  : Location is close to 3 different metro/train stations and takes cca 10mins to get to each of them. Breakfast was pleasant surprise for us and was great meal to start a day. And its free! People in kitchen were friendly and polite. Room had everything we need and was cleaned on daily basis. Clean and nice for every day stay.
  : It you are located on train-rails side, you might hear noise from trains depending on how deep you sleep. I guess the other side is much quieter. Also, towards Hunter Point station some folks are strange but that has nothing to do with hotel.

  : Hotel was easy to find (but a long walk with suitcases through a bit of a sketchy neighborhood). Lobby inviting once we got there. Room clean & tidy, nice view. (Although was lacking amenities). Nice grab & go market in lobby, fairly well-stocked. Nice room on top floor for bfst, and it looks like they may be adding a rooftop bar!
  : Front desk clerk not friendly or particularly helpful. Did not offer any hotel info or give us breakfast vouchers, which caused problems the next 2 mornings till we got wise and asked for them from a different desk clerk (who said we shouldn't need them -- someone needs to tell the servers that). Hotel still had Covid signs in place, and breakfast protocol seemed a hangover from that, where it wasn't a buffet but was cooked to order. Very inefficient. Elevator incredibly slow & rickety. Shower was but a trickle and there weren't enough towels, took 2 requests to get more. Lots of train noise all night long. You are right on the tracks in some rooms. Had been led to believe surrounding area was bustling but it was a bleak warehouse district, a bit sketchy at night. It was only 2-3 subway stops from Manhattan but felt much further away...and not in a good way.

  : The room was exceptionally clean and the staff beyond friendly. But what sets this hotel apart is the incredible place for the great location, on the way to subway (number 7 and G are the closest) you literally find yourself in from of an amazing view of the Empire State Building. The location is unmatchable for the price, really. Two subway stops and you are in Manhattan, and quickly to Brooklyn as well. I was traveling alone (female) and I went to the hotel a few evenings alone from the subway and I felt safe. If you prefer, the city is obviously fully serviced by any possible car/cab service. Loved it!
  : Nothing, I liked everything.
