Summary: Stayed for NY Carnival. However not sure how close I was to parade because i didnt attended. I was close to airport and fetes though. Was in king room 506. No cold water in the sink, and cable tv wasn't good quality. Small room but was fine for one person.

Summary: We arrived to find that the carpets in the room were soaked. When we asked the front desk for a different - dry - room they said all the rooms were wet like that due to some kind of carpet cleaning. Why rent a room that is wet like that? The room was musty and unhealthy the entire time were there. Also, there is no breakfast despite it being included in the listing. Overall, we give this one a big pass - stay somewhere else if you have options.

Summary: The location was perfect for travel between NYC, JFK and Long Island. Period. The "Breakfast" room was never set up for breakfast, no coffee, a moldy juice dispensing machine, and nothing to eat. The front desk reluctantly / begridgingly provided, upon request, a few of those plastic encased sickly sweet indestructible baked items ubiquitous in convenience stores, all of which were past their sell-by-dates. My room initially had no closet rail or hangers (had to request both) ditto a stopper for the tub. The cracked sink was repaired with a blob of silicone sealant, the only chair was a dented brown metal folding chair, the TV's resolution was about 150 dpi, and the remote could not access most of the features. The bed was quite comfortable, pillows rather less so! In a weak moment, I was tempted to inspect the bed and bath linen but decided it best not to do so, as nothing bears close, or in this case, ANY scrutiny. The faint-hearted may find the neighborhood rather sketchy, but it is certainly colorful! Finally, on several occasions at various times of the day, that no one at the front desk had me wondering how often nonguests wander into the building.
