The Bowery House in , Yhdysvallat

I stayed in the winter period, so it was cold out side. Therefore the heater was turned on maximum inside. This is good, but during the night it is not preferable and no fresh air was added to the room. In addition the heater produced a lot of hard noise, so earplugs are badly needed. Although the hostel was cleaned very well I was bitten by a bed bug. I reported this and directly got a new room. Marloes, from Netherlands ~ 15th Feb 2013

If you're over 6ft tall and are claustrophobic, this place is not for you. Daniel, from Australia ~ 3rd Feb 2013

The noise level is very loud. You can hear everything the others are doing: if they breath loud, snore, typing on their laptops, close the door, lie on the bed,.. It's like your camping. The rooms are extremely small around 2.5 m2 - this is no joke! If your suitcase does not fit under your bed, good luck! I also stayed at an other hostel in Midtown which had a better location, better facilities, bigger rooms, tv, internet and was cheaper - even during New Years Eve!

The place is pretty clean, although it is dimly lit. Facilities were neat. It doesn't have laundry room, so it is inconvenient for those staying for long. It is located south of NY, so it is not very near places like Central Park. Kind of central to all attraction, but not particularly close to any. An Son, from Vietnam ~ 21st Nov 2012

You will need deal with a lot of stairs, so if you can not use stairs look for other hostel. Otherwise is a good place. Yuri, from Brazil ~ 21st Nov 2012

The rooms are really small (bed too) and it's impossible to sleep in the morning because you can hear ten alarms going on, since the walls don't go up to the ceiling. If you like to get privacy in your shower, it's not a good place to go! They charged me more than what was written on hostels.com (never explained why) and they made a mistake and charged me 50$ more on my credit card after I checked out and I'm still waiting for them to make the correction...

Private rooms not truly private. Please put a ceiling on the rooms! It will help people sleep and people won't irritate each other all the time during late night hours and early morning hours. Thomas, from Switzerland ~ 7th Aug 2012
