Affordable Hotel or B&B near Ft. Greene
My parents will be stopping through for a night next weekend and I need a place for them to stay as my place is too small. I’ve been looking for hotels in the area, but they all seem crazy expensive. The Mariott at the Bk bridge is $429 a night (!?) The Days Inn is…
My parents will be stopping through for a night next weekend and I need a place for them to stay as my place is too small. I’ve been looking for hotels in the area, but they all seem crazy expensive.
The Mariott at the Bk bridge is $429 a night (!?)
The Days Inn is farther than they want to stay, and looks scary to them (they are from the ‘burbs)
The Holiday Inn Express is $288 a night
I found Regina’s B&B on Ft Greene Pl but there is a 3 night stay minimum.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Ideally something around 150$ would be great… I think they would really like a local B&B if I could find one that would take them for only one night.
Sad that your parents aren’t even worth a couple of hundred bucks to you or you rather not sacrifice your own bed. I bet you have their nursing home picked out already.
Good grief. You can’t sleep on the couch for one night and give your parents your bed?Now I see why some people leave all there money and belongings to the cat or dog.
i stayed in the Baisley House B and B (alas nearly 2 years ago now) run by the wonderful Harry – I recommend it…
earlier this year I stayed at http://www.escapeguesthouse.com/ again a wonderful gem on Bergen between Hoyt and Bond
Let them stay in your place, and you can stay with a friend, or on the floor
Spencer Place B&B is right by the Franklin Ave C train stop. My parents stayed there for the weekend in April and thought it was fine. I think it was about $100 a night. It’s a brownstone run by a family who lives there too.

House on 3rd St in Park Slope

I just checked out homeaway.com … the Park Slope places appear to be very nice, and very reasonably priced… and OP, they allow one night stays.
( my family will be heading this way soon too!)
Seriously, one night? Do you have an aerobed? Invest in a queen size one and you’re set. They’re your parents after all. I never understood the whole hotel thing with your own parents.
