I stayed here for five nights. Functional rooms of not particular cleanliness. I disliked the airless bathrooms. In the middle of summer, they are not pleasant. But, hey, I was not there for the luxurious surroundings, plus it is a hostel after all. Their breakfast is good quality, but is extremely poorly served. With a little rearrangement and some sensible... more

I have been living in New York for some months now, and the thing about this city is that accommodation and space is expensive. There are millions of people traveling here to this tiny island and there has to be somewhere to house them all. I have stayed in the Chelsea for 2 nights. The people arent that friendly, but... more

This was our first hostel experience in the USA, but having had many since then I feel able to write a well-rounded review. We booked in to a private room for 5 nights.

I stayed at this hostel for a whole week and the first six days were ok. The rooms were quite small and hot and the beds were not that good, but it all worked out somehow. But everything went wrong with the reservation. They have this summer offer "stay here for 4 nights and get the 5th night for free"... more

Having not stayed in a hostel before, and in all honesty being a bit of a snob about it, I thought this place was brilliant. I stayed with my friend in a private room with bunk beds which was perfectly adequate in size. It had shelves for storage, a sink and mirror and the beds were comfy and clean, if... more

we had booked to stay there for 5 nights with a room requested for 4 and a bathroom. The "Jack Osborne" look alike was the most obnoxious person ever! We hadn't had confirmation of our reservation but when we got there were told that we could stay the night by "Jack" and that we would have to see the next... more
