Pros
Four separate rooftop terraces offering Manhattan skyline views

Soundproofed rooms for quiet rest
Cons
Compact room sizes may feel restrictive
Empire State Building and Rockefeller Center require longer travel (4.5-3 miles)
“The POD Brooklyn sacrifices space for an unbeatable location in Williamsburg; it's a trade-off that puts you steps from the subway, lively nightlife, and some of the best bagels in the borough. Though compact, the rooms are clean and smartly designed, prioritizing functionality for travelers who plan to spend their time exploring the city; the rooftop bar alone is a solid reason to book. This is a perfect base for those prioritizing location and value over sprawling living space.”

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel which offers great value for money. The cleanliness of the entire place was impressive, and I loved how convenient the location was for exploring the city. However, while the amenities were functional, the dining options could be better. Overall, it felt like a great choice for my trip, especially being pet-friendly!
