I've been 7 times to NY as a tourist so I try to review all aspects I believe are important.
-- Transportation: 1 min walking distance to bus Q47 or 3 min to bus Q66 (MTA cards work for bus, train & tramway) - Those buses will take you to Jackson Hts & Roosevelt Av station and there you can take trains 7 E F M R depending to where you are going. (You could also walk to the station but that will take you 18 min.) [35 to 55min to Manhattan depending on how you plan your route]
-- Location: The neighbourhood felt safe to arrive at any hour (We normally arrived past midnight.) The room also felt safe. There are a lot of convenient locations around to eat or buy stuff from gas stations or CVS.
-- Noise: If you are easy to wake up by the noise, be aware that the location is directly under the landing route from LGA although that's not a problem for me. A noise that was a problem for me was from roaches. Sadly I could hear them through the hanging ceiling and the heating trim across the place, I saw them a couple of times. Also, consider the planes are not to be heard all day long, it's just for a period of hours.
-- The place to stay itself: The bed was comfy and the couch too. The water heater works as a charm, AC has no issues. The shower had a little bit of mould and spots, overall I think if it gets a touch-up could end up being a win/win
-- I was offered to drop off my luggage earlier than the check-in but the communication was not as effective for that, so our 1st day was a little off track because of that.
