Overall, our stay was wonderful…
very much like an apartment…we had a loft room with a terrace. The upstairs air conditioner emitted a lot of soot that
accumulated on the top of the dresser and on the floor. The room could use a
little paint refresh..…but was very clean.
Comfy bed and sofa bed…very nice bed linens. The staff was friendly and accommodating. We didn’t have breakfast there, but enjoyed coffee in our room…The Lincoln Market is close by
so we enjoyed picking up yogurt and fruit..to put in the refrigerator. It truly was like our own city apartment for the week….a very enjoyable stay!

Nice property Clean room. Just know that on the weekends there are usually weddings on property which can be very loud. The desk was nice enough to put us on a different floor than the wedding guests but the music from the venue was very loud very late. Also, room cleaning is very late if at all even with the clean room please sign out. I much prefer the sister property, Franklin House.

Everything about my stay was perfection. The staff was very friendly and attentive. The room was very comfortable - best pillows ever. The city view and balcony really helped to make the room a little more than a typical hotel room. Very well situated, easy access to the train or ferry, plenty of small shops and restaurants within a few blocks. Highly recommend it.

This hotel is fantastic. I lived in NYC for over two decades and now need a place to stay periodically when I visit. This will be my go-to spot to book. The block is lovely with lots of beautiful flowers and landscaping, the property is well-maintained, the vibe is relaxed and the rooms are comfortable. Also, I love their sister restaurant Madre and you get a discount there if you can remember to show them your card! Looking forward to my next visit.

There were ants in the room ( on the couch) which were crawling on me. However, they did move us and since I order the room from hotel.com the only available offered was a late check out. I guess it was alright. A discount or a discount on a future room would have been nice. The place was recommended by my cousin that lives in Brooklyn. If I would have booked from their site I would have gotten a discount or free night.

Great hotel. However, for an early check-in request for my elderly parents, they didn't accommodate. My parents who just flew in for 21+ hours flight, needed to rest so I requested for the early check-in (only an hour earlier than the regular check-in time).
It was not that the rooms were not available. It's just that the hotel management didn't allow. With an additional charge (1/3 of nightly charge) , I got the early check-in for my parents.

The hotel is located on a quieter street in Brooklyn, with a small grocery store located on the next corner. The decor in the hotel is fun and brightly decorated, lots of interesting art pieces.
We appreciated the comfortable bed in our room and beautiful city view. The restaurant/bar in the lobby offered coffee in the morning, and breakfast for a fee, which we didn’t have. Coffee was good.
Staff was friendly and helpful.

Me and my guest were given complementary breakfast passes for my birthday, which was a really nice gesture. However, when me and my guest went to see what the breakfast was the worker there singled me and my African American guest out about entry when another guest of another race just walked right in without questions. We just left without getting anything because of the lady's response I was not able to get her name.

Easy check in and very helpful and nice staff. I also appreciate their noise policy to help ensure everyone can get some rest. I have stayed in this hotel over the years and have seen it deteriorate, unfortunately. The price is fair for what you get: A nice, clean room and bathroom in a labyrinthian hotel that hasn't been updated in years. During my stay I had only hot water in the sink and shower, which was interesting. I think they're doing their best, but I would expect more for how hip Greenpoint has become.

Wanted to love this place but it was a fairly horrible experience. Super loud (wedding upstairs until 11am, cleanup w banging and crazy vibration until ~midnight, front desk staff diffident upon multiple complaints, no offer to switch rooms), old (audible) spring mattress, uncomfortably large, lumpy pillows, outdated decor in rooms (lobby cute as advertised), cheap styrofoam coffee cups in room, etc etc. I stay in lots of hotels and this place would just barely be worth it at 1/2 of what they charge. Hard pass, unfortunately :/

Not a bad hotel, but none of the streaming apps on the TV work.

This is unacceptable.

The room was medium-sized, clean, had a fridge, tv and a balcony. In the cold weather, the room was appropriately heated, and the temperature was able to be personally operated. Staff were helpful and polite the entire time. The breakfast was a standard American breakfast and a great value for money. The location was close to subway links and in a great area for independent bars, Pilates classes, and low-cost restaurants. Overall, it was a great stay and would only go back if I wanted to be outside of the main city for a different vibe.

Nice place but the floors must be really thin and you could hear people moving what sounded like chairs screeching across a wood floor every night at like 2:30am. Oh and this isn’t their fault but fyi make sure you aren’t anywhere close to a fire hydrant when you park because I know I was more than 3 feet from the one I parked next to because I was cognizant of it but had a $145 parking ticket on my car when I got back to it. Not sure how you dispute it…maybe bring a tape measure with you and take pictures and attach them to the violation they send in the mail. Definitely hard to dispute it when you are from Ohio and just there for a couple of days to enjoy the Christmas season. I still love NY and I guess I felt like a real New Yorker and probably sounded a bit like when I got my present from the wonderful parking police. They sure didn’t have to take any pictures showing my car within 3 feet but I guess Merry Christmas New York.🎅

I booked the Valentine’s Package and it was worth every penny. From the moment we walked in, the room was excellent and the atmosphere was perfect for a special night.A huge standout was the dining experience. The food at the restaurant was incredible from the dinner to the breakfast (pot roast over mashed potatoes and the chicken quesadillas are a must-try). I also have to give a special shout-out to the bartender, an Irish gentleman who makes the meanest, strongest Old Fashioned I’ve ever had.
The attention to detail made this a truly special night that my partner will never forget. We will definitely be back. Thank you for making our Valentine’s Day legendary.

There's also a nice wide ledge in the shower to keep shampoo and other shower products if you're the sort to bring your own, which I am. The staff was very friendly, and the lobby is large with plenty of comfortable places to sit and wait if you need to. Short walk to plenty of restaurants, and a handy supermarket one block away.

Our friend group had a great stay at The Box House Hotel. The deluxe suite with two bedrooms provided lots of space for us to spend time together, with comfortable seating and a well appointed kitchen area. The 2 bedrooms, one king bed, one queen, were nice with comfortable beds. We were cautious about the spiral staircase to get down to the bathroom, especially at night. We enjoyed the restaurant, had great breakfasts, and a good time in the bar one evening. Staff were all first rate, and rooms were in good condition and clean.
