Inn Details
Located on a quiet street, we offer five inviting guest rooms with wireless internet, in-room refrigerators and daily maid service. Continental breakfast served 8am-10am. Our parlour holds books, board games and a piano for guest use. Gym available (gym fees apply).
We are steps away from the myriad cafes, restaurants and shops on Smith Street and Atlantic Avenue. Walk to Atlantic Terminal, BAM, St. Anne's Warehouse, the Brooklyn Bridge and downtown Manhattan, or hop on the F train just two blocks from our door.

Rummage the local retro shops or dress to the 9s for a charity bash. Catch an inhouse concert with local and national performers, or ride the Cyclone at Coney Island.
Whether you want to stay in or get out, we'll help you find just what you're looking for.
