The air conditioner was not working properly in my assigned room and it was very warm and stuffy in it. However, they did offer me a new room, and it ended up being a nicer room.

There was no air conditioning in the room. Toilets are really tiny and not very clean. Mattress feels like plastic and the bed is very squeaky!

The cafe offered a great range at reasonable prices, and was open late. Staff were helpful, and had arranged entertainment options every evening. Location was convenient to the subway, and there was a good range of eateries and other shops nearby. Area was noisy, but seemed safe. The bed could have been more comfortable, and the price was high for a bunk in a large dorm, but hey, it's New York City.

Good comfortable hostel well located
This is a good hostel, with the 8-share room having everything needed - individual padlockable cupboard, power and light at the bed, solid bunk construction and a privacy curtain. On-site café was a good feature and the guest kitchen looked clean and well-equipped. On the lower side, there was just a single TV in the common area (not enough for such a big hostel) and just a single desktop computer for paid use. The lowest mark is given to the slow elevator that is shared with the service staff and their big linen carts. Location was really good - close to transport, shops, food, but not in the part of NYC that doesn’t sleep.
