Stayed here back in 2007 when travelling alone. It was cheap and basic. Cannot complain for the cheap price. Staff were all very helpful. If you are keen on cooking I would probably avoid as when I was there in 2007 kitchen facilities weren't great, but if this isn't a problem then this is a fantastic place. The position is... More

I generally stay in a hostel the first time I visit a new place. My experience is that they are beautiful, well kept and you can meet wonderful people during your stay. The only good thing about this hostel is the location. This was worse than being in jail. We checked in and were immediately shocked by the accommodations. The... More

Had a pretty decent stay at this hostel. Was an excellent price for New York City and very clean for New York City considering the number of disgusting hostels and hotels there are in the city! NO bedbugs, and the room was kept very clean. They made our bed each day as well which is not usual in hostels. Pretty... More

This is a great little hostel, it's on 95th just off Broadway close to subways and Central Park. I've stayed here twice and i've found the staff to be really friendly and helpful. I always end up arriving early and there is always a place for me to store my luggage until I can check in. The rooms are quite... More

Nice big room with a double bed. Clean towels everyday and we had our bed done everyday. The people at the front desk not very friendly. Great location one block away from Subway and restaurants, deli, groceries, nearby. The neighbours in front quite noisy. More
