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.

Quiet cozy friendly hotel a quick hop to the city
We really enjoyed this cozy boutique hotel. Friendly staff. Quiet and comfortable, with quick ride by Lyft or subway to sights and sounds of NYC (without the noise and bustle when you want to sleep!). There are only a few rooms per floor -- felt like a private apartment. A corner deli about 50 feet from the door, which was handy. The room could use a few more outlets next to the bed and maybe a few more amenities in the kitchenette. But otherwise a great stay.

Great stay! Very walkable to several subway train stations and in a nice area for the immediate radius of the hotel. Staff was super friendly and accommodating. The room felt more like an apartment than a hotel room, which was extremely comfortable and what we were hoping for!
