Without doubt the best hotel in NYC. I stayed here once, a year ago, and would go back again in a…read moreheartbeat. The location cannot be beat - central to everything a person could want to do or see in Manhattan (perhaps this is best illustrated by the fact that it is RIGHT NEXT DOOR to Harney and Sons, the best tea shop in NYC, which is saying a lot). The service could not have been better. I arrived prior to my check-in time and they were so gracious; I was completely discombobulated due to being there for a memorial event, and was still pretty upset about my loss. They were so understanding, and even found a different, BETTER room for me to check in to that let me change and leave for my event. I wish I could give more stars. The hotel itself is so lovely. The courtyard is an oasis of calm, and with only a handful of rooms, the entire property is on a human scale that is otherwise nearly impossible to find in NYC. It is a super-refreshing contrast to large, corporate hotels that thousands of people sweep in and out of, with all of their messes, germs, etc; this place feels like you're staying in the stately home of a very solicitous friend. The breakfast cooked to order on the premises (next to the courtyard) was so nice, and started the day in such a civilized way. The rooms were very nice, too. Perhaps best of all -- and again, nearly unheard-of in NYC -- they were QUIET. Even in one with a window on the street, I was able to sleep like a baby. My only regret is that my trip was such a whirlwind that I wasn't better able to express to the staff how much they helped me in a difficult time. But I hope this conveys some of that here -- you could not ask for a better home away from home on your travels in New York.

La Sienna was the final stop of our San Francisco to New York road trip and was a fabulous end to…read moreour time in the States. The room was very reasonable in price, especially in comparison to other hostels and hotels in NYC. Our double room was a little on the small side but as we only really used it as a base it was all we needed. We had a shared bathroom and kitchen area, all clean and fully equipped and it was a short walk from two subway stations. My only reservation would be I didn't feel 100% safe walking back late at night and wouldn't advise anyone did so on their own as these streets are dark and quiet. The owners are fantastic people - friendly, helpful and complete animal lovers just like my boyfriend and I so a percentage of what you pay goes to a nearby animal charity. We also had a lot of luggage to leave behind that we had accrued on our trip: bags, clothes, books etc. and the lady who owned the hostel told us she'd take it all down to the homeless shelter and charity shops. Before we checked out the male owner showed us some of their bigger rooms which were more like little self-contained apartments - they were really lovely. I think we would pay slightly more to stay in one of these if we were to return, but I also know there is a dorm on the top floor for those who are budgeting. Thank you La Sienna - you completed our amazing USA roadtrip!

La Sienna is perfection! I and a friend stayed there in March 2012 when I interviewed at Columbia…read more It's inexpensive, clean, well-located, quiet, safe, and the customer service was great! It definitely did feel like a quiet apartment building with single rooms. It did not have a hostel feel at all (at least our room and floor) A quick walk to the 120th st metro stop and amsterdam ave the other direction. Really perfect if you're visiting Columbia :) The only problem I'd say is the 3 night minimum, but that's hardly a deal-breaker. It's still cheaper to stay here for 3 nights than most places for one night! Don't let the fact it's in Harlem dissuade you. Harlem is a great part of the city, and a police station is only a couple blocks away if you still need some assurance.

We had to walk THROUGH their home to get to our 'ground floor' room which was UNDER ground: we could see people's shoes walk by, through the BARS on the windows, windows that we were not allowed to open to air out the stifflingly hot, smelly with incense room. No air! Four keys to four locked doors to pass through to get inside and then out. It seemed like a fire hazard to my freaked out husband. We were prepaid of course, and lost all our money but we were never going to stay in this way-too-cozy, scary, awful place. OMG. Be careful and ask more questions: that's what we learned with this very bad experience. These people are trying to make a living, I get it, but it was way overpriced for what it is. No privacy, other people's sounds and smells: NOT a hotel!

Hotels in NYC can definitely be a hit or miss, and Dream Midtown is absolutely a hit. The energy of…read morethe hotel immediately stood out to me and set a positive tone for the stay. The hotel is located on 55th Street near Times Square and, most importantly for me, close to subway lines that make getting to the airports straightforward and stress free. I was greeted by a warm and efficient check-in agent and was in my room within minutes. The room was comfortable, had ample space for my large suitcase, and offered a great bed for a solid night of rest. One downside is that there is no fridge in the room, but the restaurant downstairs was happy to fill my cooler with ice to keep my medication cold. The gym is not inside the hotel but located a couple of blocks away, which actually worked well for me since hotel gyms can feel sterile. The gym partnered with Dream Midtown was stellar, well equipped, and very accommodating. Overall, I was very pleased with my stay, experienced no issues, and would gladly choose this hotel again for a future trip to New York.

