PUBLIC, an Ian Schrager hotel
It’s a beautiful hotel super close to soho, local bars and restaurants. Rooms are quite small with not much storage for personal things. We everyone was super nice besides one bartender on the rooftop bar.

Aura Hotel Brooklyn
Was very pleasant, just find out the check in process takes too long, with technology. Today they should have faster ways of taking id and personal information before hand. So the check-in takes faster
