Disliked: Amenities
The room was extremely hot throughout the night. The staff could help very little with that. The television did not work properly. The phone was broken in the room.
Myself and 3 family members stayed here for 1 night on a layover to Edinburgh from New Orleans. The staff were very friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The rooms were very clean and spacious with comfortable beds, good showers and great amenities.
Breakfast was included and we were very impressed with the variety and quality of the food.
Buses and the subway are a short distance away. Lots of good choices of eateries nearby.
Would recommend and definitely stay if ever in Long Island City again. Thank you!
The property was very accessible to the subway which was great. The room was clean and breakfast had a good variety. The staff were very friendly. My only negative would be the beds. They are hard as a rock and uncomfortable to sleep on.
Good find in LIC. Close to subway- super easy 10 min ride to Manhattan. Several good cafes within walking distance. Room and bathroom were very clean. Would prefer no carpet on the floor. Easy check in.
Safe neighborhood. Great value.
Clean, friendly, and super convenient to multiple transportation options. The neighborhood looks like a lot of New York City with a mix of new and old, but there are many hidden gems for great food all over.
Great location, 5 min walk to main train station that takes 10 min to Manhattan and 25min to LGA.
Clean room, elevator works, good and safe neighborhood, breakfast was decent.
Nice staff. Average breakfast. Maybe more variety at breakfast. Hotel location was convenient for subway access to airport and Manhattan. Just a block or two away. Room was clean. Nice bathroom. Bed was firm but not hard. TV system not easy to operate. Only big concern was that the storage room for luggage lacked any reasonable security. Looked unlocked most of the time relying on the vigilance of the front desk employee. The premises outside was limited parking. Simply drop offs. Hard to tell if neighborhood was safe or unsafe. There is graffiti and a car repair adjacent to the hotel. But overall hotel was a great bargain and convenient to subway access. There were a lot of restaurants within walking distance along with a Walgreens which is a big plus as well.
