A Warm Welcome
Advantages: good location, friendly staff Disadvantages: limited facilities, small, no disabled access
The Chelsea Star Hotel is situated on the corner of 30th street and eighth avenue in Manhattan. It is quite a small hostel with dorms as well as single and double rooms which are all custom designed. The bathrooms are nice and the place is always clean but there is nowhere to sit and relax - something you long for when you are staying in a dorm. There are phones, an internet machine and a coffee machine and good tourist information.

The Chelsea Star Hotel is situated on the corner of 30th street and eighth avenue in Manhattan. It is quite a small hostel with dorms as well as single and double rooms which are all custom designed.

Advantages: Fab Location, very helpful staff. Disadvantages: Small Rooms, No Communal area.

The room was a crowded 10-bed doom with me on a little put up bed ... ...I found the Chelsea Star very clean, with very friendly staff in a top-notch location. However, I used the Hotel as a Hostel staying in a dorm room and there for purely sleeping had I of booked expecting a hotel I feel my experience would have been somewhat different. ...
