The staff is unpleasant. The maintenance of the facilities could be improved.

The condition of the facilities is outdated, the noise from the air conditioning, some bathrooms have a sink with no hot water, others have a shower that does not close, others it's the door...

location, good value for its price, 24/7 reception, safe environment and we could leave the luggage for 4$ each. there were spots to refill water for free and the bathrooms were cleaned a few times a day

even though the bathrooms were always clean, the room was a bit dirty with dead cockroaches and you could not ventilate the room. the air conditioner could not be closed so we had to sleep every night with noise. the beds were noisy and they were a bit dirty too

The location above all. Close to subway station and places of interest in a quieter area of New York. Steps from Central Park was spectacular for me

Sometimes the bathroom was clean, I think because of people's habits not because of lack of cleanliness of the place.
