Question

【题目】BKLYN House Hotel

This hotel features works by Brooklyn artists. The 116 rooms are good value and Manhattan is only 20 minutes away by taxi or subway. The immediate surroundings feel urban — the hotel is by a high-rise public housing project while the nearest commercial street is under elevated(高的) subway tracks — but Bushwick’s best bars and cafes/restaurants are nearby.
