    Quite good, not as bad as people were describing!”

    I was really scared to go to visit this place because I saw many complaints and bad opinions. We still looked for something for less money close to Manhattan and subway (5-10mins by walk to Greenpoint Av). Honestly, this place was a good choice, especially for this price. Room was renovated, with aircondition and fresh towels, small tv. Shared bathroom on the sme floor: two toilets and two showers in the mens restroom. Free luggage storage.

    Value for money, reception and housing keeping staff were all very helpful and friendely”

    Its good value for money , short walk to the nearest subway , however, G line is one of the worst lines in NYC so we spent a lot of time "waiting" rather than travelling. The hostel is clean generally, staff are all friendly and helpful. Female bathrooms are very clean , possibly there is only very few female travlllers as I only saw one other person the entire week I was there, Male bathroom might have been a bit messy, my boy friend thinks its a bit dirty. But generally its a good place to stay. Not lift , so if you come with a big bags will be a bit a sweaty walk up to your floors. Overall, we had a good time there.

    The place is in a quiet part of Brooklyn and is situated in front of a police station (for those who are concerned with security). It is accessible easily by subway, but the subway itself does not come frequently. Depending on the time, the subway comes every 10 to 20 minutes, so always plan your trip accordingly so as not to waste time waiting in the metro. The property is generally clean, with housekeeping coming every other day. Staff is also generally friendly, except for one staff member who did not assist me in my request but instead taught me how to do that task with a sigh. Apart from that, the property is quiet and peaceful.

    This could have been so much better. ”

    I’ve stayed twice before in NYC YMCAs, and always loved it — but never until now in the Greenpoint one. Never again! It’s a terrible dump. The worst things is that the bathroom isn’t on the floor. It’s on ANOTHER FLOOR, 2 flights of stairs, 3 corridors and 3 doors away. Just one male bathroom, with just two sinks, two stalls and two showers, for TWO FULL FLOORS OF ROOMS. Incredible. I had to buy a large bottle of water which I used as a piss bottle for the duration of my stay. Windows don’t close. Just one bright, fluorescent, light. A mattress made of plastic, like in a prison. It’s really a dump. I know it’s cheap. But it’s not cheap enough for what it is. This place isn’t work a dollar over $30/night. You’ve been warned.

    I was really hesitant about staying here since we had to share a bathroom but it wasnt bad, just bring flip flops in the shower. They also gave us a voucher for free breakfast across street which was nice. I never used it but my friend did, she said the food was alright. Great thing about this place subway was close and we were in front of a police station so we never had problems. Room was decent, no bugs or mice the whole 6 days we were there.
