“ At night,after midnight,it s complicated to get to that location,as it was necessary to take E-Train to Roosevelt Avenue,then take Bus Q33 to LGA-Airport and from there Bus M60 exactly to the location. plus:penalty-fee 30$ in case you take wrong bed,also extra-fee for late check-out,no breakfast served ”

“ Despite the address not being 100% accurate (it is really close, and can be seen from the Boulevard the correct one), also has the problem of cars driving by the street and traffic noise in general, and the check-in time is really restricted to start by 3pm (so I'd arrived earlier, which means I waited during some hours...) But I really can't complain from all this experience. Really cheap place, comfortable and nice wireless connection. ”

“ I booked the Deluxe 4 Bed Female Dorm Ensuite for two days, but a man lived in the shared room on the second day. The staff said that is a mixed room. It is very noisy because the hostel is beside the highway. ”

“ It's not really convenient, but compared to the price, it's reasonable. They don't hold activities for travelers, it's not that fun to live in there. ”

“ When I checked in and went into the room on first day, it smelled really bad! My bed was coverd by someone's clothes. I cant stand it. Went downstairs n told her that I wanna change another room. The 2nd one was much much better. There's no dryer in my room. The traffic is so loud, but I brought my earplugs. That didn't matter to me. I would say the location is really good. 50/50 for getting a good room. But don't be sorry to ask for changing a better room. Don't forget that u pay money. ”

“ It's a pretty good hostel, very cheap, and the quality of the service is excellent. Furthermore, the staff is very respectful regarding the client. In addition to the rooms, you also have a great place where to hang out, or cook, not to mention that the internet is free in both building. There's a bus stop just in front of the hostel and maps are available for free in the hostel. One recommendation : provide client ( for free) with a secure box where to lock a computer for example or other stuff ”

“ Everything was fine, except some guests left the kitchen a bit messy. The staff needs to have someone in the kitchen area to keep guests in line. Also, there is a need for a trash bin to be closer to the cooking area so guests do not have to walk all the way to the doorway to empty trash. But, this was an excellent place for travelers to stay on a limited budget. I loved the staff...they were very helpful and pleasant!! ”

“ The price is very attractive but the location is pretty inconvenient. One has to spend around an hour to get to Manhattan. The wifi was very poor. I have stayed there for 6 days but there were only 2 days that I could access to the wifi. ”

“ It´s a pretty far from Manhattan, but taking the M60 and N/Q Train you get to Times Square in 40 minutes.. services run all nite.. I haven´t been in other hostels but it was a bit of a worry, when I had to left my bags at the aisle after checking out and while waiting for my time to go back to the airport.. anyways, the place is pretty clean, the people there keepseverything in order.. there´s a common area with pool table that´s pretty cool. I recommend it.. ”

“ I was overcharged $100 based on the estimated price I was given. However I liked the location insofar as it was nearby a busstop that took us to the Subway. ”

“ The hostel is excellent!!! Super clean, each bedroom has its own bathroom, which is a plus, and the staff is really accesible! It's in Queens, which means a bus and the train to get to Manhattan, but once you understand how it works, it's perfectz, 100% recomendable! ”

“ Easy check in. Doors are keycarded. Four lockers to 6 beds (forseeably problematic) but there was an atmosphere of trust. The room I was in had a lot of highway traffic noise, but I'm pretty tolerant of that. Bathrooms were clean. Very nice kitchen facility. Within short distance to a couple great grocery stores. Close to the bus stop and very easy transfer to the subway or LaGuardia. One night the bus was down and I had to walk a mile from the subway to the hostel. I will be back. ”

“ A good place to sleep - but not a lot more than that. Very conveniently close to the airport, though! ”

“ Money well spent. If you can take the M60, then this is the best spot in NYC. ”
