  It has everything you need for a reasonable price comparing to the average in NY, subway transportation in NY in 24 Hours so you don have to be worried about location that as there is a station really close to the hostel.

  The location and the mattress

• Megan from Australia (9/10)

  Great common areas and the beds were super comfortable

• Yong from Taiwan (9/10)

  This hostel sets the benchmark for hostel living. Where do I start? I like that the room (6-bed dorm) had ample spacing between the bunk beds, so it wasn’t too crowded. The lockers provided had enough space for a luggage and a large backpack, but you would need to bring your own lock. The beds are relatively comfortable but nothing worth aweing over. The only complaint about my room is that there wasn’t much space to hang your clothes or personal belongings, so your coats and jackets need to be stashed away in your locker/bag when not in use. The bathrooms are abundant and showers are large, with ample hot water for showers. I especially like the amount of activities provided by the hostel, including walking tours, comedy nights, hangouts, all of which you can meet people from all corners of the world! The location is really just a stone’s throw away from the 103th subway station, which has a relatively high frequency of trains even at night. I like the convenience of the 1 Train which gets you into downtown Manhattan quickly and directly. There are also several nice cafes and bagel shops near the hostel due to its proximity to Columbia University. I think this is a wonderful place to stay if you’re visiting New York!

• Rebecca from United States (8/10)
