Great hostel. Showers are not always hot but it's not cold either. We were on the girls floor and everything was very clean. Very near central park and a subway station. Easy to explore entire NYC. Staff was great, very helpfull. The fact that you couldn't take your suitcases upstairs wasn't inconvenient. You could stack a bag with all the belongings you needed.
Very friendly staff and prepared to answer all your questions. The position of the hostel was perfect because you are not in the middle of e.g. hectic time square and gives you the feeling that you can mingle with the americans. Distance to downtown is even on walking distance or take the metro which will take only 10 minutes.
I enjoyed my time in USA because this place is really good to stay, the neighborhood is quite and it is a safe place. I stayed in a girl room which is not crowded. 2 restrooms along the corridor. I met girls from other countries. The staff are helpful and nice. Just to remind after check out the luggage storage charge $1 per bag per hour.
The room temperature is high without air-con especially in summer days. This will make a person keep sweating.
Actually, i booked this room before i came in New York. I didn't know this place was the worst that I never seen before. So I just throwed away my 10% reservation fee it was $15 and I moved there out. I didn't want to stay even though one night. no eleveter, no airconditional. you have to go up 4 floor by yoru self.if you book only female' room.
this is a very nice hostel. close to the subway, very close to the central park, clean, the bunk beds are made by wood and very comfortable, the rooms are big and classic ney york style, the bath rooms are big, the kitchen is big and has 2 big fridges, a cooker and dishes - all u need is there. in the lounge are nice couches - there is a nice atmosphere (the stuff is living there as well - it is not like a hostel at all, it is very nice)
The staff were friendly and helpful, the shared room and bathroom on the girls floor were kept nicely. The subway station was just one block away - so was Central Park. It was a little distant to Lower East side where I visited the most, for about 15 min
Very good deal. I enjoyed my staying. Quite affordable
really nice atmosphere, liked the possibilities to cook, the kind staff, open minded people! will be back!
This Center is very pleasant and ideal if you're just looking for a clean place where to have a shower and sleep after spending your day visiting the city. Situated on W88th, near a subway station, you can easily reach downtown or uptown. I keep this adress for my next travel to New York.
Good hostel in a safe neighbourhood. Suitcases are not allowed up the stairs, so be prepared to either traipse up and down or pack a small bag. Gets a bit leaky on the top floor when it rains, but no major drama. Recommended for cheap rates, safe community, and good location.
Good hostel, really safe place, you can bring your owm food, there is a safe for your personal papers and computers, it is not really far from downtown in subway, really clean and not noisy but any party or fun things
Nice hostel, excellent location and easy access via trains. Good and friendly staff. Could make the place cleaner though. Overall, still a nice one.
good place to stay at. no problems staying in a room with people u dont know. everyone was friendly. lovley location!
International Student Center New York is a very nice hostel and very cheap, maybe the cheapest in Manhattan (except for Harlem). It is in a good position you can reach it fast if you need something to leave at the hostel and every essentials are very close to the hostel, too. It's also very save, they have cameras for your luggage, but you have to leave it in the lobby. If you need constant access to your stuff you can just leave it in your unlocked room, just the hostel itself is locked. At last you can say: if you need a cheap accommodation this hostel is very advisable compared to other hostels of New York!
very Friendly and welcoming hostel. The room are pretty big and the it's a nice place to meet people from all over the world. The staff is very nice except for one of the person working at the reception: nick, who is a Douche bag! he is VERY mean and condescending!!
