Greg JacobsFebruary 22, 2014As a New Yorker, I could not recommend a better location for a gateway to the city. Near every neighborhood downtown with quick access to trains. Nice roof top. Clean rooms. Great common room.
RochMay 31, 2017Good place if you want to crash for one night. It can be noisy, you have to share the bathroom with other guests. But it's perfectly located and everything is in good condition.
Kate HartmanApril 29, 2014These rooms do not have ceilings. In addition to hearing the sound of 30 other people sleeping you can also see light from neighboring "rooms". Earplugs and an eye mask are a must.
Donelle BMay 9, 2013This is like when you went to camp - but instead of cabins it's a room with 3 sets of bunk beds - the top is the best. However you have to walk up 3 flights of stairs to even get into the place.- Annie LuOctober 12, 2012Shrimp calzone is surprisingly good. Porcini ravioli ans pork cheek are both amazing. They serve bfast all day too.
It would be nice if the web site says something about not having an elevator, but the staff is amazing and really helpful 😊- Try Freemans just round the corner on rivington, great restaurant, no reservations. alternatively prince st is full of excellent restaurants
- Try the room with a window and a bit more room - well worth it. Wonderful affordable place to crash with friendly folk
Nson HoAugust 5, 2013Clean, friendly staffs, clean toilet. Quite a good place to stay for short period as it is cost effective~- Friendly, clean, cool and reasonably priced. Great Place to meet interesting people from all over the world.
Lotta SaxeSeptember 23, 2018It’s ok if you’re not too picky and want to spend your money on other than a bed for the night. Even with earplugs it’s noisy and there is only one bathroom for women and one for men. Lots of stairs.
Jeremy EdgeSeptember 9, 2017Not sure why people are defending this place. My guess is that they are unaware of private rooms via airbnb. Where you get a ceiling and dont have to hear people going to the bathroom all night
ᴡ HayMay 13, 2012Affordable and clean. Cabins have an open ceiling and you can hear everything your neighbour is doing. Worse on the weekends!
Samantha PennerAugust 20, 2012Everything on the menu is simply delicious. Try the pizza, its's fantastic.
Shermans TravelAugust 8, 2012Some rooms may lack en-suite bathrooms, but Ralph Lauren towels, heated bathroom floors, and Red Flower bath products go a long way to make up for it. Read more
Seva IvanovOctober 30, 2012Showers are busiest at around 10:00am. Don't forget to bring your lock if you want to use a locker.
Felipe JeronimoAugust 22, 2012A place made only to carry backpacks... There's no lift and stairs... MANY STAIRS... But, there's a good place...
Iva StefanovskiOctober 31, 2019Horrible stay. I paid 147 dollars for one night. Room was so small i couldnt even open my suitcase. The ladies toilet flush was broken and i had to use male bathroom. No breakfast. Broken toilet
Anybody complaining about this hostel is an idiot. It's clean, it's in a great area, and you get your own space for under $50. Best value accomodation in NYC, end of story.
Bring your eyemask and earplugs. Seriously the LOUDEST hostel in human history. Don't know if it was just rude people there when i was there but this is insane. Seriously.
Nicolas BottaroNovember 11, 2011Not bad. Location great. Clean and safe. Although the 69 fare room is a too small. The rest works ..
M FloOctober 1, 2012You get one towel, & they're only changed every six days so bring an extra. The showerheads are directly above so if you don't want wet hair bring a shower cap. A bathrobe & flip flops are a must.
You know what? You get what you pay for. $68/night for a private room in Manhattan could be a lot worse. Super-clean, friendly and great location. Yes it's loud. They give you earplugs for a reason.
Ly CamposJune 22, 2014Cabines pequenas, mas achei tudo limpo e pessoal atencioso. O melhor é que fica entre o Soho, Chinatown e Little Italy, podendo fazer tudo a pé e se precisar, várias estações de metro por perto!
Robert BobJuly 25, 2015Бывшая ночлежка для бездомных, говорят, планировка сохранилась) неплохое место для того, чтобы остановиться на 1 ночь менее чем за 100$. Отличный вай-фай!
Richard DragicJanuary 23, 2012Definitivamente, não é o melhor local para vc se hospedar. Não se esqueça do fone de ouvido e uma música relaxante se quiser ter uma boa noite de sono!
Excelente, trankilo y muy barato Volvere..,, excelent, quiet, and good orices ill come back
Recomendo pra pessoas aventureiras e que não gostem de dormir muito... Apesar de não ser permitido na area dos quartos, muito barulho acontece
