The Nu Hotel is located well in Brooklyn, convenient to public transportation, including subway from/to Howard Beach/JFK. The room and bathroom were very clean and comfortable, although I found the in-room AC/heating unit a little loud. The hallway on the second floor also smelled a little of tobacco smoke. As I only stayed for one night, I didn’t get to sample other amenities, such as the breakfast and gym.

NU Brooklyn is, in the words of Jack Reacher," Everything you need, nothing you don't." Well placed ,10 minutes walk from multiple subway stations. Clean, friendly, comfortable and functional. Spare not fancy. Would be 4 stars but goes down to three because they could not fix a broken light over the sink over 3 full days, including one regular workday, threatening to turn shaving into a blood letting. Will definitely stay again.

I came to Brooklyn to attend a concert for my BDay. I was pleasantly surprised to know that the staff was friendly, accommodating and professional. You never know what you're going to get with NY energy... Also, the cleaning staff was awesome; I ended up leaving them a little tip! My room was cleaned daily not like some other major chains. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here @ NU and would recommend it to anyone.
