Great Stay

Hotel was perfect. They were accommodating with my morning checkin request. Room was clean with a comfortable bed, cozy bathrobe and had a decent amount of space considering NY hotel sizes. I appreciate how they have water stations on every floor so you don’t need to run thru plastic water bottles. Location is great with lots of restaurants walking distance. Would stay again.

Pretty Penny

The rooms are very clean, arty interier and updated with nice amenities: robes, utensils, drip coffee, water pitchers for fresh water (in lobby/each floor), fresh oranges, yoga mats/rollers & many other great little touches! It is in a great location, many bars and restaurants in Williamsburg and their staff was attentive and personable. We needed the pull out sofa for our stay, and the staff had someone up to make up the bed before we made it upstairs. Loved the rooftop bar and restaurant for amazing views, drinks and tacos. Can't wait to return!

Williamsburg gem

For the small footprint of the room, it was very spacious and well planned. An actual bathroom with a door - in Williamsburg! And the shower had a door too… there was a sink in the main room, a kettle and the equipment you need to make a pour over coffee.. they’ve got a steamer in the closet so you can get those wrinkles out of the fine drip you will be parading around Brooklyn in. Great artwork and books in the room. I will stay here next time in BK if the rooms are as affordable as they were this time around. I spent 1 night, a Thursday.

Thoroughly enjoyed our last stay and came back! Our flight was delayed multiple times after checking out. We got our luggages stored while we relaxed, enjoyed food and drinks at the rooftop (one of my many favorites about Penny). TYVM.
