Heat place with great people near everything you could ever need less than five min walk to the subway that will take you literally anywhere in or out the city. Only complaint was the pillows are small amd flat and when I asked for another pillow they said they didn’t have anymore to give out which I think should never be the case when staying somewhere. Kitchen does not have an oven fyi but they do give you a towel to use for showering. I would def stay again tho when traveling solo.

I loved the distance from the subway and the distance from Central Park! The staff was nice and they had a rooftop area and dining area to hang out in. They do have a "private shower" option that costs extra that isn't actually private but is a shower used by yourself and the others in the room as opposed to the one in the hallway used by the other guests.

Three blocks from the subway station and across the street from Central Park. I've stayed in hostels all over the world and I would say this is a pretty great one. It's definitely a hostel...but the location is amazing.

Overall I really enjoyed staying at Kama. The capsule bed gave privacy, with a private bathroom inside the room, and a another shared shower & toilet outside. There was a locker in the room. Stayed in the 2nd floor so didn't need to walk up a lot of stairs. The shared kitchen was a bit messy/dirty, but that's more up to the guests to make sure they clean after themselves. The location was great, with subway a few minutes away, and right next to central park. Will definitely stay again when visiting nyc.
