Marin (solo traveller)
stayed in December, 2025
Guest Score 8 out of 10
Very Good
This is a great stay for the price. Easy check-in and check-out. Decent sized bathroom with hot water and a good heater in the room for NYC’s cold weather. It’s also located just around the corner from the NYC metro, so it was super easy to get to Manhattan and all the major NYC tourist attractions. There was a nice TV with access to all the major streaming services too. Very good budget friendly option, but you get what you pay for in terms of size.
The elevator smelled like smoke, but the room didn’t, so that was nice. The room was so small that the door hits the bed and doesn’t open all the way. I’m only 5’1” and not that heavy, but if you are a plus sized or very large traveler, you might have a hard time fitting through the door and around the bed. There also was no iron or ironing board in the room. Still a good option for solo travelers on a budget.

Poor
Easy check-in and check-out.
The walls are extremely thin. Noise from the neighboring room and hallway started around 12am and continued for several hours. By 3am and 6am, another guest confronted them due to the ongoing disturbance. Even when things quieted down, muffled voices from the next room were still clearly audible.

All staff, from cleaner to hotel manager.comfortable beds & pillows. Shower. TV compatible smart view.
Fan too near from the bed and bed too high.

The most convenient yet quiet throughout evening and late morning. Best rest imaginable for NYC hotel

I stayed here for one night. The rooms are pretty small but they are as advertised so it was expected. The staff was friendly and the room was pretty clean. Overall I had a good stay and would return.

Location near Park Slope and Carrol Gardens was great—easy walking distance everywhere. Staff was very friendly.
It would have been great if the doors sealed to keep out light and noise from the hallway. The mattress was brand new but very firm.

The location is amazing, we stayed one night for a wedding and it was within the same block. We even found free street parking on the same street. It was clean but simple, basically a room with a bed and private bathroom. The bed took up 75% of the space in the room and was comfortable. It is what it is, for one night I would say it’s a much more affordable option than anywhere else in the area.
