I am so glad I found this little gem of a hotel. We had a king one-bedroom suite, and it was very spacious, especially for New York. It felt like we were staying in a friend’s apartment. Staff was very kind and helpful. I would absolutely stay here again.

Area is not bad, just not as nice as downtown. Room is much larger than others I have stayed in the area (Manhattan & Queens). Hotel is 2 blocks from N, W subway line or 5 blocks from 7 line (15 min from Midtown). All three lines stop at the Queensboro Plaza so you can change trains or walk. Cost/accessibility to downtown is very reasonable.
