Summary of reviews

Guests say
Guests consistently praise the hotel's excellent location, making it ideal for exploring the city and convenient for travelers who mainly need a place to sleep and shower. Many reviews highlight the value for money, especially for New York. However, frequent complaints include high noise levels from heating systems and other guests, basic or lacking amenities, cleanliness issues in shared bathrooms, small room sizes, and unfriendly or unhelpful staff. The gym and wellness facilities are appreciated by some, but overall, the hotel is best suited for those seeking a simple, centrally located place to stay rather than a comfortable or luxurious experience.

Pros (+) I choose to stay at Vanderbilt YMCA because it is so convenient and yet does not cost hundreds of dollars a night.
Cons (-) After staying there several times over the past four years for up to a week at a time, I may change my mind if the quality continues to decline. Each time I've been, the services have gotten worse. I'm not talking about the 25 year old TVs that are so big they are a predominate feature in the room nor am I talking about the creakiness of the bunk beds when you turn over at night, nor the carpet th...

Anonymous, May 2017
Pros (+) I liked the in-room fridge, the proximity to the subway, and the workout facilities. These were the best things about the place.
Cons (-) I didn't like that the staff puts men in rooms next to the women's bathrooms and showers. I also really didn't like that the women's shower room didn't lock properly, which left women vulnerable during their shower time. I checked out after one night because that made me very nervous. The cleaning staff was loud, the front desk staff didn't care about the lock on the shower room door, and only one...
