Liked: Location was excellent - right in the heart of Williamsburg and about 3 min walk from the subway and river taxi. Felt more like a shared house than a hostel.
Disliked: If I had to say something here I'd say that it could do with more literature on tourist options that you can take away - there was lots on the walls, but you couldn't take any of it with you.

Liked: This is a great hostel... It's like having your own apartment while you are traveling. You do not feel like an outsider or a "tourist". On the contrary, you get a vibe of the "real NY" and how people live on a daily basis, outside Times Square. It's less than 5 mts away from the subway, and it's really close to the main street, which is overcrowded with restaurants, bars, cafes, and other fun stuff. The room was OK for the value, the beds were comfortable (or maybe we were just exhausted), and the facility was very clean. The outside area was awesome and it had a great view to the city. Overall, I'd highly recommend this place and the owner is such a sweetheart! He took the time to explain us everything about the hostel and gave us really useful tips.
Disliked: There are only two bathrooms, so unless you wake up before 8.30 a.m., be prepared to wait to hustle your way into the shower.

Liked: This place was just the best. Definitely coming back here if I go back to NYC. Calm place to rest after a busy day/night, good location too. Young is supernice and helpful, place is clean with a good atmosphere.

Liked: Great place to stay - especially for solo female travellers. Small size makes it very easy to meet people. Very clean, safe and great location. Free internet too! I have been travelling for 7 months and is one of the nicest hostels I have stayed in by far. The owner is very helpful and friendly. Highly recommend it.
Disliked: Only the curtains in the dorms - let a lot of light in during the mornings but easily fixed with an eye mask.

21 August 2009 Zandra would recommend this property
Liked: What I liked about the hostel:The hostel was in a very cool and hip location and very convenient to Manhattan. The owner/manager was extremely nice and helpful. The hostel itself was charming. The accommodations were clean, secure, safe, nicely decorated and comfortable. It had a great modern kitchen area, computers with free internet service and a large wooden deck with a terrific view of the Manhattan skyline. It was a little more expensive than the normal price for a hostel, but definitely worth the extra money.
