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.
The YMCA is a great place to stay in, its pretty close to the subway and next to central park. The only thing I didn't like about it was the looks of the space commons, it kinda feel like you were in jail, but besides that its an amazing hostel. I'd definitely go back to it.

Excellent location, easy check in, able to store a bag, and the price is unbeatable. Lost a star because the bathroom was a mess this time. Not dirty, but puddles of water on the floor next to the sinks, handles fell off the shower, sinks wouldn’t turn off, etc. Stayed on an upper floor last time with single person bathrooms and they were much nicer than the 8th floor with 3 person bathrooms.
Great location close to subway, Central Park and Broadway. Gym and pool were fabulous. Reception staff were very helpful. Rooms and bathrooms are older, often things didn't work eg lamp or no chair in the room and the bathrooms were cramped.

Clean but sparse furnishings, but that's what I wanted. I didn't go to NYC to spend all my time in a hotel room. Easy check in, great cardio room, quiet, clean bathrooms. Close to Lincoln Center, Central Park, Columbus Circle.
I will stay here again.
room with bad beds, bathrooms in terrible condition, the showers didn't heat the water, I had to take a cold shower, the only thing worth it is the location
The room was perfect. Bathroom could be cleaner but it worked. Night was cold and heater didn’t work, only 2 thin blankets. Pillow was terrible! Plastic? Bedding needs some work. Very safe though- didn’t ever feel vulnerable. Man at front desk was very friendly.
