Sasha M. Families - 7/7/2026 Confirmed reviews ALL

The Olsen was a very friendly place to stay. It is well located on Chapel Street, with plenty of restaurants and shops close by. The staff were consistently friendly and helpful, which made the stay easy and welcoming.That said, the hotel is starting to look a little tired and could benefit from some upgrades. Even though the rooms are comfortable, they do feel a bit worn; the wooden flooring is chipped in places and the elevators make a terrible banging sound, which is quite noticeable.Overall, despite these maintenance issues, our stay was still easy, painless and comfortable, and the location and staff were definite highlights.
