At the hostel, all rooms come with a private bathroom with a shower. Location, facilities, sleep quality! I shared a room with 3 other people and didn't hear them arrive or leave. I had easy 7 to 8 hours of sleep straight! I slept so good 10am is the check-out I woke up 10:30am my final day (i'm sorry! I rushed to check-out as soon as I realized) Location is amazing! Subway A, C, B, D any trains could take you anywhere in Manhattan to Brooklyn. I came to New York for a concert in Brooklyn and was at the venue within 30 minutes! Facilities is great too! Kitchen is sufficient, washroom always clean everyone is so respectful of your space. staff is super helpful too. i'm surprised they dont have a higher rating. One of the best hostels i've stayed at!

This uptown New York hostel is 1 block from Broadway Street and a 10-minute walk to Central Park. It features free Wi-Fi, a movie lounge, and a large patio.

HI NYC Hostel is a 2-minute walk from the 103rd Street Subway Station, a 12-minute walk from Riverside Park, and an 18-minute train ride to Times Square. I really enjoyed my stay in the hostel! Great location just by the metro (line 1), with a great supermarket (Gristedes) and a great bagel place (Broadway Bagels) nearby. I was travelling solo and for more than one day I arrived when it was already dark (one day I even needed to leave one subway station before because of line maintenance) and I felt safe to walk by myself (female) in the area, there was still a lot of people around despite being around 10pm. The restrooms are not my favorite setup (I prefer when you have several “normal” restrooms instead of a huge room with rows of showers etc), but I get this is much more space efficient for a place with its dimensions. The restrooms were always clean, no complains about that. I loved the blackout/privacy curtains, and the locker was big enough to store a medium size suitcase plus one backpack. I asked in advance for a bottom bunk, and they were happy to accommodate that, and I was also able to check in one hour ahead of the time scheduled. The common areas are great, the patio is out of this world and the kitchen is huge and very well equipped. There is also a café inside that opens by 6am with a lot of options (not the cheapest, but it was great to have it inside the property). There was a small light in the room by the floor, which I thought was a great touch so people who arrive when everyone is already sleeping could use a light without bothering everyone. I would definitely recommend and stay again.

Located in New York, 3.2 km from Metropolitan Museum of Art, East Harlem Hostel features express check-in and check-out and free WiFi throughout the property. The property is set 4.9 km from Strawberry Fields, 4.9 km from Central Park and 5.4 km from Yankee Stadium. The property is non-smoking and is situated 3.1 km from Columbia University. Location was perfect for me, as I was visiting a friend who lives in Archcare health facility. It was less than a mile to reach his nursing home and an easy walk with convenience stores and restaurants along the way. Neighborhood is a little rougher than some other parts of Manhattan, but I never felt unsafe. Hostel was impeccably clean and the housekeeping staff were excellent. One even helped me get my suitcase down the stairs on checkout day!

Set in New York, 600 metres from Bloomingdale'S, The Nolita Express Hostel offers air-conditioned rooms and a shared lounge. The property is located 2.5 km from National September 11 Memorial & Museum, 2.5 km from One World Observatory and 3.2 km from One World Trade Center. The property is non-smoking and is situated 1.1 km from New York University. The place is very unique and you can tell that they're caring for this place and its history. I felt the way and idea it is managed is always to make everything work smoothly. As with a place such as this, it needs to be well managed and maintained or it would soon be ruined. Everything is set for the travellers. No local or "permanents" at this place There's also an entire floor with own lounge for women too. Groovy location Les. NYC. Nice areas including the sitting areas in reception..
