Too expensive for the value
The room was comfortable, but for what this hotel offered the cost is extremely high. We will never stay there again.

Spacious Rooms in Greenpoint
Spacious rooms in northwestern Greenpoint with plenty of free, on-street parking nearby. Building was clean and well managed, and room would have been great for a short or a longer stay.

A Stay for an Experience and Overall Comfort
The stay at Franklin Guesthouse was perfect. The room definitely gave the feel of staying in an apartment. It felt like you were home. The amenities included within your room were more than a standard hotel. The staff were very friendly and helpful when finding something within the area (i.e. restaurants, stores, etc.). I would consider staying here again when I visit the area in the future.

Very comfortable accomodations. Down side, no breakfast or coffee available. The room had an efficiency kitchen, but who wants to cook when they are away. May be great if you have kids but you have to leave the property of essentials

Very nice large room. Very clean. Staff seemed new, inexperienced. Charged me a fee that I had already paid. Still waiting for the credit. Saturday night in the bar restaurant below, the music was loud thumpa thumpa until 11:30 at night.

Location where there are lots of restaurants and close to other areas in Greenpoint And Williamsburg. Price is good for NY and size. The lobby and hallways should be refurbished to be 5 star. Also the shower is in the bathtub which is more inconvenient for older people (over 60).

Feels like you’re staying at a NYC apartment more than a hotel. Very comfortable and cozy. The staff is lovely. Highly recommend!
