What Washington Jefferson Hotel actually is
The Washington Jefferson occupies a 1903 building on West 51st Street in Hell's Kitchen, renovated into a compact contemporary hotel with a Japanese-influenced interior. Rooms are small, some with shared bathroom configurations at the lowest rates.
The location is its strength. Ninth Avenue outside is one of the best eating streets in Manhattan, the theatre district is a five-minute walk east, and the rates are among the lowest for anything this central. There is a Japanese restaurant on site with a strong local following.
