Description of The Jane
Facing the Hudson River in the West Village, the Jane hotel is a brand-new 'upscale hostel' for the discerning traveler. With compact singles going for $99 and a swanky scene, this hotel is a unique choice with history to boot. From 1908 to the 1940s, what is now the Jane served as hotel for sailors, The American Seaman's Friend Society Sailors' Home and Institute. The building's nautical past is preserved today: the 'cabin rooms' are as compact as a sailor's quarters, though thankfully they sport some modern touches like an iPod dock, flat-screen TV, and A/C. Larger 'captain cabins,' featuring views of the Hudson, will be available in 2009. Beds sleep one and are attractive, if rather narrow, with storage space below and 'train racks' above for additional storage. The effect is both charmingly old-fashioned and chic. All rooms have a phone, alarm clock, free wi-fi Internet access, and even a bathrobe and slippers. Guests share bathroom facilities (two showers, two toilets) with the entire floor; there are plans to install a second bathroom on each floor in the upcoming months. With great rates, cozy rooms, a fabulous location, and what promises to be a fun combination of vintage furniture and hip amenities, this hotel provides a good deal for the adventurous traveler on a budget.

“ The best shower ever of any hostel I've been too ! Was a pleasure. Although the room is small, it's greatly organized and nothing's missing. Lot's of space to store stuff and luggage. The bed s also a comfortable couch for reading or whatever. Staff's great. Nice bar (a bit expensive though).... ”

“ I enjoyed my stay at the Jane. Complimentary water in a cool bottle, lovely funny staff and comfy beds. It's under construction at the moment - so maybe wait until they've got the cafe/bar going and elevator working before you book in. Just be aware though, that the rooms are REALLY that small. ”

“ I really much liked this place. Of course the rooms are small, but this was the special and nice part of it. The shared bathrooms are really clean. So I only can recommend this place whenever you are staying in NYC. ”

“ A salty sailors' home. Go running along the Hudson before immersing yourself in meatpacking district's nightlife. To be recommended! ”
