Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Our stay was very good. Easy to park a car and walk to subway. Nice coffee shop nearby. Our request for a higher room was accommodated. We did not try the breakfast because we joined our son. Our only hotel issue was that the room fan did not go on even when we turned the fan symbol to high, and the room was a little too warm. We also had loud guests on our floor after midnight one of 3 nights. But overall, it was a clean, quiet, comfortable stay for a reasonable price. There are some good restaurants and ice cream shops within 15 minutes walk as well.

The room was very spacious and offered very useful amenities such as a minibar, microwave, and hair dryer. The breakfast had a great variety of options, and the staff were very friendly. The hotel is conveniently located near several subway stations, making it easy to get around. I would definitely recommend LIC PLAZA and would stay there again.

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.

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!
