Great hotel near J and L train in Brooklyn. Staff were very friendly and courteous. Our King room was comfortable and clean with good amenities provided. The restaurant in the cellar had a decent breakfast menu and we ate breakfast every day of our stay. The only downside was trying to find coffee in the early morning before the restaurant opened. On weekdays we found a couple of coffee shops nearby but on the weekend the nearby coffee shops didn’t open until 8:00 am.

We were visiting Brooklyn for the first time and this was a perfect spot for us. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean, and on arrival I asked for a quiet room and they accommodated my request with no hesitation. The rooms come with complimentary water, wine, coffee and chocolates as well as lovely lotions and if you need anything else it’s a phone call away. We were able to walk into Williamsburg and feel safe with no issues and lots of great coffee shops and cafes on the way. We will be coming back!

The room was nice, we loved the black out curtains which meant we could sleep in. Even with our room facing the street it wasn't too noisy. The staff were all so helpful and friendly. Especially at the reception and in the restaurant, everyone was so nice it really made our trip more enjoyable!

Great boutique hotel in a good location and excellent staff. It would have been nice if breakfast started earlier plus they did not have some menu items available for the week. Nice touches with the water bottles and complementary wine.

Was attending a conference this week and wasn’t able to use the amenities of the hotel but the staff was very nice, no big issues other than a lack of parking space but I was lucky enough to get a street parking space so I definitely recommend to save money for Ubers unless you park in a nearby garage

overall the hotel is great, its modern, the food downstairs is good, it’s only a 20 min train ride into Manhattan and in a good area in Brooklyn. They just need to have a little more attention to detail when it comes to cleaning the rooms after every guest.

The room is mostly clean, and staff was friendly. The breakfast was Ok, but the waitress disappeared for a while at peak time. The location of the hotel is good, a short walk away from the metro station. The room was surprisingly quiet at night despite its closeness to the metro line.

We would definitely stay here again. The beds were comfortable, it’s spacious and clean. The location is perfect. However, the lower level bar/Café Black bird leaves a lot to be desired. Admittedly, it’s considered a separate business however they are attached. Every time we went down there it was like we were there first customer of the week. Although the people there were nice, the food was not good and you waited a very long time. The hotel does not have coffee so you have to go downstairs to this bar/café and pay four dollars per cup of coffee each morning. We tried to get food there, but apparently they don’t serve food until Wednesday
