BUG review
Jazz on Lenox is a clean and well maintained hostel just a short walk to the 125 Street (2, 3) subway station. It is nicer than the other Harlem Jazz hotels and has common areas that include a lounge with a TV and internet access ($2 for 20 minutes; free Wi-Fi) plus a small courtyard and a small kitchen.

I was here in Aug 2006. The people are ok. We made a reservation for a 4-bed dorm, but was put in a 12-bed one. It's a really new place, hence most things work well. It's a pity there isnt an elevator, hence we had to carry our luggage up the steps to 4th floor *ouch*And also, one must note that it is located in Harlem, not the most interesting neighbourhood to be in, as far as I am concerned.
