Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
A clean, quiet, comfortable, and beautifully designed room and hotel! I loved my stay and only wish I could have stayed more nights. Prime location in the heart of Williamsburg/adjacent to Greenpoint, within walking distance of so many great restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, and bars — and close to transit too! The view from the rooftop bar was an added bonus, and I can't wait to stay at Penny again.
