Ny Hostel 99

At first I was concerned about the neighborhood after I booked the hostel. But seriously it was totally fine! I was with another girl and we never had any problems. You’ll have a guy or two yell something at you, but if you don’t dress like a whore you’re totally fine. Coming home at 2:30 on a Saturday night I had no issues at all. But it is far away and a few times we would have liked to go back to the hostel to drop things off etc. but didn’t want to take the 20 – 25 min it takes to commute.
The hostel is very clean and the staff is über friendly. They let us check in early and leave our luggage in the lobby for a few hours after we checked out. The whole building is updated and really nice. Although the walls are REALLY thin and the floorboards above our room creaked REALLY bad. And the beds were really uncomfortable. Breakfast is ok, but it’s free so who cares? We weren’t able to connect to the internet, but we didn’t ask for help. The security is nice. You have to ring a doorbell to enter so they screen people coming in.
Overall, I’d recommend the hostel. You’re paying for what you get but it’s clean and the staff are really nice.

This hostel was ok, I found it clean and it seemed new when I had stayed there. The location of the hostel is not ideal for travellers who want to see NY, I chose this as it was cheap but wish I paid extra and had a better location. The kitchen was small.
Me and my two friends had to come home early each night as it was a fair walk from the metro station and seemed a place that you could get robbed whilst walking the streets.
