Liked: The rooms are quite large. Location is good.

Disliked: There are no lockers in the room. I had to sleep on my laptop to protect it. We shared the same room 12 people. There was only one bathroom. Staff was super rude. It is too expensive for what it deserves.

20 September 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: the staff is helpful

Disliked: first night we had to freeze in our room and after a room change we boiled. under the windows there is only a plastic cover next to ac which definately is a nobrainer during the winter. eight ave is right next to the hostel and therefore the traffic will definately wake you up in the morning. earplugs are a necessity in this hostel. i would definately avoid this hostel if New York would be my only stop and put some extra money on accomondation and get a better room for relaxation. for a backpacker or a budget traveller chelsea is great value. NYC isnt cheap and subway is just a few blocks away so if youre planning to party and spend a minimum time in your room, chelsea is just fine.

12 September 2011

Liked: 1. Staff friendly and helpful 2. Air con works wonderfully. 3. Clean linen and room, though the domitory room was very basic

Disliked: 1. Not a pleasing or welcoming street frontage. Flag of place hanging on 8th Ave, pointed towards wrong end of 30th St. 2. Should get all electric sockets in every wall working. Only had two socket to share among the four bunks room. 3. Could provide wardrobe or lockable trunks for the domitory rooms.
