I was looking for an inexpensive accommodation for a two day layover from JFK and this is a good option for the budget-minded. Its fairly close to JFK. You can take public transportation or an uber for about 30.00 to the location. Its located in a very middle-class suburb area. very safe and kept up. The facility itself is a bit dated and kinda like staying in a private room at a hostel in that there are other bedrooms that other people stay in. Security is good and the host makes the best of it leaves snacks and welcome types of touches for you. She was great in that I arrived late 11pm she, like motel 6, left the light on and guided me to the location from the airport - really very nice . Its very basic a little dated but clean and welcoming. You can take a bus or the Long Island Railroad into NYC. safe - clean - welcoming bed for a stopover.
