    The room was styled nicely, it was comfortable and the staff were great. I found it really easy to get to by train from JFK airport and found the neighbourhood nice and very accessible to the rest of New York. I was travelling solo and this was a much better option than the hostel styled accomodation in more central parts of the city.

    The hotel and the rooms were NOT clean. Upon my arrival, the room they gave me had long hair in the bed. The linens were either not washed, or not washed well. Although they subsequently attempted to move me, two OTHER different rooms that they tried to check me into each had hair in the beds and on the floors. I recommend inspecting each bed upon check-in. Noise is a problem. The doors are thin, and you can clearly hear things. In one of the rooms they temporarily had me in on the first floor, I could hear the pop music they were playing in the lobby all night. I could also hear staff moving around all night. On the upper levels, while I couldn't hear the lobby, one could clearly hear other guest through the doors. While staff attempted to remedy some of the situations, it was clearly an issue they had to fix things at all. Overall, this was an awful stay and I would recommend looking for other accommodations.

    The location was exactly what we wanted for our purpose, but the room smelled like cigarettes, and it was next to the stairs which had a door that closed really loudly. There were hairs left in the bathroom which were small and curly and not what you want to see when you’re staying somewhere. The staff was really nice from behind the bullet proof glass in the lobby.

    Hotel is surrounded by trash, the moment you walk out of it, its trash everywhere. Its right next to an empty lot that also is not maintained. The rest of this Street and the neighborhood as a whole was actually pretty clean.

    DO NOT stay here. The whole place is soulless, harsh LED lighting everywhere, smells like bleach. Extremely loud, paper thin walls. There was construction above my room starting before 8am, I needed to take work calls and the construction was so loud I had to leave a day early. I could never connect with a manager to discuss a refund, despite being told I'd be responded to multiple times by the front desk. Desk staff was nice enough, but I'm not sure a manager exists. DO NOT stay here.

    The door looked as though someone was forcibly trying to enter. It was broken outside and the hinge inside was almost off the wall. The room, although generally clean, had a weird smell. The bathroom was minuscule. The area is really sketchy I didn’t want to leave my car parked outside. A local flashed us! I felt really unsafe. We left after half an hour and checked in elsewhere.

    Location, for touring around Brooklyn. No closet in room. No hangers or pegs in room. No desk in room. No plug-ins near bed headboard to charge phone. Water discharge spout at hand washing basin pivoted up and out of base fitting. Ceiling light did not turn on. Plain bagels, ice water, coffee . . . Is not a breakfast, as implied by website. Promoted room rate did not include a $20 hotel service fee, which was not a govt tax, but a real part of the nightly room rate. Photos on-line do not correspond to room furnishings provided.

    This hotel was absolutely awful, especially given how expensive it was. The bed was the most uncomfortable I’ve ever experienced in a hotel—hard as a rock and left us both with back/neck pain. The room was so cramped and tiny we could barely move around the bed. Everything was broken/not working—the hairdryer, the iron, the TV, several of the plugs. I’ve never written a bad review of a hotel before but feel compelled to after this terrible experience. I would not recommend anyone waste their money here, ever.

    Room design is user unfriendly. Shelf on the wall is against safety code, projecting out at eye or head level. This can injure customers. The small sink in the bedroom can splash water everywhere in the room. Internet didn't work in most of time.

    Happy I only had to book this place for one night. The perfume they put in the air system is suffocating and smells like concentrated household cleaner. I left the next morning smelling like fabuloso cleaner because the perfume smell was so strong. The room renovations next door continued through the late night hours, so I had to blast a sound machine track to try to drown out some of the noise. The room was dusty. The size of the sink was laughably small. Overall, I can’t recommend this hotel to anyone, and I’m generally very easy to please.

    The hotel itself is budget friendly and the bed was comfortable. The hotel is situated in a residential neighborhood that many lovely brownstone houses. The only issue is that there are some low income housing projects nearby and some strange people (I never feel comfortable around people wearing hoodies over their head) occasionally wandering around the area but there is a security guard at the front desk 24/7. The free bagels during breakfast hours were delicious. Do bring ear plugs because the other guests tend to slam doors in the middle of the night.

