Nice place
The reception was simply amazing. The owner of the hostel is welcoming and caring. I felt at home, after talking about my insecurities from my first solo trip. I can only recommend this hostel because it is incredible.
The hostel is located right in front of central park, and next to the metro, a very nice location! We had an extremely warm welcome and they were very accommodating for the luggage deposit, but also to advise us of places to visit. The common areas are very good and cozy, and the kitchen is very well equipped. Cleaning is done every day, and the bathrooms are very clean. Go there if you like hostels, you will be very well off!

I liked being on a girls only floor, it made me feel very comfortae and secure. I loved the location of the property. I loved the price of a nights stay at this hostel. Very reasonable price and a good stay for the price.

The location in Manhattan and the price! Very friendly staff. You can come back at anytime thanks to key you got at check-in ($10 deposit).
Near the underground station at 86th st and a lovely neighbourhood + own key.
Location.
That it was small and nice and the common room in the cellar was very nice furnished.
I love the location and felt safe. The neighborhood is amazing and soo close to the subway.
The staff is so friendly! It was awesome, you could always ask them and they were always in a good mood! We also loved that there was a kitchen and a huge chill out room with even a TV. And that you can't bring Big luggage into the rooms is not a big deal, they give you bags to bring the important stuff upstairs and take care of your luggage. I really liked that.
Tuesday is Pizza and Games night, which was fun and enjoyable and a good way to meet other travellers.
friendly staff, familiar
