Guest Reviews

• Romero (6/5): -
• Sofia (5/5): - Good location. Good relation price/quality. Too much noise from the street, no insonorization, but they offer earplugs. There is bar nearby with loud music until 7 am.
• Satyendra Nath (7/5): -
• B (1/5): - No ac and smelled with bed bugs
• Mariah (5/5): -
• Ádám (6/5): -
• Bruna Eduarda (4/5): The place is in a good location, but is very loud during the night! - The property is in a good location and the price is cheap! The restroom was clean The hostel has a private cabin but is together with 35 other rooms all sharing the same ceiling, so it’s very loud, you can imagine sleep with 35 different people so it gets very loud at night, some go out, some snoring! It was ok for the price but be aware is very loud during the night! There is also a bar under the hostel, one of the nights I was staying they played music pass 2 am, you could hear as you were in the bar, the walls even shake.
• Kouyate (8/5): L'ambiance est formidable. - Le personnel est très aimable et disponible. Le local est propre Mode de paiement obligatoire en ligne. Heures de checkin est tardif et check-up. est très tôt
• Jones (5/5): -
• Edward (2/5): No sleep - Location Fire alarm went off at night and the lights wouldn’t stop flashing. There is also a private event space beneath which played extremely loud music till 6.30am. Tried to sleep with noise cancelling headphones and could still hear the sound. This was a Saturday so might be ok on other days of week…..
• Taha (9/5): -
• Val (10/5): :)! - Yaaaayyyyy!!!!!
• Gabriela (8/5): Confortável Hostel - A privacidade das cabines, sendo hostel tem bastante. O chuveiro não esquentava
• Thierry (10/5): - Accueil agréable et professionnel. Site atypique et bien adapté à un voyage de découverte de la ville de New York. Rien
• Cochrane (4/5): Frankly speaking. - Communal atmosphere in the morning I left I guess I made a decision based on cost and not information. If the objective of the business is what I suspected, then probably the stay was worth the price. As for me, our objectives were misaligned; hence, not worth it despite the cost effectiveness of the business. I believe the purpose of the business should be clearly identified.
• Hee (2/5): Never booking - Toooooooo small and a lot of noise, I couldn’t sleep. So small and It’s so incredibly noisy
• Christopher (1/5): 300$ smoking fee refunds - 300$ smoking fee needs refunds after 2 weeks never hi give me my 300$ back 2 hours please update my account please 300$ smoking refunded
• Li Hung (9/5): 適合多數時間在外探索，只是要有個地方休息放東西，或是不那麼在意睡眠品質的旅客 - 整潔：多數人會碰到的地方蠻乾淨的，不過房間地板牆角之類的很髒 房間大小：我覺得很夠，除了一張單人床，大約能再放得下三個登機箱。 共用空間：蠻溫馨的，空間夠大，可以在這邊聊天做事。有簡單的飲水機、微波爐、冰箱、茶包咖啡包等。 治安：兩三個街區外是酒吧夜店，不過我感到很安全 員工：遇到的兩位櫃檯&清潔人員都蠻親切的 隔音：會聽到馬路上的聲音，然後房間天花板因為防火原因是聯通的，吵不吵端看同住一層樓的房客。我住的兩晚房客們都很守規矩輕聲細語，但外面馬路都在施工，淺眠的不建議來住。建議自備耳塞及眼罩(我的房間剛好在窗邊，早上超亮) 浴室&廁所&洗手台：多，但是蠻壅擠的，我172/60
• Sofiane (8/5): - Location The price
• Kopecka (8/5): -
• Steinbock (9/5): - The staff were really nice and helpful. In my first room the electric didn’t work so I got a new room in no time
• FATMA (10/5): - Amazing location for a great price and very kind staff
• Perez (10/5): - The thrifty vintage miscellaneous decor, the tiny rooms ( i love small rooms), the boarding house feel, the price, the simplicity, the location was right next to the Bowery Ballroom where I went to see Boy Throb the newest boy band sensation. I will DEFINITELY be back :) Some customers didn't follow the noise rule and would be on their phones. The slamming of the doors (just how the doors work)
• christian (7/5): -
• Carlos (8/5): -
• Rylen (10/5): -
• Sylwia (3/5): It was my last time here. - The common areas were nice. Whole place feels, very dark and depressing. The vintage pods feel like cells, open ceiling makes it impossible to sleep without earplugs. There was an aircon above my unit which made it extra cold. Bathrooms need more cleaning.
