This place was great for my one week vacation in NY.. was clean had everything i needed.. and if you are like me who reads all reviews before you go, this one will work.. the lady Arlene was great always checking if i needed something and making me feel comfortable.. and the shower thing.. u can shower at anytime, but please be advised this is not your home so try to keep the noise low, i got late to the check in and MIchael was more than understandable with that! So if you going to NY(brooklyn area) this is your place to be!
