This hostel was in the perfect location for a super quick trip to the city. The location felt safe, though it’s definitely very loud even for New York with the bridge to manhattan and several subway lines running past. My major gripe is with the ensuite bathrooms, particularly the shower. In a shared dorm, there are no hooks and no changing area, so you either risk your clothes getting wet on the floor or walk around naked in front of 7 strangers. A curtain or a bench could easily fix this.

Insane value for NYC. It's a little removed from all the tourist stuff, but easy walking distance to two subway lines. There were a few loud large groups there, but the common space is so massive that it was always possible to find a quiet spot in the evenings. The cafe is paid, but a good value. Super comfortable chairs/couches, really convenient bunks (lots of plugs/a shelf), and AC in the room. I loved the shower setup! The bunks do shake a Lot when anyone gets in/out. Overall, great hostel

The location of this hostel is great and, for DC, the value is good. Compared to other hostels I've stayed at, though, there are a few areas for improvement: - The lockers were too expensive; provide an option to use your own lock please! - There was always hair in the showers and the sinks clogged during "rush hour"; 3 showers for 25+ people is also not great - The beds were VERY squishy and VERY squeaky - Only one slow elevator Overall, I'd recommend it - but just know it's not

Thank you so much for your review and comments. It seems you enjoyed most of your stay. That's great! Yes the lockers cost a fee, we wish we could provide them for free, we do have free lockers in our dorm rooms. We hope you'll stay with us again!

The staff were great and there is no complaining about the location. But I was having serious Orange is the new Black flashbacks with the spare and cramped bathrooms - and this was seriously the first hostel I've been to with NO changing space for the showers! The room itself was fine - the linens were clean. But the climb to the bunk bed was downright dangerous. And after a certain number of comments, you should buy some fans. It was 50 degrees last night and the room was muggy and sweltering!

Thanks for your honest take on your experience. Our unique location in historic Fort Mason is subject to special protections that can make any major renovations to the building a bit difficult. We do our best to keep our facilities updated and accessible within these limitations, but I'm sorry to hear this wasn't your experience. Our maintenance staff has been made aware of your complaints and is working to make improvements. We take this kind of feedback very seriously! Safe Travels! Mira
