*8.7* United Nations New York: only 6 minutes away! (1,500 feet by foot)

*9.0* Chrysler Building: only 6 minutes away! (1,550 feet by foot)

51st Street Lexington Avenue Line: only 6 minutes away! (1,400 feet by foot)

The fact that the restrooms were just for one person.

Florencia, Argentina

It’s a couple streets away from all the foot traffic, I liked the gym but too spread out,

Akram, Australia

My room was extremely clean and the Hostel was perfectly quiet. Although the temperature outside was well below freezing, my room was comfortably warm to the point where I forgot about the weather forecast. The staff is welcoming, friendly, courteous and helpful.

David, United States of America

In general I like the stay. Location is very good. There is fridge in my room. Good light in the room.

Artur, United States of America

It's the Y. Bunk beds, shared bath. The pool is a plus. Good value for money between Xmas and New Year's. It's NYC, so if all you'll be doing is sleeping there, it's as good as a hotel. Great location near Grand Central and the UN building.

Michael, Canada

The property was clean and staff was wonderful, very friendly.

Marco, United States of America

Great gym available to all guests and safe luggage storage.

Luigi, United States of America

Location is amazing and the room though small was clean. The bathroom was clean as well. For New York it was a good value for the money.

sport facilities were good, expecially the swimming pool.

My bedrooms view was the toilet, which people keep turning the light on and off and slamming the door, weird noises in the building at night, getting stopped every time I wanted to go up to my room, the bathroom next to 405 didn’t get hand soap refilled for the whole time I was here which was 10 nights soo I would have to go to the next one just to wash my hands, a couple of the showers on level 4 have broken or loose shower heads that can’t stay in position keeps dropping which ruined a good shower having to remember which one was a mission every day, gym was too spread out annoying to walk up stairs for weights and then back down even waiting for elevator is annoying when your working out no music in cardio room. Seeing as I was one person the staff at the desk didn’t care that I had a double bunk bed and when I asked to swap for a double I was cut off with a hard no, even tho I was spending 10 nights and prior I booked 4 nights on New Years. The extra 10$ per day made my booking and extra 140$ over the 2 weeks which I was not happy with, price ended up the same as booking closer to Times Square or at a higher quality hotel

“My stay at the Vanderbilt was so phenomenal that I will return very, very soon.”

- • Standard Single Room with Shared Bathroom

My only complaint was the television channel offerings. The hostel is equipped with flatscreen monitors, and the televisions work extremely well. However, one has to use trial and error to determine which networks are available for guests. Still, I would not allow this minor "complaint" to deter me from returning to such a wonderful establishment.

Room was really small but clean. Heating unit sometimes makes weird loud sounds but we were so tired we did not care about that. I found only one toilet for whole floor but it wasn't problem asi it was almost always free and I was not looking for any other toilets so I'm not sure if there was more of them. Accommodation was as we expected.

The room is not clean. I stayed in this hostel for a night, and then, I got lots of skin rash. There are three bathrooms for men in 6th floor, but one is without water and another one is without hot water. The window in the room could not isolate noisy from street and I heard noisy from street all night. What's worst, the heater or gas pipe kept making noisy sound all the night.
