01 December 2009	Gregoire Denis They made a mistake when they use my debit card to pay the night. When they remarked that they just did not apologize and asked me to pay another time... without shoing any evidence of their mistake. Finally the guy came to knock to my bedroom at midnight to yell on me to pay (while I had the receipt that I paid...) I wish anyone will go there after reading this post...	40%

13 October 2009	felicitas sanchez Hey, the location is excellent and its cheap (though be careful about what you have to add up in taxes, it´s pretty high!). Apart from that it´s pretty ugly, and the beds are really bad. I recommend it for people on a budget and who just need a place to crash for a night or two.	60%

10 October 2009	Christian Marx not the cleanest place, but for the price a really good offer. location is great (just one block from central park)	55%

28 September 2009	Customer review Location. I think the doors should be different - they make too much noise when they close, which makes it difficult to get a good night's rest.	70%

08 September 2009	Customer review Nothing. When we arrived at the hostel we were told that they had not received our booking and there was nothing they could do for us. This had also happened to many more people waiting in reception. Eventually, after being very rude, unhelpful and obnoxious, he called another hostel, which we stayed at called WestSide Inn. This was fairly standard hostel. It's cheap and everything about it is cheap...but I guess you get what you pay for.	25%

06 September 2009	Customer review the only thing i liked about this hostel is its location. close to subways and central park that's all.. other than that i think the receptionists were terrible. not helpful AT ALL! especially that Omar seems to be a nice guy, until you turn him down to go on a date. they are weird and not helpful. from the first day, wifi did not work for me and when i asked if they knew what the problem could be, the receptionist showed me his phone and said i am connected. did not care at all.. it was one of the worst experiences of my life. thank god it wasn't my first time in new york that i only used this filthy hostel for sleeping. unless you are willing to live in an extremely dirty and unfriendly environment, do not go there. period.	37%
