AI Summary
The property provides well-maintained facilities, convenient location near public transport, friendly and helpful staff, and great value for money. However, some guests found the area quiet but not particularly lively.

In conclusion, it was a very unpleasant stay and I will never stay there again.
First of all, regarding the facilities, the locks on the toilet and shower were broken. As for the shower, it was small and the water pressure was weak. There was no elevator, so it was difficult to go up with heavy luggage. The attitude of the front desk was always overbearing and left a bad impression. There is a shared kitchen, but the food that I had stored in the refrigerator with my name and check-out date written on it was thrown away without my permission, which was sad. I had booked a women's room, but on my last day they put me in a mixed room without my permission. I was truly disappointed when they destroyed my padlock while I was out, opened my locker without my permission, and moved my luggage. I asked for compensation for the padlock, but they refused. I had an unpleasant experience throughout my stay, so my memories of New York are no longer very good.

A better hostel than expected.
No elevator, but quite a lot of rooms, clean.
Air conditioning is a bit noisy. The lobby is spacious, and they provide a welcome drink coupon.
The reception is very friendly and helpful. Lockers are used half under the bunk beds. You need to bring a locker in advance.
There is a kitchen. The fridge is a bit small.
Rooftop access is available, but you have to cross the bridge, so transportation is limited, but you can go to the city by subway.

There was a blast of air conditioning on a hot day and a small but clean bathroom.

The service lady was very enthusiastic, and the boy led the way to the room. The hygiene was also very good, whether it was the bed or the kitchen, a girl traveling alone didn't have to worry, there were no messy people, everyone was very polite and friendly

The atmosphere is very good, the front desk is very friendly, and the accommodation is decent. It's just inconvenient that the locker cannot fit a 29-inch suitcase.

Location is very great close to the station and they have a lot of chairs in it so you can take a rest even after check-out. The bed and restroom were clean and it was not that many people in one room. Highly recommend.
