"Location, location, location! Loved being able to access all that midtown has to offer. Was disappointed to have a room right next to the elevator due to noise from housekeeping and guests. We ended up calling the front desk one night because of slamming doors on the floor above us."

The lounge provided a nice vibe and area to eat and meet for drinks, however Friday and Saturday night got very loud.

"The view and location"

"It was NYC so we expected it to be expensive and cramped, which it was. The room was meh. Not great, not bad. The bed was too soft for our liking, but we like firm mattresses. We spent three nights and slept pretty well. The best parts were the location and roof-top bar. It is rated as one of the best roof-top bars in New York, and we saw why -- great views of Empire State and more. We would go back, but we wouldn't rush back."

"Very nice place to stay in the Brooklyn area "

"The room was a nice size. The hotel is very conveniently located for Penn station and subway stations. Some places are walkable. The room had not been cleaned when we arrived but they fixed that soon after. Everything was fine."

"Very clean and stylish hotel, reasonably priced, friendly staff! "
