“ WOW I was sooo impressed!!! This is one of the nicest AND cheapest hostels I have stayed at. Newly renovated (=fresh) and it was awesome in every way. The only negative was that there wasn't a mirror in the room, just in the bathrooms. ”

“ This hostel is cool. The location isnt the best. The hostel is more in Harlem. The staff were very helpful even though it was very busy when I arrived. The showers were hot and the rooms were roomy which was cool. No real complaints as such ”

“ Very good hostel. Rooms are great but we can't use the all new kitchen. The breakfast is nice but not very well managed, always some lacks after 9am. Located between two subway stations, very easy to reach the centre in about 20min. ”
