    PLEEEEEEAAASE get rid of that lobby furniture. I feel like y’all are using the “antique” look as a way of not having to clean or update that furniture. It’s doesn’t look good. Do better. Y’all have the money.

    Great location. Comfortable beds. Cool staff. Smooth check-in. Great signage to let you know what’s going on in the area. Cool common areas. The social aspect is hit and miss, but not bad. GREAT showers. My preferred hostel for a short stay in Brooklyn.

    Honestly, everything was great. Only thing that could have been a bit cleaner were the floors in the bedroom.

    Awesome location, very close to Bushwick. My room waa well furnished with a comfortable bed, and a clean bathroom. Easy check-in and out, you can even leave your luggage for free after checking out. There's a big, welcoming living room, a big kitchen and as well as a working space!

    There was some kind of youth group, with chaperones that took over the lounge. It would have been helpful to know that such a large group would be taking up space in the facility beforehand. I could have planned accordingly.

    Another trip for some interviews found me grabbing a spot at NS Moore again. I always appreciate the friendly and professional staff. This time around I made use of the great kitchen facilities.

    Not the fault of the hostel but the trucks opposite the hostel making a lot of noise over night. Some rooms are fine but some are not. No activities - hard to socialise

    Clean Spacious Price

    The location is not great, on a more or less sketchy area. There’s not a lot of food options, just vending machines that don’t accept cards. A lot of old furniture and paintings, the place looks like it could really use a renovation.

    Staff were nice! The price was good too. Free black coffee available. I liked that the room was spacious.

    The bathroom floors weren’t cleaned well. The soap smell was really strong and there was still hair on the floor. The cleaning lady was on her phone a lot and not very attentive. I asked for milk for the coffee and she took over 20 minutes to get it.

    I loved that there was a communal kitchen and refrigerators where we could store food. The front desk staff was helpful when I asked for a towel.

    Lockers were too tight to put a backpack in there but I had no problem with my bag outside the lockers (but it depends who are in your room). The kitchen doesn't have a lot of containers as bowls and others.

    The hostel was really nice. It is next to the subway. There was a great game room. The staff was nice. The 4 female bedroom was very nice. The neighborhood was ok, I was not afraid to go back to the hostel after 10pm. There was hot water in the shower. The room decoration was lovely.

    The staff isn't bad, but it could be better and more friendly.

    The location is easily accessible, close to the metro and available to park your car around. I felt safe there, and there are also individual safes in the rooms, you just need a padlock.

    Sheets and towels could be cleaner. They painted the door the day we arrived which made it have an intense paint smell. Seemed like unusual timing if you were planning to have guests.

    Quiet, good location, plenty of space. Easy to get to and from walking and using transportation. Affordable.

    Would be nice to have more rooms with less beds (though I’m not sure if there are?) beds could be more comfy with 2 pillows and not just one.

    Location was great. It’s clean. Staff was super nice. Restrooms nicely renovated.

    Room was a bit dusty in places especially the skirting boards. Depended on who you are you may not feel the safest at night walking to the hostel as the area does seem a bit sketchy. That being said I (male) walked back by myself after having had a few drinks in a couple of the bars and felt fine.

    In a great location being only about 12 minutes away from the furthest subway we needed but even closer to others. Also a great location for some good food and bar spots. Staff were super friendly.

    First night I couldn’t sleep because they have in front of the binding a trucks company that runs all night I believe. Their windows doesn’t protect outside nosy. However, next day I requested to change the room and they kindly make it happen. It was great!

    They are located in a very central area.

    The neighborhood was very loud quite early in the morning, but this might have been due to a construction nearby.

    I liked the location! It is pretty close to the subway station and a walk distance from restaurants.

    The bathroom in my room (5 person male dorm - 111) REEKED of smoke. Smelled like someone that's been smoking a pack a day for the last 10+yrs, wearing the same jacket they never wash. I could smell it even while showering - especially while showering. Also, not really the fault of the accommodation, but there was a large soggy sad looking donut in plastic wrap just chilling on the bathroom sink. It was there from the time I checked in to the time I left. It was more funny than anything, but added to the dirty feeling that was the smell.

    There's a Kitchen with refrigerators. Several half bathrooms throughout the building (in case the bathroom in your room is in use). Vending machines (one with toiletries also). Coffee and water station with dining area next door. Lots of common areas. Business center. Courtyard. You can purchase umbrellas at the front desk for rainy days.
