I love this place. 2nd time staying here. Very clean and in a great location. Very close to many hot spots on the city. The price is great for what you get. The bathrooms are shared, but I never had to wait to use it. I will say that there is no elevators in the building, so if you are not staying on the first floor you have to use the stairs. Not a huge deal as it keeps you in shape, just like the walking in the city does! For parking we used the Madison Square garden garage, as it is just 2 blocks away.

Great location and easy accessible for all the New York, I am rating 3 only because I had a hard time to lift and bring down my two 50lbs each luggage to 5th floor, and the bathroom of 5th floor is very stinky for my entire 3 night stay

Great Manhattan spot if you’re looking for somewhere affordable and easy access to the subway!!! Double bed room was small for 2 people but it was a comfortable bed and air/heat was effective. Never had issues waiting for shared bathroom as there were multiple bathrooms on every floor. Five floors and stairs are narrow so not very accessible but that’s the case with most older buildings. Walls are thin so expect to hear people moving about, but again, if you’re looking for a safe and affordable option for staying in Manhattan that has easy transportation, it checked all of those boxes which worked for us! Tina at the front desk was a delight and the other staff I interacted with in passing were kind and courteous.

Eh..

Staff was available but felt off in that they didn’t verify my ID. Common areas (kitchen and bathroom) were nicely updated. The bedroom itself was clean but walls looked like they can used a paint or cleaning. For some reason the heat was on despite the high for the day being 70

Liked: Cleanliness
Cons: Extremely small room, no wash clothes, no bed blanket (had to ask for one), 5th floor walk up (no elevator), and lots of heavy slamming doors throughout the night. Pros: Great location, secure building and rooms, and friendly staff. Note: This is a hostel so you get to share a bathroom with 4 other rooms per floor.
