8/10 Very good

This s an unusual place. The rooms are like little cubby holes. Absolute no frills. Just a bed. But comfortable. There is no ceiling, so one hears every snorer, and sounds. But the rooms are safe. Checking in was

6/10 Good

You basically pay the price for the location. The room is only for a small bed. You could hear all the sounds of the whole floor, no noise canceling.

Exceeded expectations
Booked a last minute trip to NY during Christmas, and this was all I could find that wasn't $1k+ a night, so I wasn't expecting to much. This place is awesome. The room was much better than I thought, yeah the ceilings are open, but it's whatever. I LOVED the septate men's and women's floors it made me feel very safe. The line for the bathrooms gets a little crowded in the am, but it's whatever. The location is perfect! I walked around and solo at all different times and always felt safe. It's like a 5 min walk to Little Italy, and like 10 mins to China Town. Nice and clean, very cute decor.

Perfectly fine .. door slamming not funny
The Hostel Was Perfectly Fine the only Criticism i have as Regarding about the Noise levels i think its ridiculous that u can be fined £100 and asked to vacate the property even thought all the door locks and slammi g of the doors isnt quiet and had actually ruined my sleep for the 2 nights ... with constant banging of doors at 7-8am

Great stay!
I’ve stayed in several hostels and this one far exceeded my expectations. The smallness of the room was totally fine! Bathrooms always clean. Nice kitchen was also clean. Felt very safe there. Loved being on the female only floor. Comfortable sitting in the living room in my pajamas!

8/10 Very good

its okay for a hostel and low price
It was very clean. I was on the 4th but spent time on the 3rd. The male person that worked did come into the womens area, and looked at me crazy when i told him it was womens only. It was rude (dark skin black guy with short twist hair). I would stay here again if I couldnt find anyplace else. Didnt like the 4 flights of stairs no elevators, but all was doable.
lisa, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

I really enjoyed staying here. The rooms were small but cozy. It was hard sleeping while being able to hear others snoring, but they provided ear plugs to help!
Lindsay, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

I liked it is centric and close to subway and bus. I didn't like the check in is "online"; the host should be in the reception to provide assistance.
SERGIO IVANHOE GARCIA, 5-night trip

2/10 Poor

Freezing, Noisy, and Uncomfortable Stay
I had a very unpleasant stay at this hotel. The room had a wooden lattice ceiling, which meant I could hear everything from the neighboring room—including my neighbor snoring all night. It was extremely noisy and lacked privacy. There was only one women’s toilet for the entire floor. The room was also extremely cold. The only blanket provided was thin, and there was no proper duvet. I spent the entire night freezing. To make matters worse, the emergency door/window was left open.

Excellent area to stay in little Italy, Chinatown and Soho all near by! Beware building has no elevators. Overall great experience!!!
