Good location in terms of it being close to most tourist attractions, but a bit of a run down neighbourhood, friendly and helpful staff, very clean, private and secure, would absolutely stay there again. Beautiful amd clean shared living spaces overall great stay. Only problem was the temperature of the communal showers, stayed on all female floor and was very happy with my stay.

I really enjoyed staying here. The rooms were small but cozy. It was hard sleeping while being able to hear others snoring, but they provided ear plugs to help!

Very *very* basic, only one men's toilet and two showers for a whole floor counting approximately 30 rooms. No tablets and/or chairs in rooms or shower area, so be prepared to have all your stuff on the floors at all time. Not everything the traveler carries fits on 2 little hooks. No safe box available for precious belongings like passports. I know it's NYC and you can't expect too much, but as a seasoned traveler this was the most basic stay ever... Very small changes could make this much more enjoyable.

Teeny weeny room or closet if you will. Only one toilet for maybe 30 men and not very private shower. Was out of toilet paper first morning. Staff was super nice. They had great common areas and entertainment in the lobby. Jazz and comedy.

Can't beat the location. Best value for such a central spot. Was a bit of noise off the street, to be expected. Common areas were beautifully decorated! My biggest complaint was the snoring at night travelled really badly through the floor to other rooms! They did the best they could by providing ear plugs and masks for the light. The only thing I would suggest is put few more hooks / another shelf in the room bcs they are so small it would've been easier to spread some of my stuff out a bit. Lamp in my room was barely hanging onto the wall, seems people were probably using it as a hanger. Otherwise I couldn't have asked for a better hostel stay! Highly recommend!

Perfect for single traveler. (If you are shorter than 6 feet. because bed size is small) Ear plug is needed for sleep. Room ceiling is opened. So you can hear all noise and sounds around your room. But unbeatable price. I love this hotel.
