    This ghetto chateau is an absolute abomination. A scam and a sham. Reserve here if you have no standards. There are so many issues including the short list here: - several guests waiting to check-in upon arrival. - one lift for whole building. - funky smelling lobby. - stained towels. - stained sheets. - fridge and phone not working. - view of the literal projects next door. - no drinks for sale. - poorly finished rooms (paint job is trashy). - staff is not staffing much. - filthy carpets! - not enough "do not disturb signs" to hand out. Like how? Is anything good? Not enough to compensate. - bed is cozy - location is central in BK Do not support this with your hard earned dollars. They need to close. Pack it up and move tf on. 0 stars for this sh*t show hostel.

    Literally the only beverage option in the entire hotel. Note that there are no more cups.

    -our room had no toilet paper -our room had no soap -our room had non-working power outlets -the bedside lights are horrible, SUPER bright 5000K daylight LED bulbs (why) -the hotel has no food or beverages besides a dingy water machine in a cellar and a vending machine full of overpriced candy/chips -the water machine doesn't have cups to drink out of. Bring your own cup -the "breakfast area" is a sad underground cellar that seems to have been completely abandoned and forgotten about by management and currently serves no purpose other than storage -there are way better lodging options in the area for significantly cheaper This hotel is very clearly pinching pennies anywhere it can by cutting out essential guest toiletries/basic conveniences/complimentary necessities and it overall feels like a sad, empty building with zero hospitality that does a good job of looking cool and hip in photos. We actually have stayed here before (pre-covid) and the hotel had tons of creature comforts and even had craft beers that you could buy and take up to your room, and the common areas were actually really cool places to hang out and chill with fellow travelers. None of that was true this time. It now feels like a place that is under new management trying to turn it around financially by cutting out every expense that it can, or it's been run into the ground and last-ditch cost cutting efforts are in place to stop the bleeding. Something is going on here and it's not good. It reeks of a failing business or cheap owners who don't care about guest experience despite being in the hospitality industry. The rooms themselves are clean and decent enough, the beds serve their purpose, but it's a major red flag when you go to sit on the toilet and learn that you have to call downstairs for toilet paper, or go to wash up in the shower and squeeze the wall-mounted Dial soap dispenser and just get a puff of air instead. Not cool. Do not stay here, it is not worth what you pay (we were in at over $350/night and we were frankly extremely ripped off). We were super, super disappointed and will not ever come back unless reviews start coming in that signal changes being made. Avoid unless you have no other options. To the ownership: spend money on the guest experience. You *have* to invest in the guest experience. It's your livelihood. Your business lives and dies by it. Little things like free snacks and good beverage options (especially beer/wine for purchase to take to your room) goes a very long way in this industry. Your competition is stomping you.

    I stayed here this past weekend for AfroPunk. I'll make this easy for me by listing the pros and cons and elaborating in detail where important. Reference photos attached. PROS: 1. Location (super convenient)- I see a lot of negatives comments of the location but it was cool to me because if you ever wanted to be around everything and I mean EVERYTHING, then the location is solid. Within 2 minutes, up the block and around the corner you have a currency exchange, Walgreens, tons of fast food (Popeyes, Chipotle Burger King etc.), Starbucks, train access and so much more. Because of the the area is congested af at all times but I prefer it no other way. 2. Bathroom Water Pressure & Temp- more times than not when I've traveled anywhere, bathroom water pressure was low and temperature was barley warm to cold. Not here- showering was comfortable, the water gets hot and the pressure is consistent. 3. Hotel & Room stuff- Nice and ample lighting in the room. Bed is comfortable with clean bedding. Loft-style room, which is cute. This hotel has the best window covering. The roller shade blocks out light completely, if that's what you want especially for a morning after hangover. The outside of the hotel is fun with lots of art and colorful with cool benches to chill and/or take pictures at. There's bag storage in lobby for guests so if you arrive early you can leave them and hit the streets or if you have a later flight, you can still leave them for a little bit after checkout and come back for them. CONS: 1. Location- I know this was a pro but I had to mention this one flaw. There was a previous review regarding a guest whose car got broken into across the street from hotel. Well, while sleep Sunday night I recall a car alarm going off but I was too tired to get up and see what happened. The next morning, while doing my makeup in the window, I see a guy with NYPD because his range rover was broken into and putting 2 and 2 together, it was his car that was going off. Later, while sitting in the hotel's cafeteria, he and some other guy were also in the caf talking, trying to see if anyone saw anything or they have any information. 2. Elevator- raggedy, it does whatever it feels like. I eventually began taking the stairs up and down to and from 4th floor. I was not risking getting stuck. 3. Room Stuff- I stayed in room 402 and the toilet did not have a seat cover...so it was annoying having to be extra careful to not have my belongings falling from sink into the toilet. There was no shower curtain so the floor easily got wet. That can't be good overtime, I'm sure. If it's a cost factor, maybe a curtain made from recycled materials could be used in all rooms. The room floor was a little dirty, though I bring slides every trip to walk around in, I suggest making sure, if you're staying here to have house shoes or something in your luggage, not socks an actual shoe. All in all, it's a boutique hotel so you get what you pay for and it's honestly super affordable and worth it for a short 2-3 day trip. The staff was nice. Also shoutout to the rooms manager Marcus, he's amazing, accommodating and dresses cool- he's a pleasure. The photos of the community area and lobby does not represent what it is now- I hope it goes back to that. It would certainly give it a more organized, open and welcoming appeal. A tip for future guests would be to check your room thoroughly and if there's anything you need (extra rolls of toilet tissue, towels etc) make a list and get it stocked right away and if you're unhappy with your room, let them know they will accomodate you! I'd give it a 3 out of 5 stars because it was not terrible at all- just small improvements would make it amazing.

