We stayed here while visiting our daughter in Williamsburg. The location was perfect between 2 stops on the L. It was easy to get to Manhattan for shows The hotel was very clean and although the room wasn't large, it was efficiently designed, so we had everything we needed. The rooftop deck was lovely! I would stay here again.

Best stay in Williamsburg
The hotel was all that we hoped. The staff was welcoming, bright clean atmosphere. I loved the view out my window over the bed, a nice “wild” garden with hydrangeas and anemone flowers blooming. The layout of the small room was very clever and well throughout making it feel roomy. Everything you can need is there, including an umbrella. The location was convenient to the “G” subway line, though we found it is temporarily closed for most of the southern route. There we nice little cafes within a short walk. Pleasant stay!

Fun Weekend
I enjoyed staying at the Penny. It was convenient to a lot of attractions in Brooklyn, the service was great and responsive, and I especially liked the free bikes available to tour around in. I would definitely stay again!

I like how close it was to transportation. Entertainment on the TV was good and wifi. Check-in was simple and quick. Staff seemed but more helpful to other guests though. It wasn’t a very clean room either. There was a stain in the comforter, wondering it it was even changed or washed. I really really dislike the smell of the soap. Please change that.

Loved our stay here, between the fun, funky decor, the simple check-in/check-out, and the pour-over coffee, everything was perfect. Finding free street parking was easy, and the location was very convenient, being only a short walk to the subway. The room was clean and very spacious compared to many other NYC hotels we have stayed at. Will definitely stay here again!

Oh the Penny! You’ve completely won me over. I stumbled upon this new chic boutique hotel for a last minute trip to my former city. The property is new and clean. While the rooftop is absolutely beautiful! What a great experience & I’ll definitely see you my next visit.

Our room was clean and very sleek with lots of nice little touches like real cutlery, a bath robe and a steamer. We didn’t get a chance to eat in the rooftop restaurant but we did pop up to check it out. The view is amazing.
