NY Moore Hostel

NY Moore Hostel is in East Williamsburg, east of the shops and restaurants around Bedford Avenue. Its main draw for budget-conscious travellers is a choice of dorm beds and private rooms. The property has a fully equipped kitchen, common room, lockers, a 24-hour front desk, complimentary coffee and tea, and subway access from Morgan Avenue. Its own guide puts the train ride to Union Square at about fifteen minutes; reaching Williamsburg’s riverfront, however, requires a subway trip or a considerably longer walk.

Guests often value the staff, cleanliness, spacious bathrooms and room to relax; those booking dorm beds also appreciate en-suite bathrooms within the dorm and lockers. The shared-room experience depends on your roommates, though: comments mention night-time noise, strong air conditioning and limited privacy, familiar trade-offs in a hostel. Private rooms are available, but compare their rate with a simple hotel and check which facilities are shared before choosing.

The hostel is at 179 Moore St, Brooklyn, NY 11206, near the Morgan Avenue station on the L line. The front desk operates around the clock; the accommodation listing gives check-in from 2 p.m. and check-out by 11 a.m. It suits solo travellers, groups and visitors willing to stay farther out in return for a kitchen, transit and a lower-cost bed; it is not the most central base for walking home from Domino Park or the East River waterfront.
