Dirty hotel with dirty rooms. Bed sheets had holes in them. Showers look as if they had not been cleaned in 3 days... soap residue from prior guest. Horrible beds, paper thin walls and hot, steamy lobby and elevator. Front desk staff less than helpful and breakfast room was like an oven with poor circulation and not enough seating. What... more

We booked this hotel because of the breakfast, shuttle service and Best Western name. If it was not for the poor hit and miss shuttle service I think we would be relatively pleased with this hotel. Regarding the shuttle:Recommend taking a yellow cab from LaGuardia rather than shuttle-we waited over an hour for it and it never showed up. Twice... more

It's a travel inn, and as such, this hotel has absolutely no glamour, and no sophisticated service in dining or reception. But you do get: *A good price compared to Manhattan *A very spacious room compared to Manhattan, with views of midtown two or three miles away *Clean and functional facilities, albeit a little bit knocked about in places *A... more

This is a hotel situated in a good location close to New York. It provides a shuttle bus which takes people to and from the subway station which is about a 5 min ride away from the hotel. The hotel is situated in a part of town which could require a face lift but is very easy to access by... more

A good place with adequate facilities. Decent Breakfast Good size double room. Quiet side of the building. About a mile from the closest MTA station. Hotel was full and they offer van service to the MTA station or LaGuardia. Problem only one 6 passanger van (Dodge Caravan size) Created a problem in getting to the station to go in town... more

What a fabulous hotel for the value minded traveller! Although a little different than most Best Westerns (property used to be a girls school, older building), this hotel has so many positives that I have difficulty reading some of the other posted reviews. Rooms were quite comfortable, clean and well furnished. The manager, Mohammed (spelling?) was very welcoming and had... more

We were very pleased with the hotel. A shuttle picked us up from the airport. It took awhile but the traffic was bad plus the rain had caused some problems. The room was nice. and big not like some we had looked into earlier. We were very surprised when we went down to breakfast the next morning. We were led... more

Needed a place near the Steiner Studios at the Brooklyn Navy Yard for Barry Manilow PBS taping. Did some research and saw that this one was 5 miles away and La Guardia was around 7 miles away. Took a chance but was nervous because of the great price...$138. Free shuttle to and from the airport. Called the hotel from airport... more

We were looking for an affordable NYC hotel for the U.S. Open. Had very low expectations of this hotel and were pleasantly surprised. It's an old school (the "Girls" entrance is still visible). Yes, the carpet is worn and the furniture a bit run down. But the bed was comfortable (the mattress was pretty new). The continental breakfast was MUCH... more
