Kama Central Park

It might be one of the cheapest options in Manhattan but definitely far less than best bang for a buck. There is no way of charging your electronic devices inside the capsule unless you use regular usb type. The only way is the first floor lobby. No restaurants nearby; Had to walk for 10-15m to get to closest Chitpole and McDonal’s. If you don’t bring shorts and slippers it could be very inconvenient to go back and forth between restroom and your dorm room. I also found some snots dried up on the wall of my capsule

It was a hotel with reasonable prices in uptown Manhattan. Also, provide some light breakfast to the tenant as well. However, the comfortable manner was not impressive. A capsule suit was not enough to absorb the noise from outside and there was no adequate safe to store some personal items. And air ventilation was not enough that could smell week from one of co-tenant.

The hostel it’s an amazing location! Staff was nice! Only problem on my stay was the the lobby was being remodeled. And was noisy in the morning. But this is something that won’t be a problem in the future.

Everything was great from check-in to check-out. The bed was comfortable and the hostel is generally clean. Unfortunately, my room was SUPER warm and had no temperature control so I was basically sweating every night in the room and when you slide your capsule door open, it’s even worse

Considering this is a hostel, it seemed incredibly quiet and clean. I met no competition for shared shower/bathroom facilities and the common area is convenient for working.

Easily the cleanest and safest feeling hostel I’ve ever stayed in and have stayed in absolutely loads

Never been to a Hostel before but since New York is so expensive I had to stay in one. I had an amazing time here, really only used it t sleep but there is a lot to do around the area. Central Park is right next to it and so is Columbia University. Lots of places to eat if you walk a two blocks away from the place and even more places to eat if you walk two more blocks from it. Met a lot of cool people, many from different places of the world. My roommate was from Spain and it was awesome to speak to him. Place is great, staff is very nice and you can meet different people from around the world there. Don’t expect it to be a 5 star service, it is a Hostel, there isn’t a maid that makes your bed every day. Place is really just to sleep if you want to visit and explore New York. The pod has one pillow and a thin blanket so if you want something more you have to bring your own. It is definitely worth it for how expensive New York is. I stayed in a two pod bedroom spot just me and my roommate. There is a locker for you to put your belongings in. Bring a lock, if you forget to get a lock there is a 99 cent store right around block that you can buy one from. Great stay and a great place 4.8/5!

Unique, comfortable, and affordable experience. Highly recommend for solo travellers on a budget!

Great location for the price. A few points to note: in my dorm at least the pods did not lock and either there was no air conditioning or it was turned off. Pods were comfortable and while the fan was loud it was good white noise. It would be good if the pod doors were less loud when opening and closing.
