Great stay!

This is a great little hotel in Long Island City. It’s easy to find, is a short one block walk to the Subway (and a quick 10-15min ride to Manhattan), is in walking distance to both Target and Trader Joe’s, and is a 20-30min ride from La Guardia. The room was clean and decently modern, housekeeping came daily, and breakfast was good typical hotel fare. It was also a decently safe area. They also held our luggage the day we checked out so we didn’t have to lug it around the city before our flight! The view from the rooftop is great too. The only drawbacks were the beds weren’t super comfortable and it was a bit loud outside our window. But overall, great hotel, I would stay there again.

I didn't like the small twin beds but it worked out for us. Also there needs to be a microwave in the rooms especially when after hours we can't use the dining area.

Estuve muy sorprendida de llegar a este hotel entre tantas highways y avenidas, muy ruidoso y mas encima mi pieza daba al parking en que los autos casi chocaban cn mi ventana!! Nunca había tenido una experiencia tan mala en un hotel y yo venia de pasar un dia agotador de moving en que lo único que quería era poder estar en un lugar tranquilo y nice
