What Pod Times Square actually is
Pod Times Square runs 665 compact rooms across a purpose-built tower at 42nd and Ninth, on the edge of Hell's Kitchen. Rooms are small but properly engineered, with full-wall windows, and unlike Pod 51 all of them have private bathrooms.
The Rooftop at Pod on the 28th floor has skyline views south and east, and the location is a five-minute walk from Times Square, Port Authority and the theatre district while sitting on a considerably calmer stretch of street.
