My stay was an extreme disappointment. The location is about 20min to the nearest subway. There are also no restaurants in the vicinity. In terms of the room itself, the hot water tap is extremely hot there is no medium temperature. The staff didn’t put extra toilet paper in the room. The towels are washed in detergent that made me extremely itchy. The property was a total rip off. Pillows are also uncomfortable. Stay away is my advice.

Affordable, easily walkable from public transit, short distance from dining and music in Williamsburg. The staff was friendly. The elevator needed some maintenance.

Ideal hotel
Great hotel! Situated in a very safe neighbourhood in Brooklyn with basic amenities minutes away. Subway into Manhattan is a 15 minute walk away, bus to Downtown Brooklyn is outside or you can walk 15 minutes to Clinton Hill / Forte Green where you will find lots of great restaurants, pubs and bars. The room was a great size and we even had a view of the Manhattan skyline! The bed was the comfiest bed ever and the towels were changed daily as well as them providing toiletries. The breakfast bagel was a nice touch, especially as you can take it to go. The staff were helpful and even leant us a socket adapter for our stay as we thought there would have been USB charging points so didn’t bring one - completely our fault and quickly fixed by the friendly staff!

The hotel was lovely, the staff were super friendly and the rooms were cleaned daily. Overall a fantastic experience. The subway is about 13minute walk away but the upside of being outside of Manhattan is that its nice and quiet at night.

Awkwardly designed room. Little or no supplies in room, including no glass or paper cups, no coffee maker. The breakfast served on the bottom floor was spartan; just coffee & juice and a plain bagel with cream, cheese

My stay at the hotel was ok. There were three issues. The first thing was in the bedroom there was only one outlet to charge my phone. The TV was only one side of the room which made it difficult see. Hotel initially told me check out would be 11am. However check out was 10am. This was a huge inconvenience

I thought the hotel was great. It was spotlessly clean, well maintained, and hotel staff went so above and beyond. Its not glamorous but it’s a perfectly adequate hotel in a quiet, safe neighborhood. I had to trek a bit north to the non-Hasidic part of Williamsburg to find food and drink (I’m gluten free so no bagels for me!) but I was within walking distance of several transit stations and I felt extremely safe as a woman travelling alone at night. It was a very cool experience in such a unique neighborhood.

Avoid this disheveled hotel
Hotel is in complete disrepair. My room was on the third floor but the elevators would not work correctly - it did this thing where you had to select another floor first and then would bring you to the third. It was confusing and annoying The fitness center of you want to call it that was tiny and dirty. The cardio machines were both broken. There were leftover popcorn and snacks from prior guests still in the cupboards I will not be back

Decent stay, I would stay again
The hotel provided a decent stay. I was able to get comfortable quickly. They conserve energy by leaving the air conditioning off and I did like that. The parking deck or garage they have was full by the time I arrived, but I was able to find parking on the cross street with no issue. When I left on my check out day, I did not stop by the front desk. I usually don't, I just leave as my stay has ended. Around 5PM, I received a phone call asking if I checked out. I thought that was kind of weird considering I left at 11AM and it was so late now, and was already in another state. I was not sure what happened there, but overall, I would stay again.

I was told to leave early instead of the promised checkout time, that was shown in the booking in Expedia App and confirmed by the receptionist.

Could have been 5 stars but…
This could have been a 5 star review but we subtracted two stars because -- at check-in they told us they had a "deal" to upgrade our room for $25 USD per night. We took that offer, only to find out upon looking online that it was not a deal -- I checked and saw that it cost $20 USD more per night on hotels.com, and on the hotel's website the upgraded room cost $24 USD more per night. The only reason we upgraded was because we thought it was actually a deal based on their word - but it was in fact just their regular price, and slightly more than if we chose the upgraded room on hotels.com.
