Kiko was incredibly friendly and accommodating. Always a friendly smile and hello. We had a special request to use the freezer for some goods we had with us, and it wasn’t the slightest problem showing us the area to use.
Martin was also very friendly and vibrant. We had a great conversation as we waited for the elevator one late night when we came in.
This spot is in a great location for getting around manhattan easily. The skyline walkway is right there and takes you to the Chelsea market, and all up and down the west side.

This place is average on net. Positive: good location, good food and friendly staff.
Negative: so dirty. The mattress is on a wood panel and the wood panel is so dirty and sticky. I don’t even want to think what those sticky stains are. The room/elevator also smells. A lot of air freshener trying to mask some other smell. Also I was told by the front staff if I parked at MPG garage, I got 30 percent off. I even asked her to type in to my Waze to make sure. The next day, neither the new staff member nor the garage admits there is a discount. Parking is 90$ a day there. So 30 percent matters. I wish the staff can inform the guests consistently about the parking discount.
Other than that, good location. Reasonable price. But the room is dirty. And the table is too low to get any work done on my computer.

Had an amazing stay at the Selina Chelsea, the highlight of which was absolutely Martin, the nighttime manager! We arrived at five in the morning after a long night on the bus, borderline delirious, and he welcomed us SO warmly, was super helpful checking us in, and started our trip off great :) Every night that we were out we would be excited to come back and chat with Martin and tell him about our adventures. The hotel itself is in a great location, right next to the highline, 10 minutes from the closest subway, and close to the water. The rooms are pretty bare-bones (no fridge or closet) but do the trick, and there's a rooftop terrace and bar downstairs. Would recommend - also make sure to say hi to Martin :)
Anne Hathaway did not spit in my food.
Nice lobby, plus the only semi-public restroom at ground level for local gallery visitors. This one has an Annie "St. Vincent" Clark in it! I wonder who put that there? Someone please let me know if she sees it one day. Not sure about the rooms, but in my experience, hotels are just as iffy as other businesses.

Disappointing Stay
If you're looking for a spot in the middle of Chelsea for easy exploring, Selina Chelsea might seem like a good bet. But once you step inside, things go downhill pretty fast.
As you approach the reception desk, you're met with a wall of silence. The staff don't even bother to mutter a simple "hello" or "welcome." It's like they've taken a vow of silence, but forgot to tell the guests.
First off, forget about comfy carpets here. The floors are bare, which makes everything feel chilly and messy. And they don't even give you slippers to make up for it.
The bathtub? Gross. Not exactly what you want when you're trying to relax.
Noise is a big problem too. You can hear everything – your neighbours chatting, people outside your door, even loud music from the rooftop. Not exactly peaceful.
And let's talk about the staff. The folks at reception? Not friendly at all. They seem like they'd rather be anywhere else. But props to the housekeeping crew – they're nice.
Overall, Selina might look fancy in pictures, but in reality, it's just a disappointing, low-budget place with bad service. Save your money and find somewhere else to stay.
