This was a nice play to stay, close to the subway stations and plenty of places to grab food from. Safe neighborhood and is about 15 minutes from Brooklyn. As far as stay goes the hotel is modern and as expected food is pricey. You are better off getting food at the nearby bodegas or restaurants. But if you must dine at Arlo definitely try their pizza and steak and potatoes!
For the actual hotel, the room is small like less than 400 sqft. The pillows are very flat so don’t expect too much comfort sleeping if you prefer an upright position. For cost, the price was great until I checked in and found out there was $100 refundable deposit plus a $17 Urban fee a night plus taxes. So all together that alone runs you about another $250 on top of your stay if you stay more than 3 nights/4 days.
Overall I enjoyed my stay and would stay here again if I absolutely had to. If you want the really dope Instagram worthy City View you need to visit Arlo Nomad.
