Rooms are absolutely amazing, beautiful and spacious, the price makes these rooms an absolute steal! I’ve stayed in pricier rooms in the same vicinity that weren’t half the size or quality of what Boro offers.

I live in Queens and was pleasantly surprised to find this hotel so close by. It’s super cute and unique , not looking like a typical chain hotel. Everyone was nice and personable. It’s about a 10 minute walk to multiple subway stops and then a short trip (2-4 stops depending on the line) to get into Manhattan. If you choose a ride share, it’s a 15 - 20 min ride over the 59th St bridge to get to Midtown. It’s in the middle of a popular neighborhood with tons of restaurants nearby. Also, it’s way cheaper than staying in the City and really close. Attached are photos of the skyline from our balcony.

I understand it's a minimalist hotel, however, at least a single dresser would be greatly appreciated. Otherwise, a wonderful experience.

Shower water pressure was excellent. The bed was very comfortable. The food was very good. The staff were very nice. We didn't like the rustic look, nor did we like the limited amount of lighting in the room. The room needed at least three more lights in the room, and one more chair.