They charged us not for incidentals, but before the room which was almost $2800. Because the people were supposed to pay did not Put this on the correct card. As customers they should not have charged us and they should've known better. It took me a good 2 1/2 to 3 hours to get a situated the next day. Another good thing, we were able to go up to our room and a key worked. In the keyword for the duration of our trip! I also appreciate that they didn't promise us something really great in grand and did not deliver, and I'm talking to you, Hilton and Marriott with the apps that don't work on your phone There was a room with the bed, which is also a good thing. It is the smallest room I've ever been in and if it needed anything else, it should be a fridge in microwave. It's frustrating to have food left over and not being able to heat it because there's nowhere to do so. But the room was so tiny it was a touch claustrophobic. The bathroom features a step up into a marble room with marble walla and a raised floor. Bit the safest with the very young or the elderly. Another issue wasn't theirs and that's the construction that woke us up at 8 am each morning and did ya stop. That's 5am PST, so we weren't happy at all. The people who worked there did their best. One of them gave me some passes for a complimentary breakfast and it was quite good. You can see my review. It was hard to visit others in our party. We were in the 11th floor, they were on the 2nd and 4th floors. We couldn't visit because our keys were for the wrong floor. The truth is that it could have been much worse. It could have been much better. I just wish more for the next poor soul to happen upon here. I don't know if this is a place I want to see again. It was nice, but a more basic room with a fridge or a microwave would hit the spot.

It's almost impressive how awful this place is…read more I had a reservation from Oct. 4th - Oct. 11th in room 6. Throughout my stay I encountered a number of unpleasantries, the most disturbing of which began on the evening of Oct 10th.  The first thing I noticed upon settling in was how much I could hear commotion from neighboring rooms. Loud reverberant footsteps from the guests directly above - both with shoes and socks - were abnormally invasive. I requested earplugs but they were largely ineffective. When switched to heat, the HVAC system sounded like a dumpster falling down a flight of stairs. Towels contained hair on them, a countless amount of small fruit flies circled in the kitchen and throughout the room, and I even discovered a small cockroach crawling on the bathroom floor.  However, starting at around 5pm on Oct 10th, a loud party began in the room directly next door. Pounding music and yelling that continued to escalate with alcohol dominated all night. I had phoned the front desk at 9pm, again at 10pm, and finally at 2am. Despite the front desk employees' claims to have asked the guests to discontinue the noise, they were ignored and the situation was never properly addressed. Loud drunken screaming arguments broke out inside and spilled into the hallways and balcony. At one point a woman began crying in the hall. I have taken several video recordings to document just some of the noise. I probably could have actually gotten some sleep in my car. This is completely inexcusable and brazenly unprofessional from a business standpoint. The sort of negligence and treatment I received was baffling. These guests should have been fined and removed. Instead, the noise was allowed to continue through my checkout process at 3:30am and I got no sleep despite having a 2am wake up for a flight. Front desk staff simply threw up their hands and took a helpless position. Guests were left to fend for themselves. I heard several try and fail to get anyone to stop the noise. Needless to say, I will not be returning to this hotel. As a professional who travels frequently to NY, I think my associates, partners, and friends should be informed to steer clear. I don't see how the cost was justified in the slightest. Paying to be sleep deprived is not exactly my idea of a pleasant stay. If this "hotel" had an ounce of integrity, they'd be reviewing all guests who stayed during this mayhem and comp the evening at the very least. I've emailed the manager Peter and have not received a response. Abject failure as an establishment and a marvel they're in business.

Deb def wanted to prob kill us but she was so patient Bc we were absolutely just wanting to go swim with our other friend staying here lol, no disrespect Deb- you were great and we appreciated you! Wisteria has 6 rooms total you can see them listed on the site, we stayed upstairs in the Louise which was perfect. Rooms were clean and new, this is the first summer they were open, I believe. There is a pool, beach towels and chairs available for your use during your time. The common area has a kitchen where Deb had a light fare available to us for some grab and go stuff but I believe the next day she was actually making real breakfast, we ran off to our friends house instead, so we missed that. Don't you dare step behind debs invisible line in the kitchen; AKA, behind the kitchen counter .. that's her domain.. lol The only thing that is annoying is that you cannot have any guests visit you and no men are allowed. I believe the only ways the rules will be bent is if you and your posse rent out the guesthouse in its entirety. The rooms by the pool are larger; just FYI. Oh and she did offer a Prosecco and cheese/light bites at around 530pm? We missed that too, lol. Overall, great stay highly recommend without reservation... Amazing touch upon check out, she gave us a little wisteria tote bag with a Turkish towel inside :)
