Read more ► The three things that make your stay worth it in this hostel are location, location,and location. It is minutes away from everything you would want to visit in NY including the port authority bus station. Hop on-Hop off buses for the downtown loop have a stop on the very street of the hostel and there's a broadway theatre right next door. Rooms and linen are clean and bathrooms are on-suite and cleaned daily by housekeeping. They also serve a decent breakfast and provide safety boxes in the room. The rooms are small, so make sure that you dont have really large bags. I was traveling alone and was really relieved that the hostel was in such a busy area, I could come back late without any fear. Overall, completely worth it! Read less ▲	overall: 80% Atmosphere: 3 Location: 5 Facilities: 4 Staff: 4 Cleanliness: 4 Value For Money: 4 Security: 4

They gladly checked in my bags until 3 p.m. It gave me time to explore a bit of the city with the hassle of my luggage. Staff was AWESOME! Free, consistent WIFI. Clean rooms, small but clean. Spacious bathroom and shower. Even includes 4 safes to keep valuables in. Location was amazing. Within 1 minute walking distance of Times Sqaure. For the price everything was beyond what I was expecting. Will return if I ever make it back to NYC. Specifically Nate and Jazel (sp?) were very helpful with directions and questions. These big Florida boys will return. Read less ▲	overall: 100% Atmosphere: 5 Location: 5 Facilities: 5 Staff: 5 Cleanliness: 5 Value For Money: 5 Security: 5
MARIA MERCEDES A. 2012/05/20	A fabulous place to stay in the center of the world.

Thomas o. 2012/05/19	Overall experience: it did the job but it wasn't always that pleasant. The location was great, if a bit pricey. The 4 person bunkbed rooms are TOO SMALL. There's barely any room to move, there is no daylight (in this particular room) and 1 working light in one corner of the room. It's not a very pleasant environment... Read more ► Overall experience: it did the job but it wasn't always that pleasant. The location was great, if a bit pricey. The 4 person bunkbed rooms are TOO SMALL. There's barely any room to move, there is no daylight (in this particular room) and 1 working light in one corner of the room. It's not a very pleasant environment, even if space is of course limited in New York. The included breakfast is so basic it may as well not exist - the only choice to eat is pretty much a stale bagel. Also, certain reception staff were quite blunt and had no sense of friendliness. When we booked the hostel, its name was "Equity Point Hostel @ New York" and we found that the taxi driver had no idea it existed -- later we found out its name has recently changed to something like "Hotel @ 41st". Might help things if the name was changed on online sites too! Read less ▲	overall: 60% Atmosphere: 2 Location: 5 Facilities: 2 Staff: 2 Cleanliness: 4 Value For Money: 2 Security: 4
Camila s. 2012/05/13	The location is awesome and the staff was very kind! Everything was always clean and calm, and the breakfast was great!

Carli 2012/05/13	I found the location was absolutely fantastic! All staff were very friendly and helpful when needed. The rooms were quite small although I did like that there was a bathroom per room. All in all, a pleasant experience.	overall: 83% Atmosphere: 4 Location: 5 Facilities: 4 Staff: 5 Cleanliness: 4 Value For Money: 3 Security: 4

Could not believe how quiet it was in the room though, fantastic for sleeping! Keep in mind this is not a 'party' hostel is more of a hotel.

Read more ► I had a wonderful experience, I 'm a girl and went by myself to NYC, it was gonna be my first time so I needed a trustul place and well located LOCATION - just perfect, one block from Porth Authority (bus station), in the hearth of times square, walking distance to Rockefeller Center, Empire State building, Madison Square GArden, Hard Rock Cafe, subway all lines to the 5 Islands. STAFF - they were all great people, helped me with early check in and lugagge store while I was out, no extra fees, kind people. FOOD - the breakfaat is good and enough, it's like a buffet COST - It's a bit expensive considering thta's a Hostel and U get to share rooms with other people but once you appreciate the location It'll worth the money. FACILITIES - clean, safe, luggage storage, free wifi access NOISE - I got a good room 'coz I didn't hear anything and I'm not a good sleeper kind of person I will definetly go back and recommend this place 100[%] Martha Jaramillo From Colombia Read less ▲	overall: 89% Atmosphere: 4 Location: 5 Facilities: 5 Staff: 5 Cleanliness: 4 Value For Money: 4 Security: 4

Jose 2012/04/12	Great location! I like that the bathroom is inside the room rather than in the hallways. Clean room including towels, sheets, bathroom, etc. The price is a little high for a shared room but the location makes up for it. I will stay here again and recommend it to anyone.	overall: 95% Atmosphere: 4 Location: 5 Facilities: 5 Staff: 5 Cleanliness: 5 Value For Money: 4 Security: 5
