I stayed in the Queen room which is small but the pictures were accurate and the cost of it is a good value. Would suggest not be close to the elevator-as it borders some rooms and noisy

I love how courteous and friendly the staff is. Their breakfast has a limited selection of items but it's ok. Maybe they should add peanut butter packets and bananas. . Its a top selectionwhen I go to NY.

Good stay
Clean little hotel but the proximity with the highway makes the noise unberrable. Bring Ear plugs to be able to sleep. The hotel has no parking. Security is tight though. New sheets are needed.

I stayed here for over 3 days and the entire staff have been really wonderful and catered carefully to my concerns. The on the go breakfast is such a great touch ! This area is also filled with both walking and driving distance of less than 10 min restaurants, cafes and bars. I personally met the manager Sam who is very patient and hands on at this hotel. The area also has public transportation within walking distance which is also very helpful. I truly appreciate my stay and definitely recommend this hotel to anyone.

The staff are very nice and helpful; however, the property is located next to a very busy and noisy highway. Also the cleanliness is questionable there was hair left in the shower from a previous guest and the shower floor has crud on it. The water pressure is quite low on the 4th floor.

Worst hotel ever. Within 24 hours I needed 4 new key cards to enter my room having to go up and down the stairs in frustration since the elevator is the slowest in the city. NO hot water, no TV (the few channels I did have dissapeared for good the 2nd day) Trash pickups at 11pm. I'll stop here by saying I left a day early w/out asking for a refund just to get out.

This hotel is in a sketchy noisy area, literally screaming and banging in the middle of the night. But worse for me was how dirty the thotel on was. It looked like it hadn’t been vacuumed in ages. Stains on the walls, shower flower was filthy, bathroom was dirty, bugs in the room. No thanks.

Check in delayed due to computer issues. Found silverfish in sink and shower. No chair in room. Can only sit on bed. No clothes hanging capability and no dresser. Water in evening only Luke warm. Ok in morning. Coffee maker missing coffee holder part. 10 lanes of traffic outside my window and not good sound insulation. Cold in front of window. Would never stay there again!!!

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
There was dried paint all around the room including the counters, floor, and curtains. Some of the sink paint was gone by the end, just from washing our hands. The counter had sharpie on it. There were dead bugs in the light fixtures, but thankfully no bugs on the floor, bed, etc! That was the only reason we stayed. The staff are polite, but we had an odd first night where the guy took us up to our room to "make sure nobody was in there"???? What does that mean? It was 9pm... It was less than 10 mins walk to the train and there's lots to see around the hotel. Fine to stay if you're on a budget, but if you can afford it then definitely choose somewhere else in Brooklyn!

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
We were shocked when we walked into the lobby. The web pictures are very different than reality. Our room was wicked small, very noisy from traffic outside. We took the desk chair and put it upside down over the nightstand to give us more room to get around bed to go to the bathroom. The bed frame stuck out beyond the mattress and we were afraid we were going to cut our leg.the bathroom was small, the shower smelled like mold and there was no hot water. The black & white tile in the hallway was not pleasing, soothing or attractive. Breakfast was lame. Tea bags would have been nice. Maybe when the renovation is complete some of this will improve. We were in 204.

Find somewhere, anywhere else to stay!
Very disappointing. The hotel was so hot I drank over 24 ounces of water and got up 3 times to run cold water over my wrists to get through the night. Thermostat in the room was a joke. Instead of the breakfast promised they gave a brown bag with a granola bar, potato chips, 2 cookies, peanut butter crackers, and a bottle of apple juice that had been opened! The desk clerk could not answer my question about whether parking across the street from the entrance was legal. I had to track down a staff person to find a chair for the desk. Cleaning supplies and boxes cluttered hallways. Take this one off your list!
