Bedroom was warm. There was no ac? However the hallways did have Ac? Some Ac? Good ac! I enjoyed the expansive, updated, well managed property. It is a friendly accommodating place excellent for travel. Personal Highlights; Outdoor seating Space, Full Borderline commercial kitchen with refrigerators for short term food storage. Theater room, med to long term lockers, game room, healthy bookshelf, laundry on 2nd floor *tap to pay*, good bathroom setting, good shower pressure, comfy bunks with a phone/device charging USB at head height. Locker space in bedroom (bring or rent a lock) This hostel is great because of the multi-post event and local activity board to keep you out and about if you choose to experience new NouNs (persons, places, or things) And lastly my favorite was the cafe inside of the hostel. Aka the pleasant breakfast smell factory. Equipped with hot breakfast fare, coffee, and delightful baked goods. Offered at lower than New York City prices. How nice. All included within a budget friendly price point for a nights stay.

전철역에서 가까움. 수건 줌. 정수기 있음. 에어컨 빵빵해서 오히려 추움. 공용 샤워실 3개 화장실 4개가 같은 공간에 있는데 불편함. 그래도 가격대비 괜찮음. Close to the tube station. Towel provided. Not so comfy with the limited bathrooms.

It's perfect for folks traveling who want easy access to those touristy spots (Times Sq, Chambers St, Broadway, etc.) without having to stay in it. It's an easy 10-15 minute subway ride to almost everything, and less than a two minute walk to the subway. Also a nice walkable distance to the upper-west side of Central Park.
