I booked to stay here in Dec 2010, but cancelled due to the snow and being unable to fly into NY. I was already in America and rang to cancel my booking with more than 24 hours notice. Their cancellation policy states you will be charged 1 nights stay if you cancel with less notice. I confirmed with the person... More

It´s a pretty nice hostel I think. The staff is friendly and they help you, if you have a problem or any questions. The rooms were big enough, so you are not sleeping like a sardine ;-), but unfortunatly they don´t have lockers. The location is really good I think, you have the subway 2 min nearby and in 12...
