system (the hotel sent us the passcodes to enter hotel and room before our arrival). However, the room wasn’t very cleaned, and next to the lobby and laundry which was very noisy. Furthermore, the bed was very uncomfortable and bowl-shaped. My friend and I had to do our best not to crush each other during the night. I've attached a photo of the underside of the bed to show you the state of the box spring, which explains the hollow in the bed. Our other friend slept on the sofa bed which was hard and very uncomfortable too. I would not recommend this hotel if you are looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay…
