Microtel Inn by Wyndham Long Island City

It was a good hotel. No weird stains. There was an ice machine which was nice. I wish there was a tub, but it was the cheapest hotel with 4+ stars so I’m not complaining. There are more expensive hotels that are worse. The sheets were clean, the amenities were modern, check-in was easy. I had a problem with cancellation, called the front desk, and they took care of it easily. Look, I’m not picky. Sure, the breakfast might not be a lot. Who cares lol. It’s a good hotel room with no problems. If it’s too cold set it higher and wait a little, run the shower if you have to heat it up. It’s good.

Solid, clean place. I was surprised that not much noise from outside gets in, considering how close the hotel is to the train (very convenient for taking the N/W). However, noise between rooms does travel. Wasn’t too bad. The room was nice, nicely done sheets, plenty of towels, nice little closet and coffee maker. No microwave or mini-fridge, which was a bummer. The morning breakfast is pretty pitiful: coffee, tea, boxed orange juice, plastic fruit cups, yogurt. Service is kind and responsive, but mask wearing was spotty even though the front door says “you must wear a mask to enter.” However, all that said, it’s a very affordable place to stay and is solid for the price.

Room was plenty big. Bed was very comfortable. Hubby and i liked the dim light in the bathroom instead of leaving the light on. Breakfast was meager, but free. Coffee, tea, muffins, yogurt, granola bars, boxed OJ, fruit cups. There is a microwave in the breakfast area, but we would really have liked to have one and a mini fridge in our room for our 2 night stay. Great BBQ place nearby - 2 blocks away. Proximity to the N train was great!

I saw some negative comments about this hotel, and I was afraid about it, however I had a great experience at the Microtel. Highlights: - I dropped off my baggage at the hotel before the check in. That was a big deal for me! - Clean spaces - Large and comfortable bed - Refrigerator in the bedroom - Location next to the subway station (5 minutes walking) - Easy check-in and check out The neighborhood looks nice, I walked at night and didn’t have any problems. About the breakfast, there were just coffee, tea, hot water, juice, yogurt, cereal bars, muffins and canned fruits. So, the breakfast could be better.

This hotel experience was fresh, cozy and convenient. A bit pricey but it was Black Friday weekend in NYC. Prices will probably return to regular after holidays. And parking was a bit crazy but again, it's NYC. Overall, this hotel is very clean, modern and comfortable and came with breakfast for a good morning start. Location was also great near the subway and downtown Queens...and the bed was amazing; slept wonderfully!
