Best in Brooklyn

This is one of the best hotels we've stayed in in Brooklyn and we will definitely return. Friendly and helpful staff, clean rooms with ample amenities and a free breakfast that was simple but offered a wide variety of items. NU Hotel offered a great experience at a reasonable price.

The cons outweigh the pro. Book as last resort.

First the con. They ran out of toothpaste for the whole hotel. Some of the linen were not washed. The breakfast lady has an attitude and no social skills. No microwave in room. Breakfast area is cramped. No bag in trash bin. We booked for 3 people but only received items for 2 people. The pros. The room was larger than expected. Bed was firm. Close to downtown Brooklyn .

My room was supposed to have a fridge and it did not. When I inquired about it, I was told they were out and I could move rooms the next day if I needed one. Also, no robe in the room and the air conditioner/heater was not great.