• Jacob (10/5): -
• Eugene (7/5): Fine for one night when you’re in Manhattan and just need to sleep a few hours. - Good location Hated the 10am check out. Far too early. Penalties for staying past the check out time.
• luca (8/5): - Posizione ottima nel cuore di Nolita a due passi da Little Italy e Chinatown. Leggero odore di muffa nella camerata di fianco vicino ai bagni
• Gabriel (9/5): - Première fois dans un pod, le concept est génial, ça permet d'avoir presque les prix d'un dortoir mais avec un peu plus de confort et d'intimité
• Andrés Carvajal seleme (4/5): Normal - La ubicacion Algunos pasajeros hablando muy fuerte....
• Mihai (10/5): -
• Alyssa (7/5): -
• Joshua (8/5): -
• Javier (5/5): Muy básico todo y prohíben hablar por tel en la habitación, se escucha todo de las otras piezas, ronquidos, pedos, tos e - La ubicación, el lugar en común o sea la cocina y el estar. La pieza no tiene techo, el espacio aéreo se escucha todo de las otras piezas, no se puede hablar por teléfono en las habitaciones está prohibido, eso no avisan al contratar. El baño tiene solo 1 inodoro para 20 piezas.
• Petruta Maria Camelia (3/5): -
• erick (4/5): - That is your own space that’s about it There is one bathroom for every floor wtf is that about and a long line to use that same one bathroom that’s insanity , I like nothing about it
• Mihai (10/5): -
• Jak (10/5): - It was ideal for someone like myself going on a last minute trip or someone who wanted to save money on the accommodation for more to spend within and around the city, easy to get around and 2 metro lines close that can go south north or to Brooklyn The showers were a bit temperamental but I got it figured out, my first one was stone cold, second one scolding hot but after that I figured it out
• Alexandra (10/5): 10/10!! - Everything is clean! Amazing environment Sean is great, all of the staff members are nice!! I have stayed here 2 times as a girl and felt safe made friends and in a great location!! I wish it was cheaper Hahha
• Supapan (6/5): -
• TJ (10/5): - No friction checking in Stairs are hard
• Renata (1/5): bad - Na chegada, cobraram uma taxa extra alegando que o valor seria devolvido depois do check-out, mas isso nunca aconteceu. Faltou transparência e organização nesse processo. Os banheiros eram extremamente escuros, deixando o ambiente desconfortável e pouco prático. A cozinha também deixou muito a desejar, praticamente sem utensílios básicos para uso dos hóspedes. Além disso, o atendimento foi ruim durante toda a estadia. A equipe demonstrou pouca disposição para ajudar e zero flexibilidade para resolver problemas ou atender solicitações simples. No geral, a experiência não correspondeu às expectativas e eu não recomendaria o hostel.
• Viajante solitária (10/5): - Os quartos são individuais o q ajuda muito. Adorei. Voltaria sempre. Roubaram minha comida na geladeira
• Javan (9/5): -
• Alice (9/5): Great location, value for money - The common areas are lovely and cosy with plenty of space to hang out. I like the separate female only floor. The showers and toilet area on the female floor. There were just 3 toilets and 3 showers for the whole floor. The shower spaces were really small and awkward to use.
• Maria (7/5): -
• Estrada (7/5): It was worth my stay, i just needed a safe place to rest. I would book again if im traveling alone to NY :) - Clean and quite place to rest The man’s restroom were decent enough but there could be more cleaning routine given that so many people use it.
