Very clean. Beds very comfortable. Bar is friendly ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Souvik Nov 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The receptionist was very friendly and helpful. They have a good bar to spend time. Your first coffee/beer is complimentary. Finding a parking spot nearby is a challenge as they don't have their own parking. But the staff helped me find a spot nearby. The location is mostly industrial and not residential. So expect some scraps and broken cars on the road sides. The 23st subway is a 5 min walk from the hosyel. The hostel has a good lobby area where you can work on your laptop of three need be. The bathrooms were clean. There was in room toilet and bathroom as well in the dormitories. The toilet size is a bit too small though. They cleaning staff does a wonderful job to keep rooms and bathrooms clean all the time. Please note that they don't have elevators, so it may be a concern for people with disabilities. ##### Souvik Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Pratik Jun 20, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Good host ##### Pratik Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Giovanni Jun 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### high-end, high-quality hostel It was really a high-end, high-quality hostel.
