Very quaint and cute interior. My room was gorgeous and so was the view. There was a room that featured an artist’s work 24/7 that was super chill and I very much enjoyed my stay.

The lobby/recreation area is absolutely beautiful! Very quiet as well. The room itself was tastefully decorated, huge and convenient with a kitchenette, table for 3 and balcony. Probably the prettiest hotel we have stayed at and we are constant travelers. I would definitely recommend this hotel. There is a deli right on the corner, and many restaurants in the area. Finding parking on the street was easy. 10 stars!

My wife and I went to New York for my little vacation. We decided to pick the Modernist Hotel to stay. We stayed for 3 days and everything was so convenient. The hotel is close to the subway, and many different types of restaurants for us to choose from. Will do it again when we get back to New York.

Really liked the hotel. Room was very stylish - and large! And close to subway too. Not a lot going on near hotel but if you are happy to stay out of Manhattan would recommend.

The decor is unique. However, it is over priced, staff not flexible and a bit snobbish. No special perks to your stay. Curtains not long enough for windows. Had to walk with the curtains just to not be seen. Complimentary water 1/2 sized. $350 deposit for what! Wouldn't stay again. Had better experiences in Williamsburg hotels for the same price.

We had a very nice stay! The hotel was close to three or so different Subway stops that made it easy to travel around Queens and Manhattan. The deli nextdoor was also very convenient.

Only stayed one quick night but the room was nice and the bed was clean and comfy. I liked the decor and the balcony. The lobby was tiny, wish I had time to check out the art installations, the funky room behind the elevator looked cool.
