Love The Penny!

My third time at the Penny to visit family in the area. Great location for Williamsburg and for going into the city. Well thought out, comfortable rooms and great service. Love the rooftop restaurant…went for drinks and appetizers…amazing views, delicious guac and comfy couches for a group. Will be back!

Penny has the most thoughtful touches in a room I’ve ever seen, including a foam roller, yoga mat and block, and a small breakfast nook with fresh fruit. Room was meticulously clean and staff was kind and attentive. Will be staying again!