• 00007777 (9/5): -
• Sliece-Strazdiņš (8/5): -
• Zhenfei (7/5): - Everything was okay but someone threw up on the bathroom floor the day I left and stayed there for a while. But was overall decent.
• 00007777 (10/5): -
• Danielsson (7/5): Overall good experience - Nice to have my own room, the common room was also nice Extremely cold room
• Brandon (5/5): Banned - Nice. I was banned.
• Sergei (7/5): -
• Felipe (8/5): -
• Laury (10/5): Super séjour, très agréable facile d'accès avec une personne très chaleureuse a l'accueil. - L'emplacement est super, les équipements présents, tels que les serviettes de bain, des bouchons d'oreilles, masque de nuit ou encore le savon à disposition dans les douches sont des petits plus qui sont très arrangeant. Peut-être mettre un peu plus de vaisselle à disposition dans les espaces comme la cuisine.
• Panuwat (10/5): -
• Gilbert (5/5): - The reception is unattended half the time. A little bit of peace and quite at night.
• Duran Lira (1/5): Un verdadero asco de hostal - Nada , un asco las instalaciones y la atencion del personal . Todo , el personal tomo una chaqueta mia que contenia una camara de mas de 800 dolares y la perdieron y no se quisieron hacer responsables . Como recomendacion el hotel es un asco . Las sabanas estaban sucias cuando llegue y el aire condicionado casi estaba bajo cero . Los baños sucios siempre y el olor un asco . Porfavor que nadie se quede ahi
• Caitlyn (9/5): Great stay with caring staff who went above and beyond after my minor fall. - The staff members are great! I had a little fall down the stairs and the receptionist at the counter helped accommodate my injury and made sure I was taken care of properly. Overall, I did enjoy my experience at this cute hostel! The bathrooms could have been cleaner and better stocked, as one had unraveled toilet paper left on the counter for most of my two night stay along with some hair and debris, though I understand this can come with shared facilities. Aside from that, everything else was well maintained.
• Sara (4/5): - Location is good 100$ for a glorified shoebox is a bit much if you ask me. I would be ok with paying 50$, but i guess thats how things work in NY
• Kebia (3/5): -
• Rodrigo (7/5): - custo beneficio de local e preço muito próximo do metrô acesso fácil a vários restaurantes barulho dos outros guests, muitos faziam barulho sem se importar com os demais bebedouro com água não muito boa
• David (7/5): - Beautiful and comfortable shared space. Good to work or talk. The rooms are really small, especially the bed. The sheets are very light and the pillow too soft, so you have to pay extra to get more. The matress is not very comfortable. It is not bad, but all in all, I would not say it is good value for money. I know this is NYC, but 100$ per night for this is very expensive.
• Bethel (10/5): Excellent. Staffs were excellent. Great location. - Staffs were great and very helpful. A bit too cold. Needed bigger blankets.
• Denis Macena (7/5): Hostel com Custo beneficio em NYC - Custo benefícios do hotel comparando a outros locais da cidade, com os hotéis mais caros do mundo em NYC é uma boa opção ora economizar. Quartos pequenos e vazados em no teto o que vaza barulhos dos quartos ao lado
• Journeyman Giorgi (8/5): Great hostel with private rooms! Commons area has a wow factor. Decent value for NYC! - The commons area is beautiful, could never tell it is a hostel. It was great to have a private little room. Just enough space to store your things and head out to explore the city, then come back and have a small private room to rest and sleep. The small rooms are private but they do have an open roof, that is covered by wooden mesh ceiling, but you can hear others. Still much better than hostel bunk beds. - Bathrooms were a little small, but that's typical for NYC. Wake up early to get ahead of the line. - At check-in, one of the staff members seemed so annoyed that I was requesting to check-in early, made it seem like it's a hassle to do their job and be somewhat welcoming. 2nd day staff was much nicer.
• Merouane (1/5): -
• Danielo (8/5): Good location.good value - Good location. Clean and pleasant lobby area. You check in online. You check out online. No human interaction required. And at the end it ask you for tips. And starting at 20%. For whom. My own cellphone for doing everything myself?
