Fresh Hotel and Hostel

“Economic safe place to stay”

The Continental Hostel is a very basic but clean place to stay. The value for the price is great! It only takes about 5 minutes to walk to the next subway station. As a woman traveling with my niece, we felt safe, even late at night! Great price and very friendly, knowledgeable people. The lockers in the basement added an extra benefit, which allowed us to leave luggage even after we checked out of the room! Great value.

“Surprisingly good!”

It was better than I expected. You can't beat the price, and it was safe and clean. Very satisfied.

“kann Ich empfehlen für...”

Wer New York sehen will und nicht all zuviel Zeit in seinem Zimmer verbringen will für den Preis wirklich zu empfehlen. Hatte ein 6-Bettzimmer für zw2ei Wochen. - Betten wurden jeden Tag frisch bezogen und Zimmer gereinigt - Bad im Flur wurde jeden Tag gereinigt und hatte guten Zustand - Zimmer besteht nur aus Betten Für mich als New York Entdecker und Jogger (nähe Central Park) eine gelungene Unterkunft. Subway 5 min entfernt und alles schnell erreichbar. Ich habe mich in guter Umgebung gefühlt.

“Very good”

This hostel was really good for what we had paid. The sheets were changed quite everyday in 7 days, the people were welcoming and very helpful. We had to share the bathroom and everything was fine.The rooms were not really big but when you go to NYC, do you really need more than that?!There's so much more to do htan staying at your hostel! The subway is very close so it's really handy and you've got shops all round in the area if you need anything.

“Great Manhattan Hostel”

This was a leisure trip to watch a game at Yankees Stadium before they tear it down and to see New York City. This was my first visit to NYC and I knew I would be sightseeing all day and would only need a place to sleep. The Continental Hostel is located just two blocks from a Subway stop, and is about a 4-5 minute walk to Central Park. The neighborhood feels very safe and there are several places near to eat and shop. The room is tiny, only 98 sq. ft. But we didn't need much. The beds were comfortable enough and the sheets were clean. There was no air conditioner and the room did get a little stuffy even with the window open, but wasn't too bad. The shared bathroom was surprisingly clean. I took some sandals to wear in the shower and didn't even wear them because of how clean the shower tub was. I bet I saw the cleaning staff every time I was in the stairways. I give an A+ on cleanliness. I would definitely recommend the Continental Hostel to anyone looking for an inexpensive place to stay with not a lot of amenities or extras. It was perfect for two guys to stay at who left their wives at home with the kids.

“Super Lage, super Preis”

Das Hostel war echt okay für den Preis. Man darf aber nichts erwarten von den Zimmern. Es war sehr klein. Die kleine Heizung darin hat nicht funktioniert und ist sicher seit Jahren nicht gereinigt worden, weil sie voller Staub war. Im Zimmer war nur noch ein Spiegel und die Fenster hatten ihre besten Tage auch schon hinter sich. Betten wurden aber jeden Tag gemacht und das Bad in Flur wurde auch immer geputzt.

“Nous y reviendrons sejourner dans cet hotel”

hotel tres sympa,une personne qui parle francais en plus.une armada de femmes de menage donc tres propre,la chambre est faite tous les jours et les draps sont changes tous les 2 jours

“Much better than expected”

After reading all the reviews with rat sightings and bugs I didn't know what to expect. I am very pleased to say - I saw no bugs or rats - other than outside. I rented a dormitory bunk but never had to share a room. Everyone there was really cool - staff and guests. I usually retired back to the hotel at 2 am and ended staying up until 5-530 in the morning hanging out and drinking with other hostelers. Than out the door at 8. Probably best for younger travelers but overall for the price I think anyone would be satisfied.

“Would definately stay again”

A very hip place to stay in the city. Rooms were not to small, air conditioning worked great. Really cool game room. Shared bathrooms not a problem at all. 4 rooms to a bathroom...never had to wait and they were clean. Great location!! 2 blocks from the subway. If you are looking for a 4 star hotel this is not the place but if you are looking for a good price in a good location this is the place. Great for younger crowd. Probably wouldn't stay here if you have young children. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

“A great deal if you want to stay in NYC on the cheap”

Comfortable, quiet and clean...an excellent bargain for anyone who is looking for a place to crash for a while.
