"(Warning: bed bugs!) I do not recommend staying here. The bedrooms can only be locked from the inside, meaning that you cannot leave valuable stuff in your room when leaving the rostel (no safe in the room). Sheets were not cleaned. There were tiny bloodstains on the sheets. After a day we found that there were bed bugs. We had to leave to a hotel. After calling the owner we finally got the full amount back after first being asked to stay at their other place in brooklyn with worse google reviews! We had to clean all our clothes with hot water and clean our suitcases (which we eventually threw away). Bed bugs may not sound like a big deal, but you do not want to take those bugs home with you!"

"The worst accomodation in my life! Never ever go here. The hotel is filled with bed bugs. I had to throw away my luggage and lots of clothes. The hotel itself is nasty, it stinks and you had to climb two flights of stairs to arrive. You cannot lock the room and so your luggage isn't safe. The grocery man outside knew the numbers to unlock the front door so you can only guess who also knows. PLEASE DONT GO. The area isnt safe, the room is filthy and the hotel owner isn't the nicest."

"First this is a Hostel not a Hotel. I wasn’t too sure about booking this place after reading the reviews. But honestly I would stay here again. The location was perfect. Subway access just around the corner. Easy to find, the person in charge was very nice. She let us drop off our bags before check in time which is 4pm. Then let us check in early at 12:30pm. There’s 2 floor levels we were in the 3rd level. The only disadvantage is there’s no elevator. Going up the stair when tired can be annoying. But that’s the only thing stoping me from giving this place a perfect score. The room was really nice. Yes u have to share a restroom with 2 other rooms. But we never saw anyone in our floor. It has a kitchen which was convenient to warm up our left overs. I took pictures and I wish I could post them. But If ur looking for something offordable I recommend this place."

"To those who plan to stay in this horrible place with terrible service. -This is absolutely not a hotel even though all the websites saying 3 stars hotel. - I made a reservation but never stayed because i never experience a frightful place like this before. - Took me a long time asking people around about this place. Finally found the entrance but had to do self-check in through a scary and creepy stairs with the stinky hallway. - I never see my name on the door as it suppose to after you reserved. - i canceled and never stayed because i think this place is like for hooker and their customers. - HIGHLY NOT RECOMMENDED - YOU WILL REGRET EVEN BEFORE YOU SEE THE ROOM."

"Stayed here for 2 nights and it was nice. It is an apartment, not a hotel. It's also a self check in service. They sent me an email with the self check in instructions but you could also call the number. I had thought that the shared bathroom would be disastrous but it wasn't..the two other guests didn't even arrive (as there are 3 rooms so I pretty much had the place to myself...I think there are more apartments on the second floor but I was on the first)..The only problem I had were the stairs and I don't even call it one, it's just that it's steep to climb up. But for the price I paid to stay for two nights compared to actual hotels this place is a steal. You get a key to go in the apartment and also a closet key.Your room door can't be locked from the outside but the inside....you also have a key to the closet where you can lock your valuables when you're gone for the day You should definitely stay at this place. P.s - to find it, it's to the right of the beauty supply store."
