Hostels in New York State, United States

This is a really large hostel with plenty of free space. You'll find people studying, working, and the kitchen feels like a hotel's professional kitchen – nowhere feels cramped. There's also a bar on-site. They have daily free events, trekking, and more, so even if you're a solo traveler visiting New York for the first time, you're sure to have a good time. (I used to live here, so I don't need the events myself). It's a good idea to bring a padlock for the locker. In America, you always need to bring your own padlock for sports clubs and pretty much everywhere else. The lockers are well-designed, with an outlet inside and a light that automatically turns on when you open the door, which is very convenient. The front desk is staffed 24/7 with two or three people.

This is very much a classic, old-fashioned American motel, but it is not the kind of place you need to be overly worried about. The sheets and towels are changed, and small packets of all-in-one shampoo are provided. The bathroom has a bathtub and shower with a shower curtain. There can occasionally be a slight odor, which is probably the main downside. The hair dryer is an old-style black unit mounted on the wall, and it may remind you of the kinds of dryers that used to be common in motels years ago. The room includes a refrigerator, microwave, and television. Wi-Fi is available and generally convenient, although it sometimes disconnects, which is part of the motel’s charm. Cell phone reception is also somewhat weak, but I was still able to get a signal. During my stay, AT&T and Verizon were not particularly strong, while T-Mobile seemed to work better. All of the buildings are single-story, and the parking lot is spacious, so finding a place to park should not be a problem. There also appears to be a Chinese restaurant attached to the reception area, although I never saw it open during my stay. Staff are usually available at the front desk from around 9:00 a.m. until about 11:00 p.m. For arrivals outside those hours, you can call in advance. There is a key lockbox outside, and you can open it using a passcode, so late-night check-in is still easy and convenient. This is not a luxurious property, but it is a practical and reasonably comfortable motel, especially for travelers arriving by car and watching baseball games in Allstar village.

The hotel's biggest advantage is its excellent location, right next to Central Park, within walking distance to the subway and Columbus Circle, making travel incredibly convenient. The rooms are basically clean, with simple, sufficient facilities, suitable for budget-conscious travelers. However, the soundproofing is a major issue: you can hear everything from the adjacent rooms, and I was frequently woken up at night by loud talking and slamming doors, making it almost impossible to get proper rest. I reported this to the front desk multiple times during my stay, but the problem never improved. I also filed a complaint through the booking platform, but received no response or follow-up whatsoever – customer service was virtually non-existent. The common areas and bathroom facilities are a bit old, and the cleanliness in some areas was just average. Overall, it's only suitable for backpackers who prioritize location over sleep quality. Travelers who value quietness and good service should definitely look elsewhere.

The room was clean and tidy, with plenty of natural light and a simple, comfortable layout. The bedding was soft, and the bathroom was dry and odor-free, with all the necessary amenities that were easy to use. The location was quiet, and the soundproofing was decent, so my rest wasn't disturbed. Service was prompt, and it offered good value for money. The only minor drawback was that the space was a bit compact, and some details could be further optimized. Overall, my stay was comfortable, and the location was convenient for getting around. I'd recommend it.

I needed a place for an overnite stay, no time to enjoy the pool unfortunately, as I was using Moonlite to break up a long drive from Canada... My room was clean, bed was comfortable, although I would have personally preferred softer pillows, just the way I sleep. Microwave and fridge are always welcome, wish there had been a coffee maker as well, but I realize that some places forgo that convenience because they 'disappear'. Dunkin' Donuts is a short drive away, so not a problem. It's an older building, but the owners have made some upgrades, light switches, ceiling tiles, overhead lighs, and an easy to use modern 'deadbolt' that prevents unwanted access... Most appreciated was the help I received from Mary, whose family owns the place... I had a different reservation that needed to be changed (several weeks in advance) and the booking agency, Agoda, was making it difficult. Mary went above and beyond to assist me in cancelling the original, so I re-booked for the different date. Convenient, quiet location (I had a back corner room, and even with the window open, didn't notice much noise at all, despite the nearby highway. They deserve a better rating, when you need a place to stay, give them a try (just avoid Agoda!!)

The house has a large aftertaste, poor health, general sound insulation, no breakfast, coffee, convenient transportation, acceptable

This is a no friils, basic motel. If you're trying to save money on your lodging while traveling to New York City & surrounding areas, this is a great place to stay to save money. The motel is close to various local amenities as well as the Metro North train station. Taking the train will bring you to Grand Central Station in heart of NYC - Manhattan, in 30 minutes. I found the room, bed, linens and the bathroom to all be clean. The room had a mini fridge, microwave, mini drip style coffee maker, TV and a small desk. The bathroom had clean towels, soap, shampoo and conditioner. Though it was a bit cramped. The stand-up shower was great with good water pressure and plentiful hot water. There is parking in front of each room and it was fairly quiet. Again, this is a budget motel. So if you're not looking for anything fancy, I would recommend this place. Can't beat the price for being so close to NYC.

I thought it was a really relaxing place. Since June 5th, I have stayed several times in a row. I stayed for almost a month, but it is very convenient because there are restaurants, a market, and a convenience store nearby. Good location. After all, it's safe and secure, and it feels like a little sure house with a round on each floor. I want to use it again. The staff were all very kind. The front door is also safe with a security door. I was relieved with a security door that could not be easily invaded from the outside.

The room was very comfortable and the bed was the most comfortable during the beauty period. The facilities in the bathroom are a bit old, but the function is intact. The boss was very enthusiastic and gave detailed play suggestions. The location is close to the waterfall and the price is very high.

I have to say the location was perfect I was 5 mins from the venue. But walking in it looked great clean and no issues but getting to our floor walls were dirty they had towels tucked in maintenance door looked sketchy. When I opened my door to my room it was small but clean. Would have liked a closet or whatever to put clothes in I was there for a wedding but we made it work. I don’t say stuff to scare ppl but if you just looking for a place to rest your head and get going this is your place. Even though it seemed a bit crazy in halls. I slept I got up and had an amazing time at the wedding. Also within walking distance is Mc Ds, Wendy’s, Dunkin’s with parking in the lot. So it had its pros and cons but for the money I paid location and food. It was good!
