Guest Reviews

Barbara (10/5): - Hola, paso por aquí a recomendar, me he alojado por 4 días aquí y para ser un hostal la atención ha sido excelente, me colocaron cerca de un baño , me sentí muy cómoda y tranquila a un precio asequible! La ubicación estaba bien,hasta he podido dejar mi maleta después del check out por un par de horas! Lo recomiendo es excelente el lugar.
Craig (6/5): - The location was outstanding for our needs near Central Park, and near the subway to get to our Broadway show. The service was very friendly and responsive to our needs. Our room, however, was better suited for a single traveler, and the biggest issue was a very soft mattress that neither one of us slept well on.
Jose (2/5): - My husband chose this because it said “boutique guest house.” It is the most minimal of hostels. It is for traveling students. It is not for anyone looking for any semblance of comfort. It is ugly, uncomfortable, loud, creepy, and inhospitable.
Christopher (10/5): - Great place to for travelers!
Matthew (4/5): Not clean, but safe and cheap - We knew this was a hostel-like situation, so we were not expecting a lot. However on the day of our arrival we received a message that their “ normal checking times are between 3 and 5 PM” but that we could “choose to check in after that for a small fee of $25.” They also offered to give us the WiFi password but they would not tell it to us and wanted to personally enter it on our phones. Even after doing that, the WiFi passwords were not correct and they refused to tell us what it was. That interaction was bizarre. There was a small ac unit which worked, but it was on the floor, and was rather loud and took up space. The bathroom was dirty: the toilet needed cleaning, there were dark colored stains on the walls near the toilet, the tiles needed scrubbing, and the toilet paper dispenser was held on the wall with some goo and that was falling off. The bathroom was the worst part of it all. If you’re comfortable with low cleanliness, this is fine. It was safe and the people were nice (WiFi debacle excluded). Overall 3/10
Bessie (10/5): - I stayed at the McGaw guesthouse with my husband and seven month old baby. The goats were super accommodating, friendly, and really made our stay comfortable. I am looking forward to returning.
Peter (2/5): - Avoid at all costs. I left because the behaviour of the proprietor made me feel unsafe. I endured one hour of her screaming at staff and guests, threatening to kick another guest out. Expedia needs to remove this property asap
Hayley (2/5): - DO NOT STAY HERE! From the moment I got off the train and walked to this property, I felt extremely unsafe. Upon arrival, I noticed the front window was cracked as if someone had attempted to break in and the front of the property was defaced. I am a well seasoned traveler who thought she had seen it all, but I have never stepped foot inside such a suspicious and disorganized Bed and Breakfast. There was junk, tools, and chemicals strewn through out the hallway and the door on my room didn’t have a proper lock. Quite frankly, I was genuinely afraid to sleep there and immediately checked out and booked a different stay in a better part of town and I am so glad I did.

Pedro (2/5): - This was a terrible experience. The room and bathroom lack hygiene and really dirty. There was something off with the woman that received us… Very uncomfortable…once we looked at everything we left right away! Still working on the refund…
Verified traveler (8/5): - Staff , extremely accommodating
Nivaldo (8/5): - Good
Cecilia (6/5): Not for a typical tourist - It was a different place and not at all what I expected. The owners were very friendly and the place was clean. Rooms were small and the A/C did not work so the room was hot and uncomfortable. This place was an experience for sure.
Golam (2/5): - I need my $182 refund. No front desk. The lady told me that her son took away all her room keys so she can’t open our room. gave us a small temp room which was filled with urine smell. PLEASE GIVE ME MY REFUND
Christian (6/5): - The owers were very friendly
Tim (10/5): - I read the mixed reviews and chose Macaw Guesthouse anyway - I am glad that I did. It was a reasonable option in expensive New York City and it was as described. Charming hosts who went out of their way to welcome me and ensure that I was comfortable. Short walk to transportation options and dining options nearby. Highly recommend and would stay again.
Monica (10/5): - They went above and beyond for us. 1) They came out and helped us find parking and gave us a tour of the facility. 2) THEY SHIPPED MY LOST WALLET TO WHERE I WAS STAYING! They have gone above and beyond. Very clean and very kind highly recommend!