    Motion sensor?

    Ok experience - wish I'd done a little more research first. Location: not a particularly nice area, but I didn't feel unsafe at first. Within half mile of several transportation access options. There is not good shopping or food in the immediate area, you will have to walk or take transportation at least a few blocks for more options. The third night when I was walking back to the hotel there were about 10 various emergency vehicles in the surrounding block. After very little research I found some articles detailing the housing establishment across the street. Known to be one of the worst projects in the city with multiple murders 2018. Room: clean enough - no concerns with cleanliness. Housekeeping came as expected and performed standard services to expectations. Loft industrial style of decor is modern, recently updated, and appropriate for city life, but it is not exactly warm/homey if that is what you are looking for. I was very uncomfortable with a motion sensor being in my guest room on the 5th floor. I ended up covering it with a towel because I was not comfortable with thought of being monitored. Staff: standard service, generally friendly. When I arrived my reservation had been erroneously cancelled by an employee on the day I was supposed to check in. She was apologetic and was able to reinstate my reservation, but this could have ended poorly had there not been vacancy. Hotel itself: the bright colors and art around the building are fun. I did not take advantage of the free breakfast and can not speak to it. Elevator a little raggedy and slow. Overall value: It will be difficult to find something this spacious and clean for similar value closer to the city. Despite this I likely would not stay here on my own again or with children after reading more about area - I'd fork over the extra for safer neighborhood.

    Stayed one night here!

    My wife and I got delayed flying out from JFK so we decided to give this hotel a try. It's a really cool story boutique hotel that someone has clearly put some thought into. Each floor is decorated with murals and graffiti from local Brooklyn artists. The rooms were clean with nice finishes and basic amenities, no hair dryer in our room. Some creative storage solutions, funky furniture and a decent view. We were up on the eighth floor facing Manhattan and you could see the skyline. The bed was quite comfortable and very clean. When checking in, the staff was very friendly and helpful. We were very impressed. Overnight a fire department hose line burst in one of the stairwells right next to our room flooding just about every floor below us. I called the front desk and they tended to it quickly, calling the fire department to shut it off. It was a crazy freak incident to no fault of the hotel or staff and they took it in stride so good on em. If we find ourselves in Brooklyn again, we'd definitely give this place another shot.

    The rags used to clean up the room
    Naomy D.

    First thing when I walk through the doors, musty, smelly, small. Not even 5 min Into the hotel room and noticed so much filth. We called room service to clean the floor and it was an absolute jaw drop the difference between before and after they cleaned it. Although service was good, it's still not worth it. The room was mustier than the hallway! It's as if no one stepped foot in that room for a good year or so. Save your money for a different and better hotel. This place is a Complete dump.

It was also perfectly located just a short walk from my Pilates studio, which made sticking to my routine while traveling super easy. On top of that, there were plenty of coffee shops and local restaurants nearby, so I never had to go far for a good bite or my morning coffee. Being a Hilton Honors member made check-in a breeze, and I was even gifted complimentary water upon arrival, which was such a thoughtful touch. The room itself was clean, cozy, and perfect for a short stay. The view from my window was amazing especially at night and I loved how quiet it was, making it easy to fully relax after long days out. They also have great amenities like a gym and a breakfast buffet every morning. The waffle machines, fresh fruit, and coffee were definitely highlights and a great way to start each day.

