The hotel is in an area I wanted to be in. The room was fine but I wish the television moved so you could see it better from the sofa. There could also be more hooks or shelves in the bathroom.

The layout and design of the rooms is excellent. They use the available space well, so they’re cozy and comfortable. I have pretty high standards for hotels but this was up to par for a nice 4 star hotel.

The Penny was just perfect for us! Beautiful hotel, spacious and light rooms and lovely added touches (such as the fresh coffee and local recommendations card). Williamsburg did not disappoint and we absolutely loved the area. We will be back and have already recommended it to friends and family!

Had a great stay! Everything is clean and well maintained. Only thing is that the restaurant is closed on Monday which means no dining room service, which sucked. But i will definitely stay again!

Nice and new boutique hotel with a great location. We were able to walk around Williamsburg as well as Greenpoint from this location and very close to metro stops for manhattan.
