Great value
This is exactly what I needed in New York, a clean bed in a nice room with good communcal spaces for working. The only downside was the bathroom because I was on the shared floor and female bathrooms were on another floor so it was a bit of a pain but honestly solid value for money in New York and a really nice alternative to a regular hostel.

Read before you stay
This building is really cool but was disappointed with how small the room is. I’m 6’1 And can’t fully extend. Thankfully I’m barely in the room so the size wasn’t an issue til I extended. The main problem is the floor is cement and noise travels which wouldn’t be an issue if the ceilings weren’t holes. There is no ceiling so you can hear everything, snowing travels across the hole floor. That also means light come in because all the lights are never off. Something is also beeping every 10 seconds twice. I have no idea what it is. The last bad part is the pillow is super super thin. Now, I realize 90$ isn’t a lot to stay somewhere but this place needs to do better. I will not stay here again. However, staff is cool and the rooms are clean. Showers and sinks could be a little cleaner but overall fine.

Gonna need some earplugs
This is a cute little hostel with individual pods that are roughly 7’X3’. The dorms as well as common areas were kept well clean, the rooms had fresh linens and a towel was provided. I recommend wearing earplugs while sleeping. There is a strict no noise rule in the dorms but sound carries super easily, so it can be difficult at night to sleep. The front desk does provide earplugs as well as eye masks, although those were less necessary. The beds were surprisingly comfortable. There are also limited showers, so be advised you may have to wait a while to get a shower in. Other than that, it was a great place that I would stay at again.

Check in was a little bit of a fiasco, but all the staff jumped into quickly help. I’ve never seen such clean bathrooms in a hostel. Staff was lovely.

10/10 Exceptional

I've stayed in a couple of these cubicle style places in NYC and this was by far the nicest. The room was comfy, good AC (too good in my case, I wish blankets were standard issue). The bathrooms were clean and never too busy. It was reasonably quiet (I wish some people realized what jerks they are for talking loudly at 2am in a place like this). Good wifi, clean kitchens with hot and cold filtered water. Great location! Free luggage storage.
