Cutely styled and very convenient hotel. The room was quiet and well-decorated, and felt more like a home than a hotel. Huge window with a great view of the courtyard. There were tons of terrific details, and the roof lounge space and patio are spectacular. Just some damaged (stained) carpets in the hallway were a distraction. Fun and charming.

10/10 Exceptional

Very convenient hotel in Williamsburg. A few blocks away from the Bedford Av subway station, but quiet enough to get a good night's sleep. Room was great, nicely set out considering the space. Only criticism I would have (very small thing) is that there is no decent counter/ledge space in the bathroom to put your toiletry bag.
