    Value for money

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The room was exceptionally spacious and the beds were clean and comfortable. The hotel had a great sense of historical Brooklyn, which added to its charm. Coming back to the warm and cozy room after a day of sightseeing in the winter chill was really nice. The TV and internet service provided were excellent, and the hotel also had a large selection of natural products to pamper yourself. The breakfast, ordered from a local bagel shop, had a great variety to choose from. The staff, especially the host George, was attentive and prompt in catering to any requests. a truly enjoyable and historical experience.

There was nothing I didn't like.
