Jazz on the Park-Hostel Reviews

When I arrived there were two separate people complaining about different issues which didn't help. I asked the reception for the WiFi password which he said I didn't need one, though you did.When I get to the room, it's dark and dingy and my bed looks like the sheets haven't been changed. Bearing in mind, I am 5`3, I couldn't even sit up straight and there was a rug next to me that smelt of recent sick. Bathrooms=like a school, peeling paint etc but ok. Wouldn't go back.

The location was very central, possibly the only highlight about the stay. The staff was particularly hostile and uninviting. The fact that you had to give a valid ID to borrow a towel summarised the character of the hostile.

I did not like all extra fees besides the daily rate (false impression to be cheaper). I did not like paying four dollars to keep bags at janitor's room. It's not a party hostel - staff tries but the place is structured as a regular hotel, it feels too impersonal. I did like how clean it was, sheets were fine, location suitable and neighborhood ok. Next time I'll look for another place in NYC. PS. Many brazilians staying and one at staff.

Good location. Helpfull staff. Only problem. The locker in my room was broken. No where to hook my lock on the locker. I for sure will use this hostel again and recommend the Jazz in the park to my friends.

there are few restrooms, and they are dirty. The doors make a lot of noise

the only advantage is it's near central park and subway enough. otherwise i won't pay one dollar to stay there. it's very expensive and very dirty, and noisy.

The wi-fi is poor in some places and they don't have bathrooms in all floors.

Good price, good staff and good location but the mattresses are dreadful!...

During your trip to NYC, if you go to this hostel only for sleeping and taking a shower you should be okay. It is not for honeymoon.

breakfast 6:15-8:15, that's early.

Very disappointing hostel for a traveller. Breakfast finishing at 8.15, no cooking or fridge facilities as well as no food or beveridge kept in room meant that you had to buy take out every meal. No sure about their reasons though, citing New York health regulations which was not apparent in any other hostel in New York i went to. Limited bathroom and shower facilities which is extremely annoying during rush hour. And top it off the staff were joyless and unhappy most of the time.

I disliked because there are not restrooms for women and men on the same floor. In my personal point of view it was so uncomfortable to go to another floor at midnight.

There are too many noises during the night, doors could be better set to avoid slamming all night long Reception could receive orders. Full price should appear at the time of booking.

The hostel is directly next to northern central park. The subway is just a 5min walk away (no exaggeration), so you can reach everything by subway easily (there is also a direct line to JFK airport). The staff was nice and helpful, when asked for directions etc. The showers were surprisingly clean for hostel standards (the bathrooms and bedrooms are cleaned every day). The downside was, that the beds were pretty uncomfortable and the walls were so thin, that you can hear Every noise at all times

I liked this hostel. It is very clean and pleasant. The staff is attentive. It is near the metro station and the price is quite interesting for those who want to stay in Manhattan. The only thing that is a problem is that the mattresses are plastic and anything comfortable. But I recommend!

The hostel or the staff don't do anything to integrate guests. There are no pleasant place where people can interact.

Great hostel... near from the subway, most of recepcionist are nice (two of them were rude and never knew northing and nowhere, the other 3 were very nice with me)... Nice rooms, but 2 days no one cleaned it (saturday, and sunday).... Is a nice place to stay, if u wanna a safe, clean, cheap and if will be just to sleep....

The hostel is definitely not worth the Money spent. Place is dark, and crappy. Not clean, staff very rude. Wouldn't recommend at all

Good location and staff are nice

The room was too worm to breath, but staff saied they could not control. It should be contoled, I think. Shower room was kinda dirty.
