Good location, friendly check in, fast elevators. Spartan room. Shower and sink area always water standing. Shower water hard to regulate. Vending machines out of order. Location is perfect, though.

This property has major plumbing issues, shower backs up and overflows, no hot water, leaky sink. This place remind me of a homeless shelter.

Price was great and based on that my expectations were low. Unfortunately it didn’t come close to meeting even my low expectations. Would not return.

Great hostel option in NYC. Quiet, clean, and a great location. Bathrooms have a code and a showers have a stall so you do have reasonable privacy/security.

We had our own room, I have to say it is well maintained considering the facility’s age. The staff was kind, and the location was great. Unfortunately, my aunt on the bottom bunk bed couldn’t sleep due to bed bug bites. I’m not sure if I could request a refund for this inconvenience.

Location is excellent and the staff is also amazing and super helpful. The only downside is the shared bathrooms, they urgently need renovation. The doora of the loo do not close. The bathrooms are terrifying.
