Nothing except the location in front of Central Park Very disappointing experience. We found several cockroaches in our room during the first two days of our stay. We were moved to another room, but unfortunately, we found cockroaches there as well. This level of hygiene is completely unacceptable for a hotel/hostel welcoming guests. Despite reporting the issue, the problem was not properly resolved. I strongly recommend that the establishment takes immediate action to address this pest problem. I would not recommend staying here.

The price and location were great The booking said private shared bathroom but it was one bathroom for the entire floor and the lock did not work so it felt like it could be unsafe although there was never an issue.

Location, closeness to Central Park Room has never been cleaned, dirty floor, windows were old, dirty and hard to open. Walls were cracking. Bathrooms were rusty, water was standing on the floor, there was nowhere to leave clothes while in the shower

The room was nice and comfortable to stay in The air conditioner was quite noisy so it was difficult to sleep during the night. The main floor showers were difficult to control. Toilets and urinals were flooded. Couldn’t find the swimming pool even though it was advertised
