It was fine. Stop complaining! Check the room out before you sign on to make sure you can deal. Otherwise, a good spot for a cheap price. more

This is the third time that I stayed at this hostel. I have traveled a lot and have slept in some pretty rough conditions and I am not usually that fussy when it comes to standards of cleanliness and hospitality, especially in bargain accommodation like this. The first two times I was there, it was not exactly what I would... more

Booked for 10 nights. Walked into the 'room' and five minutes later I was back down at the lobby getting a refund. Bed wasn't big enough to lie completely straight on-which is a problem when the bed spans the length of the room!! And to add to that, I noticed a blood stain on the sheet. Didn't even want to... more

My partner & I stayed here for 1 night as we were on a budget & knew the area because of CBGB's but . . . What a Nightmare. We've stayed in YHA & hostels all over the world but this place is shocking. Rooms aren't even large enough for you plus one rucksack and 2 people can't fit unless... more

This was my first trip to NYC. I was there for an event at NYU. There was a really sweet old guy working at the desk when I checked in who encouraged me to take advantage of all the extras offered at the hostel whenever I came by. The lobby is friendly- It has a computer for guest use, as... more

This place was awful. I'm 22, well-traveled, I live in DC, I'm not stupid..I got in at 1AM, closed and LOCKED my tiny door, went to sleep, woke up at 7, saw that my $200 in cash had been stolen. Yeah, I know I shouldn't carry that much cash and I never have more than 20 on me but this... more

I have stayed in hostels of variable quality all over the world and this was one of the worst. It was freezing, had a broken light and the bed was tiny and uncomfortable. I could hardly get myself and my luggage into the tiny space. After some deliberation I decided to stay somewhere else and I was assured by the... more

I've stayed in hostels all over the world and have been in some pretty sketchy accommodation but this place beats them all - and that's saying something. The price attracted me to book it but when we arrived I realized I'd made a BIG mistake in not paying more and getting more. Our choice between two of the 'rooms' was... more

Ever stayed in a hostel? If the answer is yes, you'll be fine. New York's version of the Hans Brinker (AMS) claims no frills and the cheapest bed around. After almost one month at the White House, I had approximately zero bedbug bites, no thefts and can confirm their assertions. If this is your first trip from where ever your... more
