Staff was rude when checking-in and there was a total of 5 roaches in my room in a span of 2 days. I had to check out early and reserve another hotel else where.

Excellent property located in a very convenient spot in NYC, walking distance from so many hotspots and subway stations. Rooms are average but excellent for the cost! Having single person restrooms that you card key into is really nice compared to other hostels. Highly recommend

The bathrooms were horrible. The doors didn’t lock, and the sinks only had either cold or hot water—none worked properly. The same issues applied to the shower doors and nozzles. The front desk staff was not very friendly. Additionally, the bunk bed was missing screws, and every time someone moved, it felt like the person on the top bunk was going to collapse.

On July 15, 2025 I paid for 6 nights from December 9-15 at The Westside YMCA. I was forced to check out on the 12th due to a toxic chemical in my room. I flew in from Los Angeles on the 9th. When I exited the elevator to go to my assigned room, #1133, I was met by a French guy who asked my room number. When I told him he said he had been in the room next door, there were bugs and they moved him to the other side. Not a good welcome. When I opened the door to my room, I was wearing a mask and still was able to smell a bad odor. It was now about 9 p.m. I went downstairs to ask for another room but I was told there were none. I went back up, opened the window as much as I could, went out to eat dinner and bought air freshener. I was in NYC to perform in a show Off-Broadway that was then moving to London. Important trip. I couldn’t sleep due to the bad odor and was finally moved to another room. The day of the show I was very ill. Turns out nobody had slept in #1133 for over a month. Obviously it never had been aired out after fumigation. I found a good hotel and moved on the 12th. My insurance should enable a refund. No hot water in showers either after 10 minutes of running it. Buyer Beware!

The room was small- BUT WHAT a VIEW!!! Location, Location, Location! A block off Central Park, Lincoln center for morning coffee… it’s an old YMCA - but the ambiance is charming/ just don’t forget your shower slippers. Housekeeping staff - amazing! Children’s art projects displayed in the lobby made my stay perfection!
The window may have needed cleaning/ my phone. But my memory is PERFECT!
