Staff Was very helpfully and heip my daughter how to use the subway in the area and restaurant

Emilio, United States of America

Good location close to Subway on the UWS. You'll need to use the subway to get around but it's cheap and part of the NY experience. Staff were helpful and friendly.

Jenn, Australia

The employees that work there are excellent. They were extremely nice with us. The hotel is very clean and the price was very good. We were walking distance to many places in Manhattan.

Edgardo, Puerto Rico

Front desk staff were friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable by NYC standards at this price level. Very close to a subway line and 4 blocks from a different line. Lots of restaurants and a fantastic market nearby.

Robert, Canada

Clean rooms and friendly staff. Good location close to Central Park and close to subway express lines.

Kristian, Sweden

Walked down to Times Square and the fashion district and west Central Park. It is basic but works well.

Chris, Canada

The location is nice since it makes you discovering other places than downtown. It's close to CP.

Cyril, United States of America

its not 5 star*** you must understand this. its location is very good, yes its is old fashioned, but everything works , beds very comfy and showers in rooms spot on.. frank , viveene and all staff are very professional and helpful.... regards noel g

Orla, Ireland

The staff was very friendly and helpful. Adored the owner who went above and beyond to make sure our visit was as pleasant as possible. We had a room with a bath that was charming and comfortable. Definitely would stay here again. Great room for the price in an upper west side neighborhood.

Mary, United States of America

Small room for a great price. Had no issues. People who complain are ignorant. Its a hostel not a 5 star hotel. Dont be ignorant and fight with staff!

눉Room did not look like photos. Place was very old, clean, but old and kind of patchworked together. Room was super tiny!
눇Cheap place to stay and lay your head for the night behind a locked door. For the person who wants nothing more than that.

“"An eye opener to real city life in New York" or, "Sleep here only if you are a heavy sleeper"”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Double Room with Private Bathroom
- • Stayed 5 nights
눉It was quite noisy at night. An AC had been inserted in the window so it wasn't well sealed so sound came in from outside. We could also hear the neighbors and TV from the next door room. It would be nice to have some counter space in the bathroom and some towel racks.
눇We liked the old building, brick on the interior, old fashioned elevator. The front desk people were friendly and answered our questions well on how to get places, where to eat, etc.

“Hostel basic comfort in excellent location”
- • Leisure trip
- • Family with young children
- • Double Room with Two Double Beds and Private Bathroom
- • Stayed 4 nights
눉Extremely noisy. Noise of toilet flush next door. And lots of noise in the morning coming from street below (lots of lorry seem to come there and stop with engine pumping). We were on 5th floor but noise echoed very badly. feeling to be sleeping with open windows. Also Venetian blind did not block sun light in the morning (damaged). and very very small bathroom. Just 1 tiny mirror in bathroom. Had to go in corridor to use large mirror. They should fix the blind and add a large mirror in the room at least. They charge $2 per luggage to store them once you've checked out. It.s not the money but the principle I do not like.
눇Excellent location, 2 mins from Tube station (express) and 3 stops from Time Square by Express red subway. Very clean. fresh towels every day. 10 mins walk from Central Park.

“Deffenetly not family friendly hotel, no parking space at all, worst beds.”
- • Family with young children
- • Double Room with Two Double Beds and Private Bathroom
- • Stayed 1 night
눉I did not understand why booking recommended this hotel for the family with 2 kids. Especially when they asked how old my kids are. The problem is that this hotel does not have the ramp for the strollers. So I was with 2 strollers and big luggage, and I have to to take it all on me ( literally) and bring through the steps Now I have a terrible back pain! We have only one day in NYC, but I had to do this with strollers couple times. I am disappointed with booking at this time. About the hotel: worst beds that we ever had, the sink was clogged, carpet was dirty and air condition made terrible noise and do not allow to sleep well Deffenetly not family friendly hotel, no parking space at all!
눇Good location, it took us 10 minutes to get to the Central Park, which is good.
