Great place. I stayed at HI Hostel the night before, and I prefer the completely enclosed 'pods' at Kama and how it locks, so it can also act as your luggage storage. Only issue I had was that there are ONLY two USB ports inside the bunk, and they both seemed broken - they would not charge my phone fast enough and it died while charging.

Overall I really enjoyed staying at Kama. The capsule bed gave privacy, with a private bathroom inside the room, and a another shared shower & toilet outside. There was a locker in the room. Stayed in the 2nd floor so didn't need to walk up a lot of stairs. The shared kitchen was a bit messy/dirty, but that's more up to the guests to make sure they clean after themselves. The location was great, with subway a few minutes away, and right next to central park. Will definitely stay again when visiting nyc.

My stay at the hostel was not the most comfortable. At check-in, I requested a different room code, but the front desk agent refused to accommodate my request, leaving me frustrated and uneasy. Additionally, my roommate had noticeable hygiene issues, which made the shared space unpleasant—strong odors, particularly from their feet, made resting difficult. While the hostel itself had the basics covered, better customer service and improved cleanliness in shared spaces would have made the stay more enjoyable.

Got stuck with a snorer above me, but somehow they have an air system in the pod that sounds like a white noise which was able to help me sleep. I also didn’t have a towel in my pod (you get a linen/thick sheets, pillow and towel), but the front desk was so amazing about it and corrected the issue right away! He was super awesome. Front desk is very friendly and helpful.

Quiet, clean, comfortable, no frills hostel just 1/2 a block from Central Park. You will get a little exercise going up and down the stairs because there is no elevator. Small sacrifice though; for hot shower water which actually does get hot, even during the winter.
