3-Star HostelSummary of reviews related to the '3 Star' categoryHI New York City Hostel is noted for offering an excellent cost-benefit ratio, making it a commendable choice for travelers looking for value for money in New York City. Guests have highlighted the comfortable beds and the overall cleanliness of the hostel, describing it as very clean and pleasant. The common areas are well-regarded and its prime location assures safety and easy access to city attractions with convenient dining options like nearby pizza and take-out restaurants.
While the hostel provides basic amenities and satisfactory accommodation for the price, there are areas needing improvement. Notably, the air conditioning in the rooms can be loud and the closets lack locks, which are available for an extra charge. There are additional fees for luggage storage and paid membership, which some guests have found surprising and not amusing. The Wi-Fi has been reported as very slow and there are instances where the linens were not changed and some staff were less responsive. Additionally, the price, though good overall, is considered slightly expensive for a hostel and NYC in general.
Despite these drawbacks, the hostel remains a comfortable and consistent option. It is deemed decent for its prime location and facilities. Recommendations from guests are frequent and it is generally considered a good, reasonably priced choice for short stays in New York. However, some minor adjustments in terms of service and amenities could enhance the overall experience.
