There is no elevator, the staff is unfriendly, the beds are very uncomfortable. I do not recommend staying here. For the price, there are better hostels in New York, such as Hi, New York, which is a few blocks away.

This an easy 5/5 for its category. A no frills, budget friendly option, with friendly and helpful staff. It was a short stay and I didn’t need much. The staff made it easy from checking my bags to get me set up at check-in. I was fortunate to have respectful roommates. The pod was big enough to sit up straight inside which was a relief.

POD itself that I slept in was great. However room itself was unclean and quite a small space if you have a large suitcase. Thin pillows and mattress but overall a good place if you just want somewhere cheap to rest your head.

If you don't mind no lift this is a fabulous hostel. The pods are great.
The staff give the joint personality and although the area is lacking shops the cafe is serving some great beverages and continental breakfast.
Its just by Central Park, so tempting to walk it.

Inside the facility is too complex to find rooms, kitchen etc and they supposedly giving free breakfast which is only coffee and bagel without any condiments. Location is good, it's next to Central Park.
