Very good accommodation for a short trip in New York
Pros: This is one of the places where you notice that someone thought about little details: there are sanitary products in the bathroom, shelving and storeroom in the „sleeping-box“. Free fruits, tea, milk etc the whole day. In general it’s pretty clean and cozy, even though everything is small. For 2 days it was perfect.
Cons: If you’re a tall person then this is probably not for you since the beds are pretty short. There’s no ceiling between the sleeping boxes so hear every sound (they offer earplugs though, so I didn’t have any trouble sleeping).

Pros: Safe, warm, and very friendly. I really liked the sincere and welcoming atmosphere. It made me feel comfortable and at home.
Cons: The only negative point was that the room was quite small, so the space to move around was limited. However, considering the price, it was reasonable and good value for money.

Highly recommended.
Pros: Great place to stay if you’re looking for a worth-recommending hostel in the center of Manhattan. The rooms are very small, but overall satisfactory — especially if you’re not planning to spend much time inside 🙂 The location is excellent, close to major train and subway intersections, which makes getting around the city very easy. The neighborhood feels safe and well connected. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The open kitchen is a great asset and helps save money on food if needed. You can find basic items like bread, jam, peanut butter, milk, cereals, cottage cheese, tea, coffee, fresh fruit, and even small freshly baked cakes available daily. Please note that the rooms are small and have open ceilings. The staff does their best to keep the apartment quiet, but of course, some noise is unavoidable. Highly recommended.
Cons: If you agree to the terms and conditions when you book, you will know that this is a hostel with some limitations, not a hotel. Then this place will definitely not disappoint.

It was ok for NYC pricing
Pros: The location was perfect, 2 blocks away from the Penn Station which had many subway routes and NJ train (I was going to Newark airport, which was very convenient). There was some food included (yogurt, tea, fruit) I didn't try it, only had a banana one morning but it wasn't that great though. I'm a heavy sleeper which for this type of accommodation helps a lot, I didn't have any issue having a good sleep or waking up middle of the night. Showers had hot water and every night they turn on a heater inside the restroom which helps a lot with the freezing cold outside. They provide towels so that was appreciated. As a solo traveller it is imperative to stay at a safe and well located place, so this was the right spot, going and coming back at late night walking I never felt unsafe or at risk at any point, nor inside the hostel either.
Cons: The cubicle is indeed as many here mentioned, TINY, I traveled alone, and I'm petite 5' 1\

Good value and great location in central New York
Pros: Great location close to Penn Station and waking distance from everything. It is nice to have your own space although, as other have said, it is small and can be noisy. Overall, I thought it was good value for central New York
Cons: It can be a bit noisy because of the lack of proper ceilings but this is explained in the description and the staff do a good job of trying to manage snoring etc.

Pros: The location is excellent, you can walk everywhere. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. Throughout the day you can enjoy complimentary fruit, coffee, tea, and some snacks. There are also USB outlets available, which is very useful for travelers.
Cons: Since the ceiling is open, you can hear other guests very clearly. It’s uncomfortable to sleep if someone nearby is snoring or talking on the phone in the next room.
