There was a peace and harmony away from the busy NYC life after long days at work. The staff was extremely friendly. I was skeptical upon arrival but quickly realized that was exactly what I needed. I very much appreciated the healthy breakfast offered daily. I'm definitely coming to stay there again in future.

This is an excellent place to stay in NYC. We walked from here to most of the main tourist hotspots or a subway station is very close too. The room was expected size for New York, but the three of us were very comfortable. The facilities were clean and had really cool artwork everywhere. The staff were lovely and accomodating and the breakfast each morning was lovely. Would absolutely stay here again, really great choice and value for money. Also had great security on the building and always feel secure and safe.

Nolita express is an historical building served as a military campus back on 1927. Today the building is fully renovated, and its location is downtown Manhattan close to all the most animated neighbourhoods ! Also , it’s charming and classy, the decoration is French style, and we can hear jazz music all around the common areas of the hostel. I was lucky to be there for one week and I was one of the first clients. In the beginning I had a small room , after the manager upgraded me to a double room for the same price ! Both 2 managers and ALL staff were great and I appreciate their help. Every time I was asking for something they were listening and paying attention. Bathrooms and kitchen are very clean. Rooms don’t have a ceiling and this is normal : we could not breathe otherwise ! It’s normal also that we hear noises of other people sleeping, it’s a hostel. But if we see the prices of the hotels in NY, living in Nolita hostel is the best option. Also I was feeling very secure in the hostel : 24h/24h there is someone in the entrance and also there all a lot of security cameras I was lucky and I strongly recommend it to everyone else.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Westside YMCA Hotel, and I must say that my experience exceeded all expectations. From the moment I arrived, I was thoroughly impressed with the hotel's location and the exceptional service provided by the staff. First and foremost, the location of the Westside YMCA Hotel is simply unbeatable. Situated in close proximity to numerous attractions, I found myself just steps away from some of the city's most popular sights. Whether it was exploring iconic landmarks, visiting museums, or enjoying vibrant entertainment, everything seemed to be within easy reach. This convenience allowed me to make the most of my time in the city and truly immerse myself in its energy and charm. Another major advantage of this hotel is its proximity to the subway system. The easy access to public transportation made navigating the city a breeze. I could effortlessly travel to any part of town, saving both time and effort. This convenience was particularly valuable for exploring areas that were slightly farther away, making it a perfect choice for both business and leisure travelers. Furthermore, the level of support I received from the staff surpassed my expectations. They went above and beyond to accommodate my needs and ensure that I had a comfortable stay. Whether it was addressing room preferences, arranging transportation, or providing local insights, their attentiveness and professionalism made me feel valued as a guest. Overall, my experience at the Westside YMCA Hotel was nothing short of exceptional.
