He who loves sports will love Greenpoint YMCA. A pool, a gym and lots of sports classes are included in the price - and also a great American Breakfast in a typical diner down the block.

This was my first ever stay at a hostel and it was a great experience. I would stay here again and again. The staff were fantastic, there are fresh towels in your room each day and the bed is made up for you. There's even a voucher for a free breakfast at a diner nearby each day you stay. Would recommend this to anyone.

Clean, basic. Bathrooms a little smelly -- pretty sure that urinal cakes were used as air fresheners in the ladies' room. Beds were hard like a brick, but the friendliness of the staff made up for it. And we got vouchers for a really great breakfast at the diner down the street. I'd gladly stay here again, but as a second or third choice.

Location: Positive, neat neighborhood and Very safe. Negative: it is hard to get anywhere fast, especially on a weekend in August, when I visited. The subway system was being repaired and re-routed and was very confusing. It took me four hours to get there from the airport, via subway. Getting into Manhattan was OKAY, but getting to other places in Brooklyn took a long time. More help at the front desk (such as maps and things that explain which way the buses go) would have been very helpful.
