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!

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.
