I'm really pretty easy going but this hotel is all fluff and no substance. We were so excited to spend the night after finding it online. All the glowing reviews, great location to Park Slope and such a modern, clean presentation. What's not to like?

Well when you show up at 4 PM and your room isn't ready. That kinda sucks. Especially when the "lobby" is the size of a postage stamp and you are left to just kinda stand there waiting because several other folks were waiting as well and there's one small bench.

Once we got a room, it was two double beds. We paid for and reserved a king. We got two doubles.

Add to that, a $250.00 (YEP TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY BUCKS) hold on your card for incidentals? Per night! Their website says $150.00 which is still absolutely ridiculous. When we called the desk, the girl was completely indifferent (probably because she's been getting calls all day) and said, "I guess the website's wrong."

The shower had three different handles; I still can't figure out why and while the balcony is great there is nothing to sit on so you just walk out there, look down at the parking lot and wonder, "why the hell are we here?"

This place tries really hard but falls so far short it's not even funny. The staff can't be bothered, except for extremely pleasant girl who delivered our croissants (which are complimentary) in the morning. A nice touch but not worth the hassle or the money.

Skip this place.
