This hotel and room are in a great location, near public transportation that will quickly bring you to Manhattan. The staff is very helpful, the rooms are clean and stylish. This is a hotel and if noise is of concern, opt for an inside room or on a higher floor as the lower floor rooms, which are nice and large, can absorb a lot of road noise from the adjacent overpass. It wasn’t a deal breaker for us and the large room with a full kitchen was great for our family of four. The free ride to the Queens subway station was also great on rainy days, but the walk there was easy and we did so several times with no problems. The neighborhood is also great and we had several nice dinners there. I’d highly recommend the location as an alternative to staying in Manhattan, especially if you have a family and want some extra space.
