I stayed in one of the cabins. The size of the room is that of a small closet. Ear plugs are left on the bed because the walls are thin and the ceiling in your room is exposed to external noises. I am 5' 9'' and had to lay sideways so my feet didn't hit the wall. Locals refer to Bowery street as to where you can find the Bowery Bums. Literally on the street of Bowery next door to Bowery House you will find 10 or so bums sleeping. Some staying at the Bowery House.

All negatives aside, the hosts are extremely friendly and welcoming. If you are staying for no more than a couple of nights and do not have much to spend, this isn't an unbearable place to stay. It was a unique experience for me and that I will remember.
