I had an overall good experience staying at the Kama Central Park, during my weekend getaway to NYC. The staff was pretty friendly and helpful, especially since I was a ***** who accidently booked a stay at a women's only dorm on Agoda (especially since Agoda didn't really specify that the hostel had Men only dorms, female only dorms and mixed dorms, and when I booked there was only one kind of dorm available) and they were still willing to accommodate me and they did. I got in about 15 minutes before check in and they still booked me in too, which was great. I really got only a couple of negative things to say about my stay and the first was they only give you one towel for your entire stay since they're pretty short on towels, so if you plan on staying there I'd recommend you bring a couple of towels of your own. The other thing is the showers aren't all the same quality. I wouldn't recommend showering in the one person bathroom especially if you get dorm 506 like I did because the water in that shower is cold. The men's shower on that floor however is better (apart from that one always running) because the water isn't cold but not really hot either, it's just ok. I liked the little console in the bed, and that let's you turn on the airflow, change the light color, dim the lights, etc. as long as you got your card. I'll also admit, I got a little worried for leaving my luggage in the bed because the doors to the bed pod, because the bed doors don't lock, but if you keep your belongings in the bed with the doors shut and out of plain view then you shouldn't worry about anybody stealing your belongings. I had a great time in NYC, but if you stay there then you might want to remember to bring a couple of towels and shower in the shower rooms, not the bathroom in your dorm.
要住在紐約市一心,想平,網上找到的,大都是位於 Central Park 附近的青年旅舍,要 share room 之餘仲要 share bath room。但,當我在酒店網站用 Low Price Fisrt,再 filter out 酒店 only。這一間《Bowery Grand Hotel》竟然在各大不同既酒店 booking 平台上,都 top of the list。一人一間超細房,share bathroom,位於曼克頓市中心的唐人街內,中文名叫《大興酒店》,完全合乎我心意啊。一個男人,也只是住一晚,why not。 酒店位於唐人街的外圍,座落於繁華的 Bowery 大街旁。而這一棟紅色大樓,也是區內現存的少數舊式,有鐵製逃生樓梯建在大樓外的建築。若不是兩旁的大廈已變成了現代的建築,相信,這兒會有少少古紐約的感覺。 地下層是商店,要入住這一間酒店,首先,就要爬上一條長長的樓梯。幸好,我只是一名背包客,如是帶了大型行李箱,要抽上來的話,可不是一件樂事啊。再者,這樓梯也的確是很斜。 來到簡單的酒店大堂。華人管理員幫我辦好一切 check in 手續之後,很快就安排到一間客房給我了。 而我的睡房,竟然在大堂前台的對面。當我打開了小門,小小的睡房絕對是一目了然。然而,關了門之後,我也急不及待地跳上這都可以叫做舒服的床,盡量小休一下。 說真,這一個無窗的房間,算得上是麻雀雖小,五臟俱全。有浴巾提供,有牙刷牙膏供應,可以叉電,亦有免費 wifi。此外,那天算是熱熱地,酒店房除風扇外,也有中央空調啊。再者,給住客用的被鋪同枕頭,都夠軟夠暖。真的,一晚貨仔,一個男仔,這質素,我接受到。 我的房間,就是僅僅的一個長方形。我給外國的同事們欣賞一下我在紐約的一晚住宿時。同事已經破口大笑 ”Oh my God, this is jail”。的確,這個房的空間,真可能比監倉更細。不過,真的,this is ok for a bloke。 浴室,是獨立可以上鎖的浴室兼廁所,而且,算是夠乾淨,水又夠熱。當日,行了一整天,洗好個頭,沖埋個靚涼,我決定早點睡,明天早起再遊。 整體,睡眠質素是合格的。一個男人遊紐約,求的只是宿一宵。睡得到,便是好。只是,房間的隔音非常之差,街道嘈雜的聲音,可以說是琅琅入耳。再入深夜,週末的 party 散去了,就可以來一個清靜的熟睡了。 真的,一條佬住一晚, for my night in New York,這間所謂的酒店,拈!

When arriving to the hostel it was very late (around 1am) so we got a casual greeting which was to be expected, we went properly told were our room was so was a trouble trying to find it. The hostel itself was very clean however, when showing the water was always cold. Me and my friend (both female) were in a mixed room, and the other people were lovely and also travellers. The area it was in did not feel very safe for female travellers so be careful at night walking around as we got hounded a lot by local men The lockers in the hostel were TINYY! No suitcase would ever fit in there they were like high school lockers. Our room also didn’t lock when you closed it meaning anybody could walk into a room. All around I would recommend this place to anyone else but recommend them not to leave any valuables.
訪訪客Facilities were better than I imagined, close to the metro station, easy to find. Common area is a little awkward but it’s ok. Just the staff, first girl was nice but a little harsh on the way to communicate, second shift guy was asleep and also not too friendly , third shift was also felt like it’s hard for her to work there. I work in hospitality and I didn’t felt welcomed. Overall was good , just the service , need more customer service.