• Bethel (10/5): My stay was great, and the place was very cleaned and quite organized. - Extremely cleaned. The room could be a little warmer.
• Merouane (1/5): -
• Hollie (2/5): - Very noisy. People angrily yelling at each other due to noise.
• John (7/5): Compromise on sleeping, which is really not why you visit NYC. Price value LOCATION. This place is tops!! - Unbeatable location, “Northern Little Italy” just below Houston. The massive entrance staircase
• IRENE (9/5): Perfect - Silence Silence
• Christophe (3/5): - D'avoir été 2 fois prélevé le prix d'une nuit !
• Manuela (10/5): -
• Kasturi (8/5): Pretty good for one night while travelling on a budget - Location is pretty good (in manhattan, close to the 6 line) and was not hard to find. the place is very basic, rooms are just a bed and a lamp and some hooks, except the lobbies, which are amazingly decorated in a retro (20s?) style. rooms were clean and sufficient, but very cold (blankets cost extra, they only provide a sheet). there is a small kitchen, but I didn't use it, from what I saw I noticed a fridge and hot and cold (drinkable) water, so you can definitely make tea or coffee if you bring supplies. When I stayed there it was quiet and private, which is pretty amazing given how cheap it was. already covered, rooms are pretty bare and basic, can get very cold even in the summer, bathrooms worked but aren't the cleanest and most private (I didn't think they were as bad as some of the other reviews).
• Ace (5/5): Not good value - Location Bed, noisy
• Adrian (9/5): Comfortable, and restful throughout my stay! - Coziness Nothing not to like ………. great spot!
• Killian (9/5): -
• Karun (1/5): -
• Dalida (9/5): -
• Ofelia (10/5): Comfortable and Reasonable price - I had a good time. I slept one night there. The room and the bed were very clean. The place was quiet and the staff in the lobby is very friendly and helpful.
• Dalida (9/5): Magnifique - L’emplacement,le personnel et le décor incroyable.Je reviendrai si je reviens à New York Honnêtement pas grand-chose à part le bruit des clients parfois la nuit .
• Elijah (5/5): It was okay - The location and the vintage feel The bathroom only has only toilet for HOW MANY people? Also the people on the floor were just loud and disrespectful and the doors slam shut
• michelle (8/5): Great price and location - Comfortable bed, private pod, great price and location, nice decor in communal areas. Bed only had a very thin top sheet as a cover so I kept waking up as I was freezing. Also while they insist the damage deposit is just done as a pending hold and will be dropped upon checkout, the money has in fact been debited from my account and still not refunded 2 days later and counting.
• Sergio Ariel (7/5): -
• Fernanda (8/5): - yes
• Anna (9/5): - La localisation est super. Tout était propre. Le personnel est accueillant et répond à toutes les questions. Les chambres sont rudimentaires mais parfaitement conforme à ce qui est attendu. Bémol avec la prise électrique de la chambre : l’adaptateur (prise EU —> prise US) tient très mal.
• ENOCK (10/5): - Excellent services
• Estefania (10/5): Affordable privacy at a great location - The stay was good, I feared for the luggage in storage as it was unatended, you should have at least a camera inside the room, this service is so appreciated by just a bit of security will make this amazing. The saty was good overall, I am not used to this type of stays so if I compared with what I am used to, it isn't great at all. But considered you are more cost approachable than other places and offer tiny private spaces: it is great. Comfier bed and security for the luggage storage
• Sharon (9/5): -
• Kouider (10/5): -
• Bárbara (8/5): Bien por el precio - Los baños bien La cocina podría tener un lugar para cocinar, y el espacio común debería tener más tiempo para hacer ruido hasta tarde
• Justin (10/5): Wonderful stay - Very comfortable beds. Nice to have your own space Little bit noisy at night as it’s an open roof. But for price it makes up for it !
• Ludmila (8/5): -
• Ana Maria (10/5): Mis días en NY - Muy cerca a todo Huele mucho a tabaco
• Mayssa (9/5): -
