The Local NYC

If you like the hostel experience, The Local is a great choice. Prices are very fair, and the place itself is very nice with guest amenities. They also have more traditional rooms if you're traveling as a couple. They also have locked boxes in the rooms for you to stow any valuables.nnVery close to the trains, just a short trip over to Manhattan. The Local was everything I wanted out of an affordable hostel for solo travel - I stayed there for both my weekend trips to NYC!

Amazing place and surprisingly inexpensive for the location.nMy boyfriend and I had such an amazing experience here. We were provided excellent service from Matt and the other workers.nThe room was also great for the price. Very hip and modern and very artistic. We looooved the set up of the place and the warm hospitality.nIt was also located very close to the city and there are a lot of neighboring shop, stores, cafes, etc.nWe will definitely be staying here again.

I was asked to pay an addition fee of about 45% upon my arrival. I was told this was because I was coming in from a different state. I have no issues with this, however, I should have be notified before my arrival to make adequate plans. Also, they should not have accepted payments for a service they knew I would not be able to access without making an additional fee. When I request a refund, I was told that will not be possible. I would leave a zero star rating if I could. Horrible experience!

Loved staying here. Would definitely recommend. The view from the terrace is amazing. Price was very reasonable as there is very good connections via subway.

Very nice staff... Room was private and comfy...easily accessible by train... Be careful during covid times
