This was the worst hotel or whatever they would classify itself as. The place only had 3 PARKING SPACES. They didn't have ironing boards and had to iron on the bed. Shower was small and they didn't provide any washcloths. TV worked on every station, but I couldn't hear the basketball games on TNT, because the sound for that station didn't work. I called down to the front desk and asked for someone to see about fixing the issue since I wanted to watch the basketball games. He came and tried everything and changed the channels and told me that "It was the only channel that wasn't working". In other words, watch something else! I asked about getting a new room or a reduction in my room. He said he would talk with management. The morning as I was checking out, I noticed something on the nightstand. The furniture was brown so I did pay a lot of attention to it. As I was moving stuff around I saw something else moving. THE PLACE HAD ROACHES RUNNING ON THE NIGHTSTAND. I went into the bathroom to brush my teeth, I dropped something on the floor. So I close the door to pick it up. On the back of the door, there were several names painted and scratched into the door like a dirty old style bathroom. I go to the office, which is in the basement to ask about getting my bill reduced and get a copy. I was informed that since I booked through Expedia, I would not get a copy of my bill. Nor would I get a reduced bill due to all the mishaps of such a POORLY RUN hotel.

Rooms were somewhat ok. Non smoking rooms became room for smoking. I’m a non smoker. Rooms are very expensive. I paid over $267. For stained towels and linen. Bed has on seems like white skin flakes, butt marks and cigarette burn marks. Called down to the receptionist. Nothing was done. Couldn’t sleep. I put a towel under the door to block the smoke. That didn’t work because it came thru the A/C unit. They do not care. Towels were so stained.

I had to keep asking the front desk staff to come and change the input on the television. Also, half the channels on the TV are either without audio, or no reception at all. If that we're fixed, it'd make the stay so much more comfortable and enjoyable.

It smelled like cigarettes on the non-smoking floor, the bathroom was dirty, and the TV was broken. I didn't expect the Ritz, but I was hoping to get slightly better accommodations for how much money I spent.

Was my first time in Brooklyn/NY. Maybe this is what you get at this price level. Smallest room ever and no closet, shower seemed unfinished, bed was old/lumpy. No where to put suitcase, so it has to go on 1/2 bed. Luckily it was a king.

The towels are not looked clean, the room was small, the parking was very small, the bathroom didn’t work properly, dining area wasn’t comfortable only two chairs and one little table. It’s took me a long time before I slept, my skin was itching. It was very expensive for the quality of services. I will never go to this hotel anymore.

when we came to check in there was nobody in the front and as soon as someone shows up to check us in immediately gives a horrible attitude toward us. we had to check out early at night did not stay in the room for more than an hour due to unhygienic and unpleasant environment blood stains and odors everywhere including on the sheets didn’t even sit on the beds. toilet paper was filthy brown hair on towels burn marks on sheets no parking whatsoever very unprofessional management do not know how this place is still open called to see if any type of reimbursement could be made since we barely even used the room and man on the phone was rude and was hard to understand but said no reimbursement could be made.

Place was ok. Only 4 parking spots available, even then there is no parking lot. Breakfast was a joke. It served the purpose of having a place to stay for 2 nights.

Sunset Park is an awesome neighbourhood and the staff was good. We got checked in very easily and quickly. However that’s there the positives end. The room was dusty, there were fly larvae in the shower, there wasn’t a single closet, drawer for clothes, or even a small table to put our suitcase on.

The Rooms which are advertised as non smoking smell like marijuana and cigarettes. I was given a new room and problem persisted. I was with my 1 year old aside from being pregnant. I was not able to sleep. The response was “this is a non smoking facility, but guests break the rule, and the smells travel trough the vents”. The staff was pleasant and I was able to cancel the second stay. I had to book elsewhere.
