ZIP112 Hostel

Kitchen was good, shame it was too cold for barbecues on the roof terrace with the greatest view ever. This must be awesome inside the summer. Setting was good. It&'s a tiny hostel; only 10 beds (2 * 4 female dorm + double room) so at times I felt like there were not enough individuals to hang out with at night, but this changed over the time I stayed there when other girls arrived. At times it felt like we were all sharing an apartment. The location is perfect, near to the subway, near to Manhattan and right inside the middle of the hippest location of Brooklyn. Could not have wished for anything more.

Loved the location - in Williamsburg, a quiet and interesting enclave in Brooklyn. The owner, Young, was very useful and kept the location clean and tidy. It felt secure, there was no cost wireless and a fantastic balcony region to relax out in. No cost breakfast of Cheerios a bonus too.

Couldn&'t get a greater place for Williamsburg - inside walking distance to everything (loads of bars/shops/cafes, and also the East River at the end of the road), and a 5 minute walk to the subway to get to Manhattan and other parts of New York.

It was like being at home, it was like living in a flat/share home with friends, plenty of space, chill out area, cooking area && was a fantastic environment. A nice way to meet some similar people && not crowded with randoms!

Gave me the feeling of living in a massive apartment together with the other roommates. The nice setting made me feel very comfortable and welcome. Young, the property owner has arranged everything very well. ZIP 112 is situated in the center of hip Williamsburg- superb for eating, drinking, shopping and individuals watching.

Very nice accodation would definitely stay there again. It is effortless to catch the subway into the city. It is also in a very nice area. Young was a excellent host and would suggest staying here :)

Lovely, friendly feel to the location - it actually felt like our own flat for the time we were staying there. It was also really clean and properly laid out. Excellent points of interest over the water to Manhatten and really handy for subway into the city. Williamsburg itself is fantastic and the hostel is less than five mins walk from Bedford Avenue which has some fantastic little cafes and bars.

Staying at Zip is like living as a local. this is an unique experience to your stay in New York which perhaps wont appeal to some. the hostel is far more like sharing a large loft with people on the move. it is amply stocked with all that you will need. Young (the owner) is far more than happy to help you with anything you need or need to know and is incredibly accommodating. He only makes an appearance once a day to clean the place and then it is up to the residents to maintain the apartment. It has a lovely light throughout with a lot of space as nicely as the view of Manhattan is a nice touch. the location is fantastic - right inside the centre of a really chilled out hood. a lot of eateries, laundries, music venues, parks, cafes and cute little boutiques. You are away from the hustle and bustle of Manhattan but a water taxi ride away from reaching the financial location or upper east side. don&'t miss the food marketplace on a Saturday down by the water front as nicely as the flea marketplace on a Sunday. Enjoy your New York New York! Thanks for everything Young!

Liked the area at Willliamsburg, a short ferryboat ride, or subway ride to Manhatten. The area is being developed with parkland and new condos developing. Location is safe, five flights up.
