The hostel garden, the bar and the lounge are so cool! We can meet new peoples there and have fun. Beeing in that hostel is an experience a part. The internet works well. The bathroom is clean and organized. The locker is really big.

The best Hostel that I have stayed at for six nights and seven days! Trust me, I have been all over the world. Thank you God. It had everything there and in the neighboring community. Famous filming places, Historic buildings, religious places of worship (including the Malcolm X mosque), pool, playground, library, convenience stores, restaurants, medical clinic, police and fire stations for emergencies nearby; and supplies for people like me with disabilities in need of medicine (I fell while I was there). You name it! Everything. A comedy show hosted in the building with: maps, tour guides, eateries, tables; also knowledgeable and accommodating staff and personnel. A must visit for adults. A great bridge for me toward my 55th Birthday! Hooray! Respect was in the air as everyone was harmonious and peaceful toward and amongst each other. Please visit Central Park within walking distance from the Hostel. This is in the location where John Lennon (from the British Band "Beatles") and his wife Yoko Ono resided. Rest in Peace John Lennon. Rest in Peace Malcolm X. Not applicable right now.

It’s a whole experience staying here. I’ve stayed in many hostels, and this has been one of the better ones. The rooms are clean and decent, and the bathrooms are cleaned daily. They can get messy throughout the day because they’re shared, but that’s expected. The staff are friendly, and the cafeteria has a good selection of food and grab-and-go items. The location is also convenient, with supermarkets, restaurants, a barbershop, and fitness options nearby. What I liked most were the social activities and events, many of which are free, although some require advance registration. It made it easy to meet people and make friends, which was a big part of the experience for me. They also have proper lockers to leave your stuff upon check-out for a small fee. I think the elevator can be improved...it moves really slow. Other than that, it's been amazing!

The bed had a bed bug. It could have been more clean.

Very good

Friendly staff, open areas to sit in, clean kitchen Cleaning could have been more regular

Disappointing

Staff are friendly, provided me band-aids and stuff when I get a wound, checks me in when my flight delayed for a whole NINE HOURS. The breads are nice considering the price. Room smells funky, bathroom is like public bathroom so don't expect much comfortability there. Although there are curtains for beds so it's still nice to have so privacy.
