    My friends and I had a blast staying at the YMCA near Lincoln Center and Central Park. We caught a mind-blowing performance at the 145-seat theater and joined some epic Pilates classes. The place had mad creative vibes and the flexible schedules were perfect for our adventures.

    We wish there were more late-night options for us young party animals to keep the energy going after our daily thrills.

    The excellent location

    The rooms in the corridors were very long, so there was a lot of noise and very little respect for sleeping schedules.

    Fantastic location, next to shops, park, restaurants, Starbucks, metro, shopping center, everything, gym included, mini cafe in the hotel downstairs.

    A room the size of a wardrobe, noise from the air-conditioning outside all the time, a window that could not be closed, beds squeaky terribly when you turn over to the other side, a queue for showers, ladies will not clean the room "because things were on top" and where they were supposed to be if there was no wardrobe, chest of drawers or shelves only a desk and 1 chair .

    I always come back for a relaxing stay. The helpful staff once guided me to exchange money. With Free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, fitness studio, and spa, it suits me perfectly. Plus, the 24-hour reception and security make me feel safe. I keep coming back for a romantic escape.

    Great location,

    He did not accept our request to raise the standard of the room for an additional fee, of course. Shared bathrooms, toilets - one per floor. Very small rooms with poor equipment.

    I recently stayed at the West Side YMCA for a few nights and had a fantastic experience. The location is unbeatable, just steps away from Central Park and a short walk to Columbus Circle. The rooms were clean and comfortable, with a TV and cozy bunk bed setup. The staff were friendly and the atmosphere felt safe. I also appreciated the good WiFi and the variety of amenities available, such as the pro gym, basketball court, dance section, and cardio corner.

    I do recommend this hotel.

    Positive point just in front of Central Park Columbus circus with all the shops to hand, I use the Metro at 5 minutes from the establishment to get back to the center, it is also possible to go on time square a pieds a 25 minutes walk. I recommend this hotel to people who want to travel a little bit to visit New York as far as I am concerned I had a single room with a cleaning of the room every day.

    this establishment proposes gym and swimming pool by lack of time I am not visited it is two spaces, to make you a feetback, . value for money, it would be important to revise slightly has the fall the amount of the rooms.

    the location is amazing - right next to central park and super close to times square and columbus circle. the staff are great and it's a wonderful value for the money. the rooms are clean and comfy, and the shared bathrooms are not usually crowded. also, you can use the gym for free.

    Would recommend

    Ideal location very big point! nickel building and room for two and more than enough for people who are in NY to visit and not to stay in a hotel room all day long

    The toilets lack cleanliness, I doubt that the fault lies with the staff of the hotel but rather with the person who stays there because they are cleaned every day, the hotel could invest in toilet brushes so that everyone leaves clean after his passage.

    We stayed at this place and were very pleased with our experience. The location is ideal, right in the heart of the city, surrounded by a beautiful park and located in central Manhattan. The service and staff were fantastic, always friendly and accommodating. The room amenities were excellent, including heating and air conditioning, tea and coffee facilities, and a mini-bar. The free Wi-Fi in the rooms was reliable and fast. The room itself was clean and comfortable, with a flat-screen TV and a nice hairdryer. The dining options were great, with a restaurant and a bar/lounge area. We also loved the leisure facilities, including the spa & wellness center, the indoor swimming pool, and the sauna. we had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend this hotel to everyone.

    In conclusion, we highly recommend this hotel to everyone.

    Perfect location right by Central Park, close to Times Square and subway. Clean and spacious rooms with TV, fridge, and wardrobe space. Comfortable beds and GREAT air conditioning. Private bathrooms with key card access, always cleaned throughout the day. Affordable price for backpackers. Safe and secure. Helpful and friendly staff.

    The location is on a very good street and 1 min from the central park... At 15 min from times square . At 5 min from all subway. We can come back late without being afraid. There is also a lot of things for the sportsmen, weight room, yoga, meditation, basketball, judo...

    Showers. On the shower doors there is a mist and hidden effect but in reality it is totally transparent so we find ourselves one in front of everyone. It's really bad.

    I recently stayed at the YMCA for a few days and it was a great experience. The location is unbeatable, right across from Central Park. The staff were friendly and the rooms, although basic, were comfortable with a TV and even a safe. The facilities, including the pool and gym, were amazing, well-maintained, and a highlight of my stay. a secure and convenient place for solo travelers.

    I do recommend this hotel.

    The location of the hotel was great, with easy access to Central Park and the Manhattan city center. It was convenient for exploring popular sites like Times Square. Additionally, the room was basic but clean, which was satisfactory for my needs as a solo traveler. The staff were friendly and helpful, making the overall experience pleasant.

    One of the negatives was the noise in the rooms. There was a constant loud industrial noise coming from outside, which made it difficult to sleep or even relax during the day.

    The location is ideal, the weight room, as well as the sauna and steam room were very nice to use during the stay.

