Great
Ideal for visiting NY because the location is perfect!

Do not have a large suitcase or ask for a room on the first floor maximum ;-). Otherwise nothing to complain about, the stay was very good and the hostel is ideally located in Manhattan. Bring earplugs for better sleep ^^

Clean and functional

The hostel is a little dated but it is clean and functional If it's for sleeping, it's perfect. The toilet flush was broken and I paid more than expected because I had to repay the advance I had given which I find more than average

Cramped and not very comfortable but for sleeping it's fine

The beds are comfortable but the whole hostel is uncomfortable and not very functional, especially in the kitchen. The wifi works half the time. And the bathroom is not always very clean and impractical.
