The Jane Hotel
From the hotel:
In 1912, it sheltered survivors of the Titanic. It became a sailors’ haven in the 1920s. And in recent years, the storied 1907 waterfront building became a quirky “residential hotel.”
Now, following a personal restoration by hospitality veterans Sean MacPherson and Eric Goode, 113 Jane St. in Manhattan’s Far West Village is about to get a new life as The Jane-a unique 200-room micro hotel for young travelers with more dash than cash.
The hotel is set to open in stages throughout the Fall of 2008.

Eric Goode Doesn't Just Specialize in Hotels For Humans

Awesome movie night every Wednesday night!!
-
an East Village jewel -
Best bartenders in the city. -
Come on a Tuesday night and leave the bartender, Bianca, a huge tip. She is super sexy! -
My other 5th street go to. This place is a gem and possibly the closest replacement to Mars Bar you can find. -
Maddy hearts Bradley! Tip your bartender! -
241 happy hour every day til 8, and awesome movies on Wednesdays :) -
Tip the bartenders well and you'll always b treated well
-
Also, the two heated pipes against the wall do wonders for your back. It's like a hot tub. -
Wear your jacket and don't fall off your stool.
-
$6 PBR and well bourbon happy hour is appealing. As is the 4am and later lock-in where you can convince the bartenders to put on your iPod.
-
actually John Ross is mayor of fish bar.
The Jane Hotel is to be avoided
The rooms were tiny. I mean tiny. I knew that going in, and took a leap of faith that the rooms would be on par with the Ace Hotel chain, just smaller. Here's my takeaway from The Jane: - The bathroom for the floor was closed, so I was directed to the bathroom one floor down. - The staff was more interested in the line of hipsters going into the bar. Every night was a private party, so I didn't go into the bar and cannot speak to it. - It was under construction. Drywall was being hung 10 feet from my room. - You rely on an absent elevator operator to get you to your floor. Save up a few more bucks and go to a nicer hotel. Even at $99/nt, this was not a good value.
My closet has more room and Iraq is less dangerous. Good luck to this dump.
How unfortunate for what is supposed to be a boutique hotel to be so deceptive. In the middle of a construction zone, guests and SRO tenants have to walk through dangerous hallways, get scalded by extremely hot water, and deal with an extremely rude staff. Is this a new hotel concept? Maybe it should be used at the Maritime and Bowery as well. Good luck to this team of nincompoops (spelling?).
