Central Park West Hostel

Location and price. Bed was quite new.

Window that could not be closed in the bathroom of the room, which caused the full room to be cold at all times. Rusty pipes in the bathroom and paint falling from the wall and roof. AC machine in the room meant that window could not be closed completely and New York is a noisy city. Bed had a metallic tube in the middle that was quite uncomfortable to sleep as the mattress was thin. The whole place seems that it was not renovated or properly kept since it was created.

Staff were friendly

En suite bathroom had no washbasin and shower cubicle was not neat The room was not cleaned daily

The location is good (close to subway and with 24/7 services nearby), Central Park, etc... and staff members always nice and helpful, it was always clean and quiet, not a noisy backpackers place... Bathrooms were always clean and not busy, 24 hours reception, clean sheets...

It looks like a pension, and common areas are not necessary accommodating, there´s a kitchen which is OK and some "lounge" area in the basement but I wouldn´t say there were cool places to hang out at... Not too much of a hostel environment...at least not the ones I´m used to, with other travelers with whom to socialize. Understanding NYC it´s an expensive city, this was still not worth it (for the kind of experience I expect in a hostel), I'd rather check other options for the same budget...

i liked the location, and the coffee

The mattress size was really little, the bathroom seat was so old, it looked dirty. They really need appropriate door locks, because the other ones had tape on them