At one point we needed another blanket, I normally get cold in any hotel I am in. They delivered that in a great amount of time. This really is a great location. It is about a 16-20 minute walk to the water area. I felt pretty safe at the hotel and the surrounding area. It is easy for ubers, taxis and ride share services to pick up and drop off. The room was comfortable for both my friend and I. There were two beds in our room which is exactly the type of room we booked. We did have issues with the AC. I am hoping they repaired it and looked into it after we left. It was warm in the room for s little, but by the time it was getting late it cooled down and I slept comfortably. Opening the window was not going to be an option. I would not sleep well to the ASMR sounds of NYC in real life. HEHE. They were helpful though. Overall this is a great hotel to stay at if you are wanting to be on the Brooklyn/Dumbo area. Perfect stay and the cost was not too bad. I was able to use points.

I spent 2 days getting the run around from their on-line booking company only to receive an email refusing to refund my money because it was past the cancellation date.

    ONE OF THE DIRTIEST PLACES I'VE EVER STAYED. I booked this hotel sometime in 2025 when reviews…read moreappeared to be favorable. I stayed in this hotel for two nights, May 19th and May 20th of 2026. What I encountered should NEVER be allowed in the hospitality industry. Immediately when you walk in to check in, you are met with the staff members behind bullet proof glass. The girl who works in the daytime has a very hard to hear voice and shows 0 emotion. The pictures show the front is decorated which is NOT the case any longer - it's just dirty and deteriorating. The lobby is out of order - chairs everywhere, the bar wasn't open the entire time we were there, and they tour down the TV that was once there. The elevator is deteriorating like the rest of the building, and you can hear it each way up and down. My partner and I walked into the room, which at first appearance looked nice. Once you sat down and looked around, things just became more unhinged by the moment. - DUST covered everything. - The floor was nasty and had dirt, scraps of food wrappers, and food crumbs everywhere. It was clear the floor had not been vacuumed in days. - The hallway was also covered in grime, and had an added stickiness to it which you felt each time you took a step forward. - The large door to the bathroom was off its hinges so it could no longer slide shut. - The shower had visible black mold. Only a few of the water spouts had water come out. The rest were either clogged or just didn't work any longer. - Paint was pealing on the wall. - The couch in the room was covered with a cheap, ripped, couch cover that had stains on it. - Visible cigarette burns showed in various areas of the room. - They only gave us one pillow and one towel. I had specifically booked the hotel for two guests. We used the hotel to quickly get ready for the rest of our night, and asked the man working at the front desk to bring up a few pillows and towels, as we explained we only had one of each. When we returned, they had brought two towels up to the room, but no pillows. My partner went downstairs to ask the man once again for pillows. He told us they would be right up. 15 minutes passed and nothing. We called again and he said the same thing - they would be right up. Another 15 minutes - nothing. I called once more, and said we needed them because we wanted to go to bed soon - I was clear my partner did not have any pillows to use as we only had one supplied to us. I was told they would be right up - they never came. When we left the next day, I was very straightforward with the girl working at the front and let her know it's unacceptable that my partner had to sleep on a "decorative" pillow from the touch which smelled. She told me they would be right up - but I told her they already said that to us -she needed to make it a top priority for us as we've asked many times. Not one apology was given for their lack of service. Fortunately, when we came back they had given us two pillows however, both of them stunk and were stained. When we woke up the next day, we realized the sheets had moved around a bit while we were sleeping, and my partner slept on a giant brown stain that could have been anything. NEVER staying here again - I hope they shut this place down soon what a joke.

    This is a long one, grab a snack!…read more -First Impression- Lobby was super cute, everything looked clean and well kept -Service- Kai checked me in at the front desk. She was on the phone when I arrived and was very apologetic for the wait time, which was only a couple minutes. There was another person at the front desk who was helping another guest, she also saw me when I came in and helped the guest who walked in after me. Check in was pretty easy, Kai was as accommodating as she could be and checked for any upgrades that could be applied. My room was very clean. Not sure when they made updates, but my room had hardwood floors which I was sooo happy about because the reviews I've seen show carpeted rooms which kinda skeeve me out, lol. Also, lovely views of the little park. -Price- This hotel was slightly pricier than others close by -Did Not Like- I stepped out for a brief period of time to grab a bite to eat, maybe 30 minutes max, and when I returned there was an item that was no longer present at the bottom of one of my bags. I was unable to address this with the staff in the moment, so I brought it to their attention the next morning at checkout (Saturday). Ashley wrote down the details of the incident and immediately offered me the managers contact information. I sent a email the following Monday. After a bit of back and forth over the course of about 2 weeks, they said their investigation was "inconclusive", but reimbursed my missing item "in good faith" after I showed them proof of purchase. -Noteworthy- One of the main reasons I chose this hotel over others in the area was the rooftop. Unfortunately it was closed for renovations, which was not displayed anywhere on the website prior to booking. -Recommend- Very cute place, but unfortunately I would not feel comfortable staying there again. Two stars instead of one as the staff was very kind.

    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.
