The sheets were stained and covered in tears, under the bed was a thick layer of dust and remnants of tenants’ stays. The bathroom could’ve been worse but the shower curtain was covered in mold and there wasn’t any hand soap by the sink. You’re definitely getting what you pay for and nothing more.

Not great, but got the job done

Needed a place after a bunch of flights were cancelled. Staff was courteous, but the room floor was a bit dirty, toilet flush didn't work so well and there were no towels in the room by default. Could be due to tat day's rush though. The nearby restaurant was nice enough

I wish there was a 2 1/2 star choice. Walking from Jamaica Station to the hotel was not a pleasant experience. It is in a very rough area. Even the desk clerk was behind bulletproof glass. If you need to stay a night close to JFK, this place is an inexpensive choice (walking to and from the Air Train in daylight). But, on to the room. Small room, but very bright and clean. You can tell the place isn't that old. Google street view even shows the old building before it was torn down. But wait! No towels in the bathroom. It took 2 calls an hour apart to finally get towels delivered to the room. I put the towels on the towel rack and the rack came off the wall. Someone didn't install it correctly. The refrigerator was placed next to the bed so close that the door would only open a few inches. Who designed this room? We'll, my bright idea was to move the bed over so we could get our drinks and food in. It worked. But, the headboard didn't move with the bed because it was attached to the wall. Who designed this place? Anyway if you have no choice but to spend the night by the Jamaica Station and you want to save a few bucks (Holiday Inn is a little farther down the block at more than double the price), this would be an "OK" choice. The front desk people were nice and polite and apologized for the towel rack when we checked out.

Pay a bit extra and find another hotel!

Last minute airline delay booking so the cost to stay was so not worth it. I know it's a no frills hotel, but plastic covering under bed sheets, uncomfortable mattress, thin blanket, not very clean room and no towels were available. Pay a little extra and find another hotel.

The room I was allotted was not cleaned, the sheets were dirty and no towels in the bathroom. I went to the front desk and told the worker who told me he had only one other room and he went and checked it before assigning it to me as a replacement for the first room I had. The front desk personnel, came back and informed me that the second room was even worse. He canceled the reservation on their side and assured me that I would be fully refunded. Once again, I was out of a place to stay. I was stranded at 2am in the morning and had to drive in the wee hours of the morning to another hotel in rain a thick fog to get to safety with my child.

Find somewhere else!!!

Do not stay at this hotel. They dont have any soap or towels in the rooms. They say it is a non smoking facility but there's weed smoke everywhere and the smoke alarms are either removed or not working. The rooms are small and you have to leave a $50 deposit when you check in. They give it back to you at checkout but they don't tell you that when you book the room.
