  • Barbara from United States (9/10)

    location to Subway, the ease to get in and out the building. How nice the staff was and even the other visitors were cozy to walk around safely. Rooms were cozier than expected but perfect for my quick stay in the city.

  • Haathwalathakur from India (9/10)

    – Location: Fantastic, with easy subway access to major attractions. Staying here instead of Manhattan offers a quieter, safer experience with a unique NYC vibe. – Private Bathroom in Dorms: A big plus! Hot showers had great pressure, and the room stayed cozy even on chilly nights. -Type-C Charging Points: A big plus! As an international traveler, having Type-C USB ports, even at the bed socket, made charging hassle-free without needing a power converter—super convenient! – Bar/Café: Affordable options open until 11 pm—very convenient. – Workspaces: Chill seating areas with charging points, ideal for working and socializing. – Thoughtful Extras: Free welcome coffee and drink added a warm touch. – No Deposit Hassle: No upfront deposit, just card details, which was budget-friendly.

    Great location, comfortable bed

  • Sharon from United Kingdom (7/10)

    Location was great – only a few minutes walk from the subway station which takes you directly into Manhattan, close to take-away pizza and many shops. Good facilities including free Wi-Fi and nice lounge area to relax, charge devices and eat in. Kitchen facilities were also good. Bed very comfortable. Bar downstairs and roof area were both very nice.
