Liked: Cleanliness
The room had all the basic amenities. Wish they had a microwave. The air conditioner was noisy. I'm glad that the weather was on the warmer side for the season, so I didn't have to use the air conditioner. It would have kept me up all night since it was noisy. I liked the quietness. I was in the corner room. There was no noise from other parts of the hotel. The breakfast was delicious.

Just one E train subway stop from midtown Manhattan! Very clean hotel. Comfortable bed. Not super fancy but does the job well. I'd stay here again. The only negative is my " neighbors" would let their doors slam shut automatically which created a lot of noise.

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.

The twin beds are not stable, the hotel requires that all guest in the one room must go to breakfast together, which I think it was a strange requirement. Since I did not know it, I was not permitted to eat breakfast because my husband ate before I come down to eat.
