This place is just a reliable pick for a quick trip in New York with exceptional value. The location was perfect, with many attractions and subway stations nearby, making it easy to explore the city. Don't skip the chance to check out local food spots outside. they're totally worth it!

The hostel is conveniently located near Central Park, making it easy for us to bike around Manhattan and explore iconic spots. It was great to have easy access to restaurants and attractions while staying with our son's autism support dog.

In my wife’s opinion, the check-in process needs improvement for families with children.

fantastic central spot for exploring new york's highlights

I had an amazing stay, as the staff not only showed great empathy when I broke my humerus but also moved me to a more comfortable room, making my experience much more pleasant. being just an easy stroll from Central Park and Broadway really made my city explorations unforgettable.

Great stay with friends! We loved biking around the city on Citi Bikes, visiting Central Park and the theater district. The hostel was conveniently located, making it easy to explore art galleries, restaurants, and clubs. Clean with friendly staff, it was a perfect budget-friendly base for our adventures.

The only downside was the lack of clear signage for the entrance, which made us a bit confused when we arrived.

average stay with some good parts

The location was super convenient, just a quick walk to Central Park. The room was clean and spacious, with a private bathroom, but the shower head was broken. Staff was friendly, but the check-in process was a hassle due to long waits. I had issues with other guests, but management handled it eventually.

Super clean hostel with a cozy vibe and fantastic location near Central Park. Free coffee and a lounge area were awesome!

I enjoyed my stay. The 4-bed mixed dormitory was clean and spacious. Staff were friendly and helpful. The location was close to key attractions. Wi-Fi was strong throughout. 🏨

Location was unbeatable — so close to Central Park! However, the common areas felt cramped and the cleanliness could use some improvement. 😕

The location of Jazz On Columbus Circle is unbeatable. Just steps from Central Park, perfect for morning strolls. The common areas could use more comfy seating, feels a bit sparse. I really liked the friendly staff. they were genuinely helpful. The dormitory I stayed in felt clean and spacious. Wi-Fi was strong too, which is crucial for planning my days. The dining options are basic but okay for quick bites. However, the check-in process really needs work. There were delays that seemed unnecessary, which put a sour note on my overall arrival. Still, those friendly vibes from the staff make up for it. For the price, it’s a solid choice, especially for those wanting to be near the action.

I loved the welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff. The location is ideal, just a short stroll away from Central Park and other attractions, making it easy for seniors to explore without much strain.

More comfortable seating in common areas would be helpful.

The location is fantastic, just a 5-minute walk to Central Park and Times Square. The atmosphere is welcoming with friendly staff who are always willing to help. The dorms are clean, spacious, and provide lockers for security.

The check-in process needs improvement.
