I found the hotel to have a "youth hostel like" feel. Staff was very friendly and helpful but overall the hotel was not what I was expecting. My bed was on a low bed frame with just a mattress so anyone with difficulty standing from a lower surface would definitely have difficulties getting out of bed. My VIP upgrade bottle of wine was 2 small airplane sized bottles . Hotel was clean and well kept and I did feel safe.

There is nothing unique about the NU hotel. My experience this past weekend was okay, but I will not go back. I arrived at 6:00 PM, and my room was not ready! The room was not exactly clean; I found a stain on the pillowcase; thank god I brought my Pillowcases. The shower structure is terrible, and leaks water all over the floor. This hotel is not for me, and I won't go back.

I was in Brooklyn for a funeral. Almost every hotel was booked so this was a last resort since staying with family was a definite no-no. It was a nice hotel. Very clean and the room was spacious. Busy area in downtown Brooklyn. There is a parking garage next to hotel, but you don't have access to your vehicle like you would expect to. Breakfast selections were simple. I believe shopping was nearby, but did not experience it. Forgot how crowded and congested NY is so limited any extra-curricular activities.
