I stayed here for 3 nights in March for a great price. All staff were really approachable and were more than happy to answer any questions we had and make recommendations. Our check-in took less than 5 minutes and we were directed to our dorm and told about the free bbq they had on. The place seemed really clean and... More

Cool neighbourhood (look beyond the surface and you'll see what I mean), helpful staff (just ask - otherwise they just leave you to your own devices) and good links into Manhattan/other bits of Brooklyn. You'll take no more than 35mins to reach the main sights and it's easy to get to frm JFK by subway too. I really enjoyed my... More

A very nice place to stay with good facilities and spacious rooms and common areas and nice staff. Don't be put off by the look of the area when you first arrive; it's very warehouse-ey and looks kinda dingy, but it's all tucked away behind that facade, so the area is kinda funky in this way. In the dorm itself,... More

I enjoyed my stay at the NY Loft Hostel and would definitely recommend it to others. Thoughts: Location - My favourite thing about this hostel is its location. East Williamsburg is a really hip(ster) area, so there is plenty to see and do around the neighbourhood. Roberta's (awesome pizza place) is just around the corner, as are many other restaurants,...

yes the location is quite, but the people who stay there generally are noisy, someone came over to receptionist around 10PM complaining about a guy who was drunk at the garden and made a lot of noise, but nothing can be done about it. the bath room was dirty, hot water runs out if you use it after everyone else....

This facility is very clean and several amenities have been recently added (like free breakfast and better access to pay-for-access computers). The beds are less sturdy than they used to be, since there are no longer any bunk beds. Small towels and thin sheets are provided, but you can rent more towels and request extra free blankets if you need... More

A great hostel but we had a frustrating stay. When I called to book I specifically asked if the twin private room had a double bunk or single and was told that all the bunks had a double on the bottom. I arrived exhausted after a fulls days travel to find a pokey creakey bunk in a room right next... More

My expectations were exceeded at my stay in The New York Loft Hostel. It was very well kept and I always saw staff walking around the hostel making sure everything was clean. They had plenty of options for breakfast (fruits, cereal, juice, milk etc.) and the kitchen/common area is a very nice, open space that I often found myself gravitate... More

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the NY loft hostel. It makes you travel slightly off the beaten track and see a part of New York that you wouldn't probably visit otherwise. The hostel is clean, friendly and the breakfasts and bbqs are very generous, good quality and free. My highlight was visiting the vintage clothes caravan shop, which arrives... More
