Very nice budget hotel with excellent access to Manhattan in a pretty safe area. Subway is 3 blocks away. Simple but ample breakfast is very handy to get started for the day. They kept refilling food till the end time which was very nice. The property seems to have been renovated so the rooms are updated and fresh (don't judge it from the sign board outside :)) Highly recommend for families.

It was such a nice and calm area. The staff was so nice. I was able to call them to let them know I might not make it to the hours of check in cause of my train and they were so understanding.

“The hotel is okay—nothing fancy, small rooms, very simple with no amenities. The breakfast is limited and lacks variety. On the other hand, the area is quiet and it’s within walking distance to the subway station.”

We loved our stay. Great location to the train with several great dining options nearby. The room was spotless, the staff extremely kind and accommodating. Breakfast being included was a wonderful perk with plenty of options available. We will happily be back on our next trip.

Very clean, hotel, helpful and friendly staff, lots of variety of breakfast. The room had a lot of extras, like a fridge, an in-room safe, very effective room, darkening curtains, and air conditioning works well. Convenient to Subway and the music festival we came to enjoy. We would definitely return!

Steps from the N, W and 7 subway lines. Hotel room was immaculately clean. Breakfast buffet was included and offered both cold and hot items. There was also a convenient hotel shuttle to nearby airports available for an additional cost.

Great, clean location. Matress of steel.

I will start by saying that the hotel was the cleanest in which either my wife or I have ever stayed. The staff were very friendly, and the hotel’s proximity to the subway station at Queensborough Station made it super convenient to get into the city. We did two baseball games at both stadiums and had no problem getting to either one. Breakfast was about what you would get at a Hampton Inn. BUT, the bed was the hardest thing on which we have ever slept. It was extremely uncomfortable. WiFi was almost non-existent. It was better to just use my hotspot from my phone. Onei or thing was that the coffee maker in the room was dirty, so we didn’t use it. I wish I could leave a better review because everyone was so nice, and it was a perfect location.

Great location

I have stayed at the LIC Plaza Hotel a couple of times. It is a great location near restaurants, bars, grocery stores and quick access to the subway. The room was comfortable and clean. The bed was firm. I liked that there was a mini fridge and microwave. The staff was nice and helpful.
