Brooklyn Bliss, Brooklyn, NY
Is Brooklyn Bliss good for a remote work trip to New York?
Yes, Brooklyn Bliss has a dedicated desk with an ergonomic chair in the primary bedroom, Verizon FIOS WiFi at 100+ Mbps, and a quiet Williamsburg street, with Manhattan 7 minutes away on the L train.
The desk is a real writing desk with an ergonomic chair, beside a window with good natural light for video calls. There is also an ethernet port in the living room for a wired connection when you need zero lag.
The WiFi is Verizon FIOS fiber at 100+ Mbps, enough for video calls, uploads, and streaming at the same time. The block is quiet, and each room has its own wall mounted unit for heating and cooling with a remote, so the work room stays at your temperature.
When the laptop closes, Manhattan is 7 minutes away on the L train, under 15 minutes door to door, and the coffee shops are on foot. Variety Coffee, a local roaster with ample seating and fast WiFi, is a 7 minute walk, and Devocion on Grand Street roasts Colombian coffee under a skylight.
Longer stays make sense here. Stays of 7 nights or more get 10 percent off automatically and 30 nights or more get 20 percent off. A free washer and dryer are in the building basement with detergent provided.
Two Smart TVs, in the living room and the primary bedroom, stream with your own logins. A Keurig with complimentary pods and an electric kettle handle the mornings, and a full kitchen with a dishwasher means a work week does not have to mean a week of takeout.
No monitor, printer, or office supplies are provided, so bring what you need.
