Great location

I have stayed at the LIC Plaza Hotel a couple of times. It is a great location near restaurants, bars, grocery stores and quick access to the subway. The room was comfortable and clean. The bed was firm. I liked that there was a mini fridge and microwave. The staff was nice and helpful.

Stayed at LIC Plaza hotel for one night. The room was very clean and the other guests I met at the lobby and morning breakfast were families and tourists. Subway stations (Queensboro Plaza and Queens Plaza) within walking distance. Hotel is basic with no frills but has all you need for a short stay.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
I walked in and the receptionist was cold and unfriendly. Mechanical. I was less than impressed and also being offered a bottle of wine for being VIP when I am sober for 3 years, didn’t even think to ask me if the gift was ok!!!! No gym but for the price im unsure why not even the most basic of treadmills would’ve sufficed. No just no
