Pleasant proprietor, good Brooklyn location, but short on cleanliness (anything which fell on the floor gathered dust bunnies galore). Breakfast was quite minimal. Pastries left over from one day were served as breakfast the next day, no fruit was... read more

The Escape Guest House is an excellent choice if your are visiting friends or family in Broklyn. Just two train stops from Manhattan and yet in a charming neighborhood the Escape Guest House will make your visit to New York worth every penny.

I was looking for a good location and value while visiting NY for 5 days. This B&B does offer those features including a friendly atmosphere. The single room is sparsely decorated in comparison to the more attrative decor in the larger rooms.... read more
Innkeeper Response
We perform housekeeping daily from 10am (end of breakfast) until 3pm (checkin) but this guest consistently arrived at breakfast 15 minutes after closing time during a sold-out weekend while my assistant was catering a wedding. This guest expected me to cook her breakfast to order, even though we ordinarily offer only continental breakfast. I should have explained that she had missed breakfast and I could not cook for her as I had to move on to my housekeeping. We have now added a second assistant, enabling us to keep up with busy weekend housekeeping even when our guests have special requirements.
