Disliked: Amenities
I don't generally stay in hostels and didn't expect that much, and so wasn't that disappointed. The bathrooms were fine, although having soap consistently would be nice. The bedroom was very small and kind of worn, which gets to the main issue - $280/night for this?? That's highway robbery, no matter what the market will bare. I made the reservation very late, because of a flight cancellation, and I don't know if they engage in some sort of dynamic pricing scheme, but I had just stayed in Williamsburg in a Pod hotel which was MUCH nicer for the same price.

Decent affordable place to stay

This place is fine if you have a short trip. It's a central location the staff seemed nice. The room and shared bathroom were adequate. It's not pristine clean but not bad like you will see some dust and dirt at the corners of the room and it looked like a small stain on my sheets but no big deal to me.

I was in NY for 2 nights on my own and the Lamartine Chelsea was perfect. I was there for a concert at MSG and it was only an 8 minute walk. Times Square was also in walking distance. I felt safe and my room and all the facilities were clean.

Very good

First stay in a hostel and everything was better than expected. The room and facilities were all clean and comfortable. The 5 stars do come with one note. If your room is on the first floor expect to hear everything the overnight desk attendant does. Everything from talking on the phone, doing what sounded like sorting screws or games on their unmuted phone, it will be heard.

Small, noisy and dirty rooms

I don't recommend this place anybody. The rooms are very small. The bed was very bad, I stayed 3 nights and had huge pain on my back. The room was so dirty, lot of dust, marks on the wall, horrible. You can hear everything from the hallway and neighbors and lot of noise from outside. I found tiny bugs from my bed. There are 2 bathrooms per floor and there is nothing to clean the bathroom so after taking shower, bathrooms are dirty. Area has lot of homeless, unsafe.
