Recent Candy Hostel Review: "We were very happy with our stay here. The employees were friendly and helpful. Subway stop very close on 96th. Other amenities such as a drug store, coffee shops, etc were near by. Being New York we planned on staying out all day and night and only needed a place to crash so the hostel works out great for that kind of need. One note is the address is not correct, it is not located on 95th but rather it is on 94th and there is no hostel sign just look for a green awning with 316 on it."

  • A short guide to Upper West Side

    Some bemoan that the Upper West Side has become a version of the Upper East Side. Case in point: Columbus Circle’s Time Warner Center, one of New York’s priciest real estate. The Upper West Side includes the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, the American Museum of Natural History, and Columbia University. Harlem, the legendary African American neighborhood, lies north and caps Manhattan.
