Gregory
The staff, particularly the manager, were incredibly helpful and took great pride in the hotel. The communal areas had a welcoming atmosphere and were well maintained. The bathroom facilities were clean and spacious. The hotel had a private arrangement with a hostel feel, and they even looked after my bags after check out. The 24hr reception was a great convenience. The location was fantastic, close to the best pubs, clubs, shops, and cafes in Bowery.
Felt well taken care of, no reason to complain.

I had an enjoyable stay at The Bowery. The rooftop garden and living room created a great atmosphere. The staff was friendly and efficient during check-in and check-out. The Wi-Fi reception was excellent, and I appreciated being able to buy soda and other items from the lobby. Despite some noise issues, the natural light pouring into the open top space was a unique touch. I would recommend this hotel for a budget-friendly stay.

The staff was excellent, the place felt secure, and quite decent cleanliness. (No bugs or pests)
It was shared bathroom, and I knew this, this was not an issue at all..but I found the bathroom really cold, not enough place for people to put their clothes in a non dirty place, and slippery floor that got dirty fast. I just found it hard to get dressed without dirtying something..especially my feet. For an improvement, I'd love for the bathroom to have some heat, and to install some little area where you can properly change.

The hotel is situated in a convenient location, close to three subway stations with connections to various metro lines. This makes it easy to explore the city's attractions. Additionally, the hotel is in the heart of the Bowery, with a vibrant atmosphere and plenty of options for dining and entertainment nearby.
Some guests have mentioned that the rooms can be noisy due to thin walls or loud occupants.

It's quite clean. The location is about 3 or block from the subway..
shower in the bathroom is not convenience, no breakfast, it's in the third floor without elevator or escalator.

It is much different to other hostels as it has the design and look of a much smarter place. It also offers the chance to have a private room for a bargain price - even though they are very small rooms!! But who wants to sit in a bedroom all day in nyc anyway!!
Perhaps that the bathrooms were not very big, but it certainly didn't spoil the experience. Perhaps if each cabin/room had a mirror mounted on the wall?

Great location close to popular attractions and easy access to transportation. The staff was friendly and provided helpful recommendations. The building had a charming and modern style.
The room I stayed in was on the same floor as the men's dormitory, and the noise from multiple snoring men made it difficult to get a good night's sleep. Additionally, there were concerns about bed bugs, which I experienced during my stay.

The price was reasonable for staying in Manhattan
The cabin is awfully small and my bedroom linen wasn't clean. On saturday somebody decided to throw a party at the garden upstairs, which made the hotel extremely loud and impossible to sleep. There were actually people having sex in the bathroom and others speaking very loudly at the corridors. Talk about an awful night

The staff was very helpful during my stay. The original cabin with a window was a good room to stay in. The location is really nice. There are a lot of cool restaurants and botiques closeby
The single rooms are ridiculously small, im 5'3" and it was tight. There were no true ceilings and u could hear your neighbor. A bit annoying. If youre not goingbto staybin the hotel much and are flexible about space, it should be fine. Dont bring too much luggage, it wont fit in the room!
