Good enough
I stay here a lot. It’s the Y, not the Ritz, so my expectation is never high. But it’s fine, clean enough. Usually the check-in security people are great. This time, they lost my driver’s license for a bit and the guard mistakenly thought I didn’t belong there and hassled me until he realized he was wrong. It’s New York.

Dashing thru The Apple 🍎
Quick and easy! The Y is no frills and most importantly “ECONOMICAL” I appreciate there service for the price. Only situation that was a bit annoying was the person at the luggage storage. A little bully and not pleasant at all. The younger lady was lovely and helpful. My only complaint

Something is wrong with the wiring in this place. Was put in room 902. Only 1 outlet (which had 1 plug-in) in the room worked and it was for the window unit. Had a TV on the other side of the room but that outlet didn't work nor the others in the room. Requested new room. Got moved to 901. Room slightly bigger (all rooms in NYC are small) & had a mini frig. Managed to get 3 total plug-ins from 2 outlets to work. Had to rotate the air conditioner, mini frig and 2 cell phones, TV, hair straightener, & Garmin watch on them. Over head light would dim / brighten back & forth. $10 per day at check-in for access to amenities. Room very basic but you get what you need (if outlets work). You get 1 towel per person so bring a wash cloth. Extra blankets available in the room. Beds were comfy though whoever sleeps on top bunk needs not be someone who tosses a lot at night as the whole frame wiggles. Bathrooms were separated from men & women. Dorm style. Was given a code to get in the bathroom on our floor but it opened without it. There is 3 bathroom stales & 3 shower stales. Never had a problem getting either at any time. Nice hot water. Smoke free. Elevators timely. There was always someone watching who entered the lobby. I like that & most of them were nice, but a couple had attitudes. Location was fantastic. Felt safe. Central Park 1/2 block away. 1 street over from where to enter through security for the grandstands to the marathon. 2 blocks to the subway at Columbus Circle.

It is a dorm style property, location is great in Manhattan, but inner condition is just average. I left my bath towel at public bathroom and it was missing overnight. So be mindful of personal belongings.

This is a YMCA so it's not fair to expect the Waldorf for the prices they charge. For the money, it's hard to beat if you're looking for budget accomodation in Midtown; fantastic location a block from Lincoln Center and some of the rooms even have views of Central Park. Bathrooms are mostly shared and mine had hot water problems but staff were great.

it felt like a prison. and none of the stalls in the bathroom had a lock.

Desk staff great. Bed and pillow bad. Bathroom fair—several toilet doors did not latch. The sink area was dirty and the floor wet all the time. One tiny towel, no washcloth.

I was charged additional $20 at arrival which was not mentioned any where online while booking. Bathrooms are shared and are in terrible condition and due renovation. They charge additional for even keeping your luggage after checkout.

It’s expensive and uncomfortable. Beds are squeaky, the room really small and the staff not always helpful.
