Enjoyed our stay here on the second floor. Room is small but that's NY for you. The standing shower…read morewas great and the water got really hot. Breakfast is available everyday and serves as great fuel to start the day. Downstairs has so much to offer from a pool table to various board games and books. This hotel is unique and very chic, would def stay again here at Tru by Hilton Brooklyn. The staff was kind, they allowed us to stow our luggage before leaving which was helpful.

Everyone has their own experiences but I was really shocked at the low rating that this hotel…read morereceived . It's in a perfect location in Brooklyn that's not too far from the subway. There's plenty of food spots around & it was very clean. The staff was welcoming. Our room was clean.. smaller than most but that's what you're gonna get in NY typically. Big enough for 2. I think that it was build within the last 5 years which it still shows. The hotel has continental breakfast which was decent. I liked that they had chicken sausage. My only gripe would be that it is replenished a bit more throughout the time frame. I personally loved the work space down below in the cellar area. There is a patio for relaxing and people watching . The bathrooms downstairs weren't that cleaned & needed tended to which I noticed hadn't been done in 2 days of my 3 day stay. The staff was also nice enough to store our luggage while we waited for our plane.

The staff was great - big kudos to Stan - he really made the stay memorable! Great location for…read moreaccess to Park Slope area visit. And we were able to park in their lot all weekend - big plus! It is a small lot, and first come, first serve. The room was small, but plenty for our needs, and very clean. The bathroom door was interesting - sliding glass that would stick a little, but not really a problem. The labelling on the AC unit needs a little repair, but we were able to figure it out. We did not go out on the tiny balcony, and I would definitely not take children out there. All in all, we were very happy with the experience and the price. We would definitely stay there again.

BEDBUGS! Stay away from Hotel Le Bleu…read more I stayed here during my trip to Brooklyn and woke up in the middle of the night itching like crazy. Shortly after that, bites started appearing all over me, and the itching has lasted nearly two weeks. This was the only hotel I stayed at while I was in Brooklyn, so I am about 99% sure this is where it happened. I reached out to management to report what happened, and they never even bothered to respond. Their complete silence gave me no confidence that they took the complaint seriously or investigated the room before allowing another guest to stay there. I have been watching my clothes + sheets vigilantly since returning, because I'm paranoid that I may have brought bedbugs back with me. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone - do yourself a favor and stay somewhere else.

Nice place. Very clean…read more A little disappointed because I picked it because it said it had available parking to guests. It did say first come serve, but I didn't realize they only have four spaces. So I called and the front desk person was just like yeah none available. I was like ok well is there a garage around somewhere? She couldn't help me. I pulled over and look at a map. I see there is one a block away. The actual place is solid. Layout is cool. Dishwasher, fridge, microwave. 2 tvs. This is high class stuff.

I travel for a work a few times a year, and I'm always amused when my co-workers tell me, "Oh…read moreJames, you're so 'Lucky' that you get to travel." Yeah..."lucky." That's what I am. Anyone's who's had the pleasure of engaging in business travel knows that it's long hours getting to and from the job site, not eating Michelin star meals but more often at chain restaurants, and of course, not staying at the Ritz Carlton...but at places like TownPlace Suites in Brooklyn. I just finished up a multi-week stay here for a big project. It wasn't terrible; but also not amazing. I'm a Marriott loyalty member, so I try and book at these properties if given the choice. Located in the Gowanus/Park Slope neighborhood, it is conveniently located a 2-3 min walk from the Union Street MTA stop; which is good since there really isn't a lot of parking associated with the hotel. The Good: * Central location - My NY office was near the Barclay's center, so I walked daily to and from the hotel. And it is within a 15-20 min of the always Park Slope neighborhood replete with trendy restaurants and shopping. And being near a MTA stop is a HUGE plus since it also made getting to NY Penn station easier. * Included breakfast - It's not anything fancy, but it's nice not having to spend any Per Diem on breakfast. Surprisingly, the coffee is flavorful and strong. In additon to dairy creamers, non-dairy (Oat and Soy Milk) creamers are also provided. Otherwise, it's the usual assortment of pastries, cereal, and hot items like sausage/bacon, powdered eggs, etc. Again, nothing fancy but it's nice at 6:30am to just hop on the elevator and be able to grab breakfast without having to leave the hotel. * Room layout - Upgrades to this property include Container Store branded Elfa shelving in the closet. This proved more helpful that I thought since I was able to place my roller bag at waist level for easy sorting; and hanging suits and other clothing was convenient. As usual, for business travelers, an iron and mini-ironing board are also provided. Bathroom was clean and the shower had good water pressure with wall mounted body wash, shampoo/conditioner. Kitchenette with microwave and sink was also handy. You can request a mini-induction cooktop if you want to prepare any food. * Daily housekeeping - This "perk" seems to be rapidly disappearing across hotels. It was nice to have housekeeping refresh towels, come back to a made bed, and trash emptied. * Fitness center - I used it a few times. Treadmills, stationary bikes and some weights. Not bad if you want to get a workout in. The Bad: * Thin Walls and Door - Many reviews note the "paper thin walls," and I agree with that assessment. As referenced, this is not the Ritz Carlton, so don't be surprised if you "accidentally" overhear your neighbors convos if they're speaking loudly. The hotel has a "quiet hours" policy between 10pm-5am, but I can attest that several nights, inconsiderate guests returned around 1-2am and were quite rowdy which I'm sure awakened everyone along the hallway. * Loud HVAC unit - more and more hotels are switching to the "invidual window HVAC units." I get it. Installing central air heating and cooling units in each room is cost prohibitive. But these window A/C units are so loud that it makes sleeping difficult * Transitional neighborhood - The immediate area is "safe," but a few nights when my colleagues were walking back from the Union Street MTA, there is currently an empty lot where there were some "questionable" people hanging around...and I'll leave it at that. I'm sure in another 3-5 yrs, a high rise selling million dollar condos will be erected. This is NYC, so don't be shocked by the prices. I paid the corporate rate, so my pricing is not representative for what a "regular" customer would pay. TBH, for downtown Brooklyn this TownPlace Suites isn't bad.

Part of the IHG brand…read more Quality/Quantity - A clean safe location. Close to many amenities, transportation, etc. The room was of decent size. Had an in room safe and coffee machine. We did NOT use any of the amenities. Basically we just used the room to sleep. No fridge, so we could not stock up on local beers, lol. Ambiance - Decent size hotel. Gym, conference room, wifi, restaurant/bar, market place (small convenience shop), daily house keeping, pet friendly (with restrictions and additional deposit), smoke free, etc. Open 24/7. No pool. Parking in nearby garages starting at $55 a day. Service - Okay. Complimentary flavored water, coffee, and tea in the lobby. Nice "outdoor" sitting/lobby area; see picture. Packages and promotions available; see their website. Price - $215 a night, NY prices. Not inexpensive, but also not a great value. We are paying for the location. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success.

The good things about this hotel are that it has a nice location: you can walk to a number of bars,…read morerestaurants, landmarks and the sub way is close. The staff are friendly and professional. The room is well soundproofed. I'm a light sleeper and did. Or hear any noise so that was a major plus. The things that need to be improved: the rooms and the common spaces feel tired and in need of updating/renovations. You do not get the feeling of comfort. The mattress was a little too soft for my liking. Overall, the room is of a decent size and not a bad place for the size. It's clean enough and if you're not looking for luxury or great comfort, this is a good option.
