MAP
This old factory has been smartly converted into a chic boutique hotel; various industrial
touches have been preserved and emphasized, whether exposed brick or floor-to-ceiling
warehouse-style windows. “Baby queens” and bunks offer a good deal, though you may
want to pay extra for more space and the Brooklyn or Manhattan-side views from higher
floors.
$375.
