great breakfast of croissants and muffins to start the day with, the bed linen was changed every other day, but the only thing is they need more bathrooms!! enjoyed my stay very much.

The staff is so friendly and helpful and the breakfast is awesome. But it's a bit far from the city.

Stayed there for 5 nights in a 6-bed private ensuite. Strongly recommend the private room with bathroom, as the shared bathrooms for the rest of the rooms might be crowded in the morning (in the girl dormns, the waiting time before the breakfast took sometimes almost 45 minutes). The breakfast was ok (big muffins, toasts w jelly/creamcheese/peanut butter, croissants, coffee, tea, milk, juice), though served only between 9am-10am, so when you need/want to leave early, you'll stay without the breakfast. The kitchen might also be crowded during the breakfast, so it might happen that you won't have the place to sit down. The hostel is new and clean, the rooms were cleaned every second day, the blankets were also changed every second day - a big plus). The surrounding is quite safe, though completely black, sometimes I felt a little bit scared coming late in the night. Overall very good value for less money. Would stay there again.

Quite a safe place, there's the M1 Bus that leaves you right in the corner... though it seems they have trouble with the booking system, people staying in the wrong room and on matresses... nice breakfast !

Everything's pretty ok, just kind of noisy at night. But for the price there's nothing to complaine about.

The neighborhood is no problem, but the lack of bathrooms is definitely a drawback. Nevertheless a very comfortable stay at all!

It is not bad, but this hostel is situated in Harlem, and this is dangerous district. if you wanna be in safe you should to find more safe place than this. i stayed there because i did not have any choise. you can stay in this hostel, but don't walk around while is dark.

This Hostel was amazing. The staff were incredibly friendly and your bed was made every morning as well as being given a clean towel every second day. There is a kitchen on each floor and it is very close to two subway lines. Overall an excellent hostel, great value for money
