    It is a dorm style property, location is great in Manhattan, but inner condition is just average. I left my bath towel at public bathroom and it was missing overnight. So be mindful of personal belongings.

    This is a YMCA so it's not fair to expect the Waldorf for the prices they charge. For the money, it's hard to beat if you're looking for budget accomodation in Midtown; fantastic location a block from Lincoln Center and some of the rooms even have views of Central Park. Bathrooms are mostly shared and mine had hot water problems but staff were great.

    Desk staff great. Bed and pillow bad. Bathroom fair—several toilet doors did not latch. The sink area was dirty and the floor wet all the time. One tiny towel, no washcloth.

    I was charged additional $20 at arrival which was not mentioned any where online while booking. Bathrooms are shared and are in terrible condition and due renovation. They charge additional for even keeping your luggage after checkout.

    It’s expensive and uncomfortable. Beds are squeaky, the room really small and the staff not always helpful.

    Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
    I’ve been visiting NYC on a regular basis since the late 90’s, and I had been to YMCA before, but this was the dirtiest room I have ever been to. Extremely dirty! When I tried to walk around the room, my flip flops would stay behind, because it was as if there were glue in the carpet, which was extremely dirty, sticky, and with hair all over the place. Awful! They haven’t cleaned that room for ages, and I doubt they have changed the sheets. The floor in the Common bath was wet all the time, like a pond. Dirty sink and hair all over the place. Do not recommend!

    We were two guests and got two towels the first day. The second day they did not change them. I requested a change at the front desk and was promised that the housekeeper will put them in my room, but nothing has happened. I asked again and again and got only promises, but no towels. The last day of my stay I had to go to the front desk and argue with an operator to finally get two towels. The housekeeper did not do our room during our 3 days-stay.

    A really bad place and very bad experience.
    The place is so not clean. The floor is sticky and the bathrooms are horrible. Check-in is at 3 pm and they charge $4 for storing luggage before check-in. Luggage is stored until 7 pm only. The staff is so unfriendly. I am glad I stayed for only 1 night.
