A slice of home in Greenpoint
We stayed at FGH for a wedding -- though we were a bit nervous when we walked into a small lobby, when we got to our room, every penny was WELL worth it! It is like staying in your own apartment, it felt like home and we, frankly, didn't want to leave.

This place is worth the steep price. The rooms are private, squeaky clean, lots of natural light, and best of all they are so quiet. I appreciate such a private and quiet location in the heart of a busy city. 5 stars
