We had a good time at this hotel. Breakfast was basic continental but was great for our toddler to get fed before a day out in NYC. Room was pretty spacious, especially for NYC standards. They also brought up a crib for our toddler to sleep in which was great. Location was great. Close to metro and also close to some of the charming brooklyn neighborhoods.
