If you like the hostel experience, The Local is a great choice. Prices are very fair, and the place itself is very nice with guest amenities. They also have more traditional rooms if you're traveling as a couple. They also have locked boxes in the rooms for you to stow any valuables. Very close to the trains, just a short trip over to Manhattan. The Local was everything I wanted out of an affordable hostel for solo travel - I stayed there for both my weekend trips to NYC!

Amazing place and surprisingly inexpensive for the location. My boyfriend and I had such an amazing experience here. We were provided excellent service from Matt and the other workers. The room was also great for the price. Very hip and modern and very artistic. We looooved the set up of the place and the warm hospitality. It was also located very close to the city and there are a lot of neighboring shop, stores, cafes, etc. We will definitely be staying here again.
I was asked to pay an addition fee of about 45% upon my arrival. I was told this was because I was coming in from a different state. I have no issues with this, however, I should have be notified before my arrival to make adequate plans. Also, they should not have accepted payments for a service they knew I would not be able to access without making an additional fee. When I request a refund, I was told that will not be possible. I would leave a zero star rating if I could. Horrible experience!
"Great spot helpful staff very friendly Amazing view very chill spot great value for shoot or honestly just to simply hang out with friends and order food on a nice day"
I really wish I booked The Local NYC for my entire stay. It’s a cool, fun and vibrant hostel. There’s a bar area to relax and socialize, there’s a designated reading area and access to computers and printing, a roof top with a really nice view and very clean rooms. The hostel is located from a 6 minute walk to the train station and is about twenty minutes or less by train to Manhattan and other areas. There’s also a couple cafes nearby. My only grievance is, if you’re like me and you packed heavy be prepared to haul your heavy load up a few flights of stairs. There’s no elevator. The staff is polite.
I was moving out of nyc and needed a place to stay to wrap up my loose ends. The location of the local is great, it’s close to a few subway lines and gantry state park. It was nice to have a kitchen and laundry room available. It’s a cool modified space with a beautiful roof view, but there’s no elevator up to the rooms. A few minor things, like my comforter zipper was broken and stained with washed out makeup when i arrived and my windows leaked when it rained. The staff was lovely, housekeeping was kind and gave me extra towels. Would stay again.
Loved staying here. Would definitely recommend. The view from the terrace is amazing. Price was very reasonable as there is very good connections via subway.
I’ve never been treated so badly by management as I was at this hostel. The lady at the front desk was very rude to me. I was sent a long email with procedures upon arrival, and forgot to go through with all the steps. As a result, she attempted to forcefully upgrade my room and charge me more than double what I had already confirmed because of “the global pandemic”. I was not notified of any of these extra procedures and she insisted that it’s my fault because I need to “do my research”. There was a drunk guy holding a four loko that kept following me around, I would’ve hated to share a room with him. Terrible experience here that really left a sour taste in my mouth.
