Positive Reviews

Ideal location in the middle of everything.

Past guests praise the location of American Dream Hostel, describing it as being in the middle of everything. The hostel is within a mile of the Flatiron Building, Empire State Building, and Madison Square Garden, while nearby 23 Street subway station makes it easy to travel further afield. Meanwhile, an abundance of restaurants and eateries are located in the neighbourhood.

Hostel staff is friendly, helpful, and fun.

The family-run hostel has a solid reputation when it comes to customer service. Past guests report that hostel employees are friendly and fun, and more than happy to lend a hand be it morning, noon, or night.

Clean facilities in good condition.

According to reports, the hostel is generally kept clean and tidy, and is in a good state of repair. Past guests have been surprised to find that even communal bathrooms are kept clean.

Negative Reviews

Prolonged wait for bathroom at times.

American Dream Hostel features shared bathrooms on each floor. During busier periods, the wait to use the shower in these communal bathrooms can be a little longer than some would like.

Some temperature issues reported.

While rooms are equipped with air conditioning and heating, some guests find temperatures to be uncomfortable at the hostel. According to reports, temperatures can be too hot during muggy New York City summers, while some guests find themselves facing the cold during the winter months.

Stairs can be difficult to navigate with luggage.

The hostel is situated in a four-story tenement-type building with no elevator. Some guests find the stairs difficult to climb, particularly with heavy luggage, something worth considering if you struggle with mobility. Other guests happily report that employees are happy to carry luggage upstairs for guests.
