A Bed Close to JFK
Perfect for what I needed: very basic, fair price, convenient parking, and real close to JFK. Joe at the front desk was helpful with a great attitude.Support stores next door.

Ok. Good and Bad.
People talking kind of loud in the hallway at 2 am, not really the motels fault. Good inch of light under the (hollow?) door. Heater dirty like dryer lint (most hotels have this problem). Everyone I interacted with at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. The view of the water and the breeze from the water is really great! Make sure you get a room facing the water not the street. A bit expensive for what you get but right now what isn’t expensive for what you get? Bit of a mixed bag. Good enough if you are easy going and flexible, not good enough if you are picky/ particular.

27 Sept 2019
After making the payment online, we get to the hotel and they told us that there’s no room for us, also that 3 people can be in the same room 😩 we asked the attendant what’s is the meaning of two bed in one room because that is what we booked for, so I and my family can’t be in a room? We end up booking another hotel. The management is very poor. My question is , how do I get my refund because we didn’t sleep in that hotel? Thanks
