The hotel had no hot water when we stayed at the end of December. The hotel could have emailed to inform guests but did not -- only telling guest upon check in. Compensation was just a waiver of the $28 resort fee. Will never stay at this hotel again.

Room was clean and enough room for a short stay for 2 people. The bed was firm but WAY TOO BOUNCY. Anytime one person would get in and out of the bed. The other person would go bouncing up in the air. Not good if you are not a very deep sleeper. Also lots of noise from outside, which is to be expected on such a busy street. They only gave you one roll of toilet paper and there was a sharp protrusion from the wall where there should have been a magnifying mirror. The doors are incredibly heavy, there are two sets, and nobody helps you in or out or over opening the door with all your luggage. I was concerned if somebody was elderly how that would work. There’s just one person standing behind the desk and they just watch you struggle. It is a basic no amenity stay.That being said very inexpensive for Brooklyn.

I was disappointed in the experience of this hotel for the price point. The TVs did not work for the first 3 nights of my stay. The shower flooded the bathroom floor upon use every time. The hotel promised to reimburse some expenses due to the TV issues they had. However they have not followed through and are no longer responding. I think there are better hotel options for the rates they are charging. Would not choose to stay here again.
