The staff was accommodating to hold our bags before and after check in and check out. They cleaned our room nicely after the first day. They provided various amenities including an extra set of bedding, toiletries, silverware, dining set, ice, and water with fruit. Overall, nice stay for two nights.

2bed room well appointed and big. Bathroom was roomy. Lobby was inviting. The art room in back was spacious and quiet. Very clean and well kept. Good selection of food, coffee close. MTA/Queens plaza was 5 block walk. I will definitely revisit The Modernist on my next visit. Neighborhood is walkable, quiet and safe. Very pleasant.