    Lack of decoration in the room where we were ... no painting, no mirror, so too empty for my taste ... lack of personal touch and warmth ...

    I recently stayed at a great location near Central Park, just 5min from the subway. The room was clean and comfortable, and the shared bathrooms were never crowded. The staff were helpful and there's a convenient luggage storage room. I also had good WiFi reception in my room. What I loved most was the YMCA's proximity to cultural events, safe transportation, and great coffee and food options.

    Nothing to mention.

    The hotel is situated in a prime location, just a short walk from Columbus Circle subway station, providing easy access to New York's top attractions. Its proximity to Central Park allows for leisurely strolls and relaxing picnics. The rooms are clean and well-maintained, with comfortable beds and amenities like a TV and fridge. Additionally, the hotel offers a range of facilities, including a pool, sauna, and steam room.

    The receptionist was unfriendly and unhelpful.

    I recently stayed at Ymca for a business trip, and I was pleasantly surprised by the range of amenities available. The multi-purpose swim times in the Small Pool and Lap Swim times in the Large Pool cater to a variety of age groups, ensuring everyone can enjoy the facilities. The 65000 square-feet fitness center, complete with a sauna, steam room, weight-lifting and cardiovascular equipment, and 2 indoor swimming pools, was a highlight of my stay. The expansive fitness center was a great way to unwind after a long day of work, and the indoor swimming pools were a refreshing way to start the day. The variety of options ensured that there was something for every guest, and the spacious facilities were well-maintained and provided a relaxing atmosphere.

    Shared bathrooms need improvement.

    My stay at the Ymca was fantastic! The staff and housekeeping were incredibly helpful and pleasant. I loved the clean and private restrooms and showers. The location was perfect, just a 5-minute walk from the subway in either direction. The room was comfortable with a fridge and air-conditioning. Plus, the price for 7 nights was unbeatable considering the proximity to Central Park. This was by far the best hostel I've stayed in, and I can't wait to book again for my next visit. Thank you for an incredible week!

    Multi-purpose swim times in the Small Pool and Lap Swim times in the Large Pool are perfect for all ages. I had a blast swimming laps, feeling like Michael Phelps, and then joining a lively family swim session. The variety of swim times cater to everyone's needs, just like a buffet of aquatic fun!

    Bathroom cleaning can be upped a lot.

    During my transit in New York, I stayed at the West Side YMCA. The proximity to LaGuardia Airport, just 15 km away, made it extremely convenient for my short stay. The complimentary wireless internet access was a great plus, allowing me to stay connected while on the go.

    The lack of a proper common area made it challenging to meet other travelers, as the existing sitting area was not inviting. This minor drawback limited the opportunity for social interaction within the hostel.

    Great facilities including a pool, sauna, and steam room. Affordable breakfast options available in the lobby. Convenient location next to Central Park and close to a subway station. Accommodating staff who allowed us to store our bags and use the shower facilities before check-in.

    Felt extremely welcome, no complaints whatsoever.

    Great, quiet location. Room on the high floor with a view of Central Park. Semi private bathroom in the hallway, clean on the fly. Room very small and modest, matching the price. Safety deposit box equipped. Internet OK. Generally good, safe place to stay in NYC.

    Almost an hour in line to check in.

It is conveniently situated near Central Park, the Columbus Circle subway station, and just a short walk away from 5th Ave, Starbucks, and Target.

    The West Side YMCA, located just down the street from the cultural mecca Lincoln Center, offers a robust curriculum and flexible schedules that provide a safe space for families to grow and play together. The 145-seat proscenium theater at the West Side Y creates an environment that encourages children to experiment, explore, and pursue their own interests, while many faculty members hold advanced degrees in early childhood education, ensuring a safe.

    My wife says that the communal showers were small and lacked space for clothes, making it challenging for families with children.

    Best aspects were the location and price. The hotel was just a stone's throw away from Central Park and close to the metro station, making it incredibly convenient to explore the city. The value for money was excellent, as the price was affordable compared to other options in the area. Additionally, the staff were friendly and efficient, providing a pleasant experience overall.

    The noise in the hallways and the lack of soundproofing. The noise from the hallway traveled far and could be disruptive.

    I had a late check-out request which was accommodated by the helpful receptionist. However, there was a misunderstanding and I was rudely reminded to check out by two different staff members. Despite this, the location and value for money were great. Gym facilities were superb and the proximity to the metro station was convenient. I would recommend this hotel.

    The hotel's common areas are beautifully decorated with comfortable seating and lovely artwork, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. As a senior woman, I appreciated the accessibility of the hotel, with easily accessible elevators and well-lit hallways, making it convenient for me to navigate and enjoy the facilities.

    The only thing I would ask for to better accommodate senior people is for the children of the staff to be more proactive in assisting with luggage and providing extra support for older guests.

    Attended a fun camp, but the only thing that worked perfectly was the location, easily accessible by train. I had a great time working out with a YMCA trainer who seemed more invested in my health than the hotel's cleanliness.
