This is a fabulous hotel with warm, helpful staff and fun, bright decor. This loft studio is spacious and comfortable with a nice desk and kitchen area in addition to living and bed area. The only downside is there are skylights and block glass for natural light but no traditional windows. With the lofted ceiling and a lot of lamps, ceiling lights, and a fan it felt open and bright. I stayed in the loft for three days straight working remotely for a conference on Europe time and it was a perfect work space.
This part of Greenpoint is more quiet but a lot of great coffee, cafes, and restaurants. The river with parks is super close as is the rest of Greenpoint / Williamsburg, and Long Island City. If you don’t like walking or an Uber, there are convenient buses to the subway. But the walk is short and interesting too.
