My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were spacious and updated, but unfortunately, mine was on a lower floor facing a construction site, which made it dark and a bit unpleasant. The cleanliness was satisfactory, although the bed was not very comfortable with small pillows. On the positive side, the hotel was conveniently located near the train station, but the surrounding area felt a bit intimidating. The service was a mix of friendly and helpful staff, with some mishaps like mistaking housekeeping for room service. The dining options were limited to pastries and cereals, which left much to be desired. Despite some shortcomings, the hotel provided value for money with its clean facilities

When I arrived, I found the hotel conveniently located close to the train station, which was perfect for my JFK travels.

I stayed at the hotel and found it to be very clean and nice, but the rooms were small and not properly cleaned. The bed was uncomfortable with only two small pillows. The service was great and very helpful, although I was moved to another hotel owned by the same company. The location was perfect for us as we could easily access Queens and take the train to La Guardia. The dining experience was underwhelming with a limited breakfast selection. Overall, the hotel had its positives and negatives.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was ideal for JFK travelers, very convenient and close to Jamaica Station. However, the room cleanliness left much to be desired, with stains and residue in various places. The service was helpful and informative but lacked acknowledgment upon arrival. Dining options were poor, especially considering the early morning flight crowd, with limited choices and excessive use of styrofoam. Despite some flaws, the overall value for money was adequate for a short stay.

Our stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. While the room cleanliness was lacking and not as advertised online, the hotel did offer two double beds, which was a plus for my paralyzed wife. The location, although near JFK Airport and convenient for layovers, felt unsafe at night. The dining options were limited and borderline gross, but at least the breakfast was decent.
