The three-pearl BKLYN House is a simple, yet funky hotel in the up-and-coming neighborhood of Bushwick in northern Brooklyn. There are a handful of nearby restaurants and shops, as well as a subway station (the JMZ line) just a three-minute walk away. All rates include a free hot buffet breakfast and there is free juice, tea, and coffee on offer throughout the day. Other features are limited to a common area with two internet-connected computers with printing facilities and free day passes to two nearby gyms. As an alternative, Aloft New York Brooklyn is located closer to downtown Brooklyn and features an indoor rooftop pool as well as a fitness center.
