it was a very nice stay and good conditions for an hostel!! the localisation is very good! The only thing that i didn't like was that the room are kind of small and we can hear the noise outside, but this hostel is worth it!

I stayed for a week at the hostel. The location is perfect for getting to the subway and from there all over manhatten. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The pizza night is good too. I would stay there again!

Not even 5mins from Penn Station&Subway and 10min from Empire State Building. The rooms are small, but clean and comfortable, it's really good to have a bathroom en-suite (we were in a 4 bed female dorm), quality/price unbeatable! And breakfast is included. Would go back there and recommend it.

The location was great and I met some fun people but I thought the common room was more of a kitchen-type than a lounge type and not the best to meet people, relax and interact ! But overall a good hostel !

Mahatten Inn hostel has good location. It is close to Penn station if you taking amtrak. The room is clean and toilet is better then I expected. Also they provide breakfast which help save abit in expense. Staff may look unfriendly but still will help you if you have question. Please note they...

For those who cant check in on the day you booked for the room, they will still charge you the full amount and not the deposit even if it is 1 day. This is one of the hostel that don't allow customer's unforseen timing.

Everything was ok, except the fact that we booked a 4-bedroom and in the middle of the night there were two more people put in our room, so that we were 6 in the room. It would have been nice to be informed about this at least.

We had a good stay but we heard about some guest during our stay that had problems with both bedbugs and that they had to change rooms three times in four nights.

We stayed in a 4 bed dorm. Dorm felt very secure. No lockers in rooms though. Lockers downstairs (cost $5 US a day). Free breakfast was great! (all you could eat - bagels, muffins, fruit, OJ, coffee etc). Location was fantastic - 10 mins walk from the action of Times Square!

Very Good for the price but the room was a little small. But the location - just two minutes to the Madison Square Garden by walking. And if your flight is in the evening you can lock your luggage in a special cabinet. I would go there again.
