Basic dorm accommodations.

Good location and cool ac in private room. It is basically an old dorm room. I did like having access to the gym facilities. Only 1 towel was provided. No daily cleaning offered.

A spot for brave souls on the budget

A spot for brave souls on the budget. The bed was ok, the floor is dirty. 3 showers for the whole floor… the smell in the room was weird, the room size ok. You would want to come there as late as possible and leave as early as you can to enjoy the city or what you are for in NY. There might be better budget options out there…

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

Next to Central Park and a couple minutes walk to the subway which was convenient for getting around the city. Plenty of shops nearby for food and drinks. Room was basic but that’s all I needed. Bathroom was in a good condition

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.
