West Village Eurohostel

Good location, a two-minute walk to the waterfront, and the subway and cafés are not far away. It’s fairly quiet. There’s no breakfastoption, but they offer free coffee in the lobby in the morning. There were problems with the hot water in the shower, so we had to use a shower on another floor.

This is a good, inexpensive option in Manhattan, 2 blocks from the Whitney and the High Line. To be clear, the room is tiny, definitely just for sleeping. And there is one shared bathroom per floor. But it’s clean and has everything you need. The small lobby has nice seating and some wonderful art books.

No hot water. I tried to shower 3 times. Finally took a very cold shower.

Cozy little nook tucked away from all the ruckus but close enough to walk to. Hot showers and great value for overnight stay.

The staff was impeccable. My only complaint is the temperature- it was like a sauna in that room and nothing I did helped to get the temperature right (air conditioner, open window).
