Great location for sightseeing, only a 5-minute walk from the subway station. The room was clean and comfortable, the price was reasonable, and the breakfast was good. The surrounding neighborhood was not the nicest, especially at night, but overall I had a pleasant stay.

Perfect place to stay when you visit NYC. Only one stop away from Midtown using the Subway. Small room, but very clean and cozy. Having hot breakfast every morning is a plus. The staff was very helpful every time we had interactions with them. Beds were kind of hard, but I guess that's what we needed after too much walking in the city. I definitely would stay here again.

Have stayed at many places in LIC, several times each, and this place is in the top rank, IMO. Relatively new, so it is clean and in good shape. Very close to two subway stations, from which you can get to anywhere. Lots of dining options in the area, especially for Asian food. What really distinguishes it for me is the staff - they are the most friendly and helpful of any of the places I have stayed.

The room was clean, but there were many ticks in the entrance area to the hotel and it is not safe for smokers to smoke in that area. I'm also hotel gold and they didn't have the detail of the bottle of wine they said they had with Gold customers. It is well located and you clean the rooms.
