This place has gone downhill
Bed was terribly uncomfortable. Loud music each night till after 2. Could hear neighbors having sex. Thermostat was malfunctioning and the room was so hot we had to open the windows in January. Sink faucet was constantly leaking, was loose, and one of the valves was installed backwards. Shower head was damaged and spurted most water pressure away from you. Lights were flickering. Window blinds were broken. I stayed here 2 years ago and really enjoyed it. But it seems they just aren't maintaining the hotel well.

Convenient and Beautiful
The Hotel is conveniently located near the empire state bldg and subway station. We had a very small room with double bunk beds for a family of 4, but the property is beautiful old vintage structures. Daily parking is expensive at $60. Better leave it outside and pay the meter. TY

First time visit - would def stay there again.
This hotel was perfect for our last minute visit to NY at a very busy time of year. We love the location (quieter area than Times Sq but has everything you need...food, access to subway/bus, shopping, parks, Christmas markets, etc)

6/10 Good

Fair.
Pretty good, it was quiet. Noise from the hallways easily travels in but couldn't hear my neighbors. Premium queen is a tight room, but clean and comfortable. The light in the shower and the light above the door constantly flickered while on. Although the faux wood blinds have a nice esthetic, one of the blades was broken leaving a good 2 inch viewing slot into my room. Also the outlet on the right side of the bed was too loose to hold anything I plugged in.

Wonderful staff but booming loud music all night
The Freehand Hotel has a very nice lobby, a good restaurant, and good-enough rooms. It was somewhat reasonably priced, at least compared to other hotels nearby. Every person we interacted with who worked at the hotel -- front desk, housekeeping, security -- was exceptionally friendly and helpful. Big however: There is a club in the hotel. The club played blasting music that we could hear in our room. The club was still playing music at 4 am, when I finally went to the front desk to complain. It was simply impossible to sleep. Regardless of the wonderful staff, you couldn't pay me enough to go back to this place.