    Not bad if you just need a place to sleep for a night or two. The photos felt a little misleading though, the rooms are much smaller and a lot more tired when you see them in person. The walls were very thin and you could hear people coming and going, or smell the pot they were clearly smoking in their rooms. It wasn't dirty, but things were a little scuffed and dinged up. Looked modern and new, but like it had lived a pretty hard life already. The staff were helpful and friendly however, and despite some of the guests being a little noisy they were all also in high spirits and friendly - so it all felt very safe. Overall, as a budget stay - this was pretty good. It was clean and safe, and that's all that really matters.

    Had a water leak and they soaked my clothes and damaged some of my property - and didn’t do anything to compensate me. They didn’t even dry the clothes that were soaking wet and no solutions for me. In addition it smelled like smoke every night and the beds were uncomfortable and weren’t flat so whenever you moved, the bed frame rocked like an uneven table at a restaurant.

    I understand that "resort fees" are a typical charge in NYC hotels. However; this is not the type of hotel that should be charging them and on the third party vendor site - which is normally excellent at identifying this - it was not clearly indicated in the cost. Cost was my primary reason for booking this hotel, so hidden additional fees are not ideal. The hotel is perfectly fine and functional, I like the NYC themed decoration, but it is pretty isolated in location and I think staying on the ground floor rooms would be very noisy.

    Noise will just be there for most older buildings without extra fancy glass and noise generators. Still, it's not such a popular street as to have cars and noise at all hours which is perfect. The rooms are all a little different in terms of size, but enough for two people to be able to sleep for up to a week or perfect for single person travel. No desk, no chair and just enough space to get dressed. All should be expected for the price.

The room is small and minimalist but has everything I needed for a restful stay. Bed was comfy and clean, AC worked great, the shower was perfect! The staff was kind and even put out hot coffee extra early in the morning for all the runners. They were also accommodating with late checkout in the morning.

    The room was awful. No room should be right next to the front desk or in the lobby. They put us in a room next to the front desk and lobby and you can hear everything. Every single conversation and people coming in and out of the building the walls are paper thin. We got a “two bed” room but really there was only a queen sized bed and a pull out couch. The bathroom sink is also really tiny and you can’t wash your face without water spilling all over the floor. I wouldn’t recommend booking here. They will charge you a $100 deposit that you get back after you leave. However, this wasn’t disclosed when I initially booked the hotel room. They also have snacks and water in lobby but you have to pay for it. $4 tax for a water bottle I could get at the nearby bodega for a dollar is robbery. Only good thing about this hotel is that it’s in a convenient location and only good for a 1-2 night stay. If you value your sleep, pick somewhere else to book a hotel room.

    As a Brooklyn native, I can say that this place really reflects the vibe of the good old days & definitely played a great part of making home feel like home. Yes, for visitors the neighborhood could be a bit cleaner but that's not the hotel's fault. I was greeted with a very warm hello and every staff member that I interacted with after that was great! I would love a microwave in my room but there was clearly not space for however I did found the downstairs lounge area to be quite quaint. I'd definitely stay again.

    The single person at the desk was indifferent, sluggish, and occasionally absent. There is nothing in the neighborhood but post-industrial decay. The hall carpet is stained with who-knows-what. Room floors are bare concrete. The a/c is a portable unit with an exhaust hose through the window. That said, the bed was clean and reasonably comfortable, the elevator didn't get stuck, the plumbing fixtures were new and functional, and nobody tried to break into our room. A hostel without the glitter.

I received a room upgrade (I didn't ask for it) which was great. The room was basic as described, but very clean. The bed was probably the most comfortable hotel bed I have ever slept in. I slept so soundly - the blackout shades were fantastic and the hotel was extremely quiet. The bagels in the morning were as described - fresh and delicious. The area seems to be an up-and-coming area with a lot of construction projects under way. Access to transit was quick and easy. The staff was super friendly and helpful. I really have no complaints at all.
