Love The Penny!

My third time at the Penny to visit family in the area. Great location for Williamsburg and for going into the city. Well thought out, comfortable rooms and great service. Love the rooftop restaurant…went for drinks and appetizers…amazing views, delicious guac and comfy couches for a group. Will be back!

Penny has the most thoughtful touches in a room I’ve ever seen, including a foam roller, yoga mat and block, and a small breakfast nook with fresh fruit. Room was meticulously clean and staff was kind and attentive. Will be staying again!

Disliked: Cleanliness
The room was even smaller than expected which is saying something. We chose this hotel primarily for it's location and because the reviews said it was clean. It wasn't as clean as I was hoping unfortunately. (A few stains on the sheets and towels, on the carpet in the hallway, etc.) But generally we felt comfortable and it was super convenient for hanging out in BK with friends.

Tiny little rooms contribute to the NYC experience. While compact, the space is very comfortable. Bathroom is big enough and the small but serviceable sitting area was a plus. Pour over coffee set-up a highlight! Convenient location walkable to everything with a fully stocked deli/bodega around the corner. ElNico restaurant is quite fancy and the food was very good. Mexican food not my favorite but the guacamole and ceviche were to die for. Fabulous cocktails and a stunning view. Only quibble: need more than 4 hangers!
