For my purposes, the location was key. My room was very clean and spacious. I wish there was bathroom counter space. The front desk staff were very nice and helpful. I feel the lobby could use a little renovation.

Very comfortable accomodations. Down side, no breakfast or coffee available. The room had an efficiency kitchen, but who wants to cook when they are away. May be great if you have kids but you have to leave the property of essentials

When I arrived to check in I was told my room wasn’t ready. Check in was at 3 and I had an appointment at 4 so I had a very small window to get ready. I was told they didn’t know when my room would be ready but if I wanted to upgrade for $75 I could get into a room immediately. I asked since my room isn’t ready the could they just put me in that room. She said no. I reluctantly paid the $75 so I could get ready for my appointment. I was asked what floor I wanted to be on. They obviously had multiple rooms available. I will never stay at this hotel again. They ripped me off.

Staff were super friendly and the size and space of the rooms was so much better value than many other hotels I've stayed at in the city. Some great local bars and food options available within walking distance too.

Very nice large room. Very clean. Staff seemed new, inexperienced. Charged me a fee that I had already paid. Still waiting for the credit. Saturday night in the bar restaurant below, the music was loud thumpa thumpa until 11:30 at night.

Location where there are lots of restaurants and close to other areas in Greenpoint And Williamsburg. Price is good for NY and size. The lobby and hallways should be refurbished to be 5 star. Also the shower is in the bathtub which is more inconvenient for older people (over 60).
