New York City may be the city that never sleeps, but finding a (cheap) place to sleep is difficult.
Accommodation in New York City is not cheap — and it is often difficult to find good deals.
That is (partly) by design.
There used to be many hostels in New York City, but the hotel lobby convinced the city to use an old law intended to block tenements and limit the number of people who could stay in a single room. Except for a few that were grandfathered in, this effectively closed down the majority of the hostels in town.
There are now only a few hostels remaining.
Demand exceeds supply.
Even though there aren't hundreds of hostels to choose from, there are enough to warrant a post titled "best hostels in NYC," so you'll know which are worth staying at (there are a few that are really terrible and to be avoided).
Q4 Hotel
Q4 Hotel is a recently renovated hotel/hostel with simple rooms, but the beds are comfortable and there is plenty of light. There is a pool table and table tennis in the common room, as well as a small kitchen for cooking. This Queens hostel is an excellent starting point for exploring one of the city's best food districts! It's a short walk to Queens Plaza station, from which you can take the E line into Manhattan.

NY Moore Hostel
This hostel is centrally located in the trendy, hipster neighborhood of East Williamsburg and offers a variety of nice amenities, including free street parking (which is rare in NYC). I also like how it's covered in artwork and graffiti, which adds to its beauty. The beds are mediocre, but it's a comfortable hostel to stay in.

Tons of free perks (free coffee/tea, free yoga, free parking)
Chill outdoor patio
Chelsea International Hostel
This is one of the city's largest (and most centrally located!) hostels. It is one of the city's first and features an outdoor courtyard, a dining area, and two kitchens. As an added bonus, all of the dorms have single beds rather than top bunks.
