What people say
Central location. cheap, orderly, friendly. Felt safe. Price, location (close to the subway). Location to subway and central park. Is very close to the metro. I would have liked a single-sex dorm. There are many rooms so it should be possible to dedicate one or two for females only. You had to book online and they were never sure about how many beds theyhad for free...all reviews »
How the staff would come in to the room in the middle of the night to do a role call.
