I had an amazing stay at the YMCA West Side in New York City! If you’re planning a small trip or even a solo getaway, this is such a great option. The price was extremely reasonable for NYC, especially considering the location. It felt very secure the entire time, which is so important when traveling alone. What I loved most was how quiet. It is perfect for resting after busy days exploring the city. Clean, simple, and peaceful. Highly recommend for anyone wanting a safe, affordable, and low-stress stay in NYC!

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

A SAFE amenity for a single female solo traveler. Loved the security at the late night hours. Amenities were good enough. Women’s bathroom was sometimes clogged toilets but a hot shower and safe place to do business was all I needed. Thank you for letting me check in early for a fee so I could rest. It meant the world to me.
