14 October 2009	jacob hvidtfeldt The good and lively atmosphere, and the very friendly staff!	90%

18 August 2009	Simon Lange The hostel has some great facilities as there are a pool and a gym you can use for free. You also have free internet connection, but the computer room is not open at any time. The personnel is very friendly and the rooms are great. In a couple of weeks there should be digital TV in every room. But keep in mind the neighborhhod is not the safest and it takes up to 60 minutes to get to Midtown by subway. The good things is that your stay will help the YMCA to take care of the Brooklyn kids in need.	70%

02 July 2008	reimond vandecasteele control and safety ! a bad thing for disabled people is, there is no elevator. the basic-elements for a back-packer are good. and you have seen an amazing city for a low price!!	70%

01 May 2008	Jeroen Bos Friendly staff, clean, lots of facilities. It is however a bit far from manhatten, so if you want to explore the city it takes some time to get there. On the other hand it is worth to see "normal life" instead of the rush and succes driven island of manhatten.	72%

08 November 2007	JAYA HORAN The staff were EXCELLENT and although you have to travel into the city by Subway - the area has a great buzz and community spirit. If you're not scared of shared bathrooms (like school PE bathrooms!) and basic bedroom facilities, this is a great place to stay. The facilities are a bonus to the very cheap price. The nearest Subway takes you straight into Manhattan and is only 3 blocks from the YMCA.	90%
