I stayed in the basement and had absolutely no cell service. Not sure what can be done about that but I had to go out into the hall to make a phone call. Otherwise I would have given 5 stars.

Resort fee is a bit too much. Especially if only two small bottles of water offered at check in. Kitchen is missing microwave, potholders/oven mitts, ice tray to make ice in freezer. Location is perfect. Too bad restaurant Madre only open Wednesday-Saturday.

Great room in Brooklyn!

Stayed at this hotel for a wedding we had to go to in Brooklyn. It was super spacious and overall a nice hotel. For NYC, we were shocked with how much room we got, and we didn't even get any crazy fancy suite. The staff was really nice to work with and the hotel was in walking distance to the subway, which was great. The area around the hotel was nice. Heck, the groom of the wedding was regretting not booking with this hotel due to the sheer size of the suite for the price.
