Too noisy, streets are so crowded and there are noisy bars, people screaming and sometimes fights. No elevator and narrow stairs. The price is so high, but it's one of the best/cheap of NY.

Hard to find because small sign and the sign was not on the door. Five floors and no elevators is a drag.

New York Budget Inn provides the best location at the most affordable price. Located on the SE corner of 34th st and 3rd ave, it places one in the heart of Manhattan. The members of the staff were friendly and welcoming. Special mention to Anthony too for going the extra mile to help me collect 5 empty toilet rolls overnight so that I can roll up and keep a painting that I had purchased safe.

Clean and in a good location. Rooms are small and have minimal furnishings, it's not very good value for money... I would stay here again if I was travelling with a group of people but for a couple there are much better places for the same price.

Almost everything was great. Only the bunk bed was very shaky. No matter how hard you try to go to bed without waking the other person up, who is already asleep, you will not succeed.

The hostel was in a very good location. The rooms were clean. The building seemed recent reformed inside. They don´t have elevators, so you have to be prepared to carry your luggage. Bathrooms are ok, but depending on the time, it can be hard to find a free shower. We had problems with the heating. Some nights were freezing, the other nights it was hot like hell. We couldn´t change the temperature by ourselves.

Had a tremendous stay for 2 nights at the ny budget inn, good clean rooms, comfy beds, love the fact that there are endless clean bathrooms with your own privacy and they are regularly checked. The front desk staff really go out of their way to ensure your stay is eventful and fun, lockers for personal belongings are spacious and love the fact that you have your own microwave and refrigerator in your room. I highly recommend this hostel as its very central and surrounded by great eating and drin
