It's exactly what you pay for. Where else can you stay in NYC for this price? The bed was very uncomfortable and the provided sheet left me freezing through out the night...Other than that, it's a roof over your head for a great price.

No amenities except Wi-Fi, but only on ground floor. Low rates but only a few dollars less than another hostel 15 blocks uptown which offers a lot of amenities. Rooms are only 2 person rooms.

It's cheap which is excellent for a college student who visits NY for a one night stand or for anybody, who wants to save money. However the conditions for cheap payment comes with poor quality.

It's a good place, for the price it's great you share a room with only one person and people that work here are chilled and leave you alone, you don't have to pay a fee for the deposit. Nice thing is that you have the bath and shower room to your self and it is not like other places where there are 3 showers in one room. It's not a luxury 7star place but it's been my favorite budget place in NYC so far

Offered to stay in the lobby
they over booked so we were told to sleep in the lobby or go somewhere else at 1am. The lobby already had 3 people sleeping in it and it was a tiny closet like room. No refunds for their mistakes either

Not as bad as some say
People have been a little hard on this place. Yes it is pretty low-end but does have the basics. They are right to say bring your own towel and blanket though. And soap for hand/shower

The staff were nice and we were right next to the subway stop. However, it took 40 minutes to check in since when we arrived no one was at the front desk (another person had also been waiting even longer than us). The sheets were also dirty and we saw a bed bug. Definitely bring your own blanket if you get cold. They also didn't have soap in the bathroom to wash your hands and the showers were dirty.

The people who run this place are nice enough but they need to do a far better job maintaining the place. They should make sure toilet paper and soap is stocked up in every bathroom, air blowers are functioning, and that the showers are consistently cleaned.

The staff is helpful but the facilities are pretty bad the door lock system has only one key which is only accessible by the staff so you cant keep going and coming back to the room without being escorted by the staff member.
