Booked this B & B for a week-end since I was familiar with the neighborhood and wanted to stay in Brooklyn. The room looked a bit haunted, but I guess that is part of the "charm" of a B & B. The insects were not charming, however. I noticed a few bugs in the room but didn't think much of... more

I wish I had checked this site before booking my room at the Union St B&B. My friend and I stayed here the weekend of 10/17/08. We had reserved a room requesting 2 beds in late August. Upon arriving, we found a very curt Joanna informing us that they don't guarantee a particular room. What that means is once she... more

We are very sorry that this guest had an unpleasant experience here. While most of our guest leave feeling happy and satisfied, we know that we cannot please everyone. While our establishment is small, it enjoys tremendous popularity, and many of our guests return time and again. Because of this, occupancy can be tight and we are limited in our...

Firstly it has bedbugs. Management knows about this problem but didn't disclose it to its guests. During our stay we noticed several bites but chalked it up to mosquitoes until the last night of our stay when I saw an unfamiliar bug bite me. We later ran into another guest (after we checked out) that told us they were bedbugs.... more

Our guests comfort is our top priority, so we take this issue very seriously. Due to recent complaints of this nature, we have instituted a new extermination program aimed at eliminating these pests. Additionally we undertook steps including the purchasing of new beds, and renovations originally scheduled for this winter. We do appreciate feedback from our guests, so we can...

Paid $ 200,- per room and night; only bathroom and fan was ok; bed made a lot of noise. After three nights we moved with some fleas (very annoying when you travel) to a much better and cheaper Hotel in Manhattan. Breakfast was outside in a coffee shop that tried to sell french feeling. So, we ended up in the... more

Well, I wanted my wife's first stay at a B & B to be memorable. I was not disappointed. The only problem is that the memory is not a pleasant one. Check this out. We get to the place and the first thing the owner says is "We don't do breakfasts anymore. Oh, didn't I tell you on the phone?"... more

I had friends staying in the area, and I found this B&B online. They had to check out early due to the rudeness of the hosts. Also, after their incident, I found out from other neighbors in the area that the 'breakfast' has not happened in this B&B for years as their kitchen seems to infinitely be under renovation. Needless... more

My stay was a relatively long one (the end of Sept. into Oct. 2007) due to being in NYC for family reasons. I chose this B and B because it was reasonably priced and in a location that was good for me. The rooms (note the plural) were basically clean but were slightly shabby. The room at the front was... more

We're fairly seasoned travelers, and wanted to head to NYC for a weekend. We didn't want to stay in the city and waste part of our budget on completely inflated hotel prices, so we found Union St. B&B. On arrival, we didn't even know if we were at the right place. There isn't any sign that tells you where you... more

As experienced B&B guests, we found the place minimally acceptable if one must stay in this part of Brooklyn for a night, but certainly nothing to write home about. On the other hand, the only alternatives except in dicey adjacent neighborhoods are a Marriott, a Holiday Inn, and a Holiday Inn Express at $325-$500 per night. Actually, the "overall experience"... more

Love it...

I had an excellent stay at the b and b and plan to go there anytime I am in New York. The hotel is very charming and clean, Johanna was a warm and gracious host. The place is very cute and is decorated in a unique Victorian style and the neigborhood is the nicest of any I have been to... more
