"Handy hotel near Downtown Brooklyn & public transit. Best for solo travelers."

9.0

Convenient location near downtown Brooklyn attractions. Easy access to public transit. Clean and well-kept hotel, no frills but comfortable. Coffee maker and mini-fridge in the room, and a free grab-and-go breakfast. Mostly recommended for solo travelers, the rooms are really small and wouldn't be ideal for families.

I don't really have any complaints. The rooms are very small, but that's to be expected.

"Per dormire ok"

6.0

Ottima posizione e prezzo Buon impianto di riscaldamento Ottima per chi sta tutto il giorno fuori e non gli importa dell'hotel

Stanza molto piccola e stretta senza spazio per i bagagli grandi Letto comodo ma praticamente incastrato tra due pareti Asciugamani con capelli ...

"Great budget friendly option if you only need the basics."

8.0

This is a great stay for the price. Easy check-in and check-out. Decent sized bathroom with hot water and a good heater in the room for NYC’s cold weather. It’s also located just around the corner from the NYC metro, so it was super easy to get to Manhattan and all the major NYC tourist attractions. There was a nice TV with access to all the major streaming services too. Very good budget friendly option, but you get what you pay for in terms of size.

The elevator smelled like smoke, but the room didn’t, so that was nice. The room was so small that the door hits the bed and doesn’t open all the way. I’m only 5’1” and not that heavy, but if you are a plus sized or very large traveler, you might have a hard time fitting through the door and around the bed. There also was no iron or ironing board in the room. Still a good option for solo travelers on a budget.

"Thin walls — noise from nearby rooms and the hallway late at night disrupted sleep."

2.0

Easy check-in and check-out.

The walls are extremely thin. Noise from the neighboring room and hallway started around 12am and continued for several hours. By 3am and 6am, another guest confronted them due to the ongoing disturbance. Even when things quieted down, muffled voices from the next room were still clearly audible.
