Comfort Inn Long Island City - Long Island City

Higher than expected quality/service for a reasonably priced room in New York. Room was small but otherwise fine. Only downsides were toilet seat was old/chipped (but clean!) and some outlets didn't work but fortunately I noticed my phone wasn't charging so moved it and wasn't a problem.

A nice hotel for budget conscious travelers to the Big Apple. Although the neighborhood is not the best, the hotel is a short walk to the Queensboro station with a 7 Line to Grand Central/Times Square and a N/Q Line to Central Park/Times Square/Herald Square/Battery Park. We did not get our USA Today newspaper as advertised, but all else fit the bill. […] The continental breakfast was adequate. WiFi worked fine. Exercise room and public computers available as well.

Really close to different subway routes to manhattan is a plus, several restaurants (regular food) in walikng distance, and hotel staff really friendly. Roof access for an amazing view of manhattan

The location is good and convenient but the neighborhood is a bit dangerous though. The room is a bit small, and there is too little space between the bed and the table. But the breakfast is fine.

Good value for $$$. Great breakfast!

The hotel is in Queens which is not the nicest neighborhood, but the location of the hotel is right next to the subway system. The rooms were small. Breakfast was good. The front desk management was not very friendly or helpful in finding our way around. We found it very convenient for sleeping and having breakfast then heading out on the subway!

My mother and I were visiting Manhattan and this hotel was really close to the subway. It's a close quick ride to Manhattan. The neighborhood might not look nice but it was safe. We had a nice stay. The hotel was clean and the breakfast was like most free hotel breakfast, cereal, yogurt, toast, donuts, boiled eggs, juice, coffee and tea. They also had […] eggs and sausage but they are the frozen kind that have been reheated. We stayed for three nights. I would recommend this hotel. Read more

Awesome location if you need to commute to Manhattan on daily basis. Breakfast & Internet provided. Courteous and very helpful staff. Surroundings are ok but lack of good restaurants nearby, rooms are small but clean n comfy, lacks a fridge but a big LCD tv is a plus. Over all recommended for decent budget stay nearby NYC.

My husband and I wanted a cheap place to sleep and put our stuff while we saw the sights for the weekend. We wanted a place that was close to the subway and this hotel fit the bill nicely. Friendly staff, yummy free breakfast, clean room and we even found free parking on the street. Nothing fancy but basic, safe and well maintained. We will stay here […] again. Read more

While the hotel is close to public transportation, its located in the "bad" side of the neighborhood. My room had a view of an empty lot filled with what looked like trash bins and there are no other establishments on the street. Most of the buildings surrounding the hotel are dilapidated and some are abandoned. My room smelled really horrible. The […] window and shower curtains smelled like used gym clothes, and there was a fainst smell of urine in the carpet, which badly needs to be shampooed. The room was terribly small and you can hear the footsteps from the room upstairs, as well as movement from the room next to mine. This was a total waste of money. Read more

1) over rated pricey, definitively not worth it 2) the king rooms are very small considering the average hotel rooms 3) the location is car to find, under the bridge 4) the hotel has no parking, u have to park in the meters on the street 5)no near by resturants to eat or order take out defintliy not worth it for the money or the time

Mediocre hotel in the middle of an unattractive industrial neighborhood. Room was clean and comfortable and the free breakfast will hold you over until you get to real food. I would only recommend this hotel for budget reasons.

this hotel was alot more than I expected and the price for one night was perfect. The location is great near the subway close to both brooklyn and manhattan. The comfort and cleanliness of the room was great and the staff were very friendly and helpful. I would highly reccomend this hotel to others and plan on using it again in the future!

It's fine for what it is: an affordable overnight stay close to NYC.

Stayed 2 nights. Hotel was decently clean, staff was helpful, reponsive and courteous. Breakfast was good for the rate they were charging. Very close to Queensborough Plaza station, 15 minutes ride to 34th St. Only problem is the noise from neighboring construction sites which can keep you up at night.

Great location, fine room, great heater, good staff. I stay at fine hotels in Vegas frequently and am used to having something (like an extra sheet) covering the blanket, something the Comfort Inn does not do. If the blanket in the room was not exposed I would rate this hotel a "5".

The room was clean and well kept as well as the hotel. The price was reasonable considering the amenenities, the breakfast and the zize. It is very good if you are just staying the night or just need a break from real-life.

We booked the Comfort Innn Long Island City because Manhattan Hotels were extremely expensive in September. Room was clean and the size was ok. Room and Bathroom looked pretty new and were cleaned daily. Location is 1 block away from subway; Several lines bring you to to Manhattan quickly. A few services nearby: deli, minimarket etc. But also many […] empty buildings or construction in progress. Never felt unsafe walking to Hotel at night. Next time I would book a Manahattan hotel for the better location: close to Restaurants, attractions etc. But I do recommend this hotel if other hotel prices go sky-high in the popular months. Restaurant tip: Da Gianni's, just 3 blocks south from Hotel. Read more

This hotel is located right at the end of Queensborough bridge in Long Island City. Overall we were pretty satisfied with the value we got for the money paid. It was pretty safe to walk late at night too. Pros: 1. One stop to Manhattan. Two subway stations within 5 min walk 2. Decent sized rooms for NYC standards 3. Standard complimentary breakfast […] & free Internet Cons: 1. You might not have a good first impression about the location. There is a junkyard nearby and the area looks bit run down. 2. No free parking.. we parked on the street. Read more

We were on a budget but needed to be close to Manhattan and this hotel was the closest to the city out of all the others along the "N" train. The reviews I checked were right on. The staff was outstanding and the hotel was clean with a nice breakfast each morning. The neighborhood was a little sketchy but we never felt uneasy after day one. A tasty […] little 24 hour deli sits on the corner, one short block away as does the Queensboro Plaza train stop. I would definitely stay here again. Read more

Great price for the location. Quick subway ride to Manhattan. Subway station is about 500ft away from hotel. Parking is available nearby, hassle free. Street parking is available or you can pay a daily fee at a lot up the street. If you want a comfortable, clean, and convenient place to stay while visiting NYC without spending a fortune in Manhattan, […] this is the place for you. Read more

I would recommend this hotel. For the money you give you get good accommodation next to the beating heart of NY. The only shock was the surrounding to which I got used after while. Nevertheless, if you like impressive view from the window, than scrap yard in front of window can satisfy you. Still, I was satisfied with the hotel and I would recommen […] d! Read more

Hotel was generally fine, very good location in Queens near the subway. The neighborhood looks a little run-down, but maybe that's just New York in this part of Queens. There is no hotel parking, you must find street parking. I was a little afraid to keep my car on the street, but nothing happened. (Although to be fair, there was glass on the ground […] in another place I saw, not sure if that was a result of theft or accident). Hotel staff was mixed - one guy was very nice, one guy was rude. The morning breakfast WAS AWESOME. A full breakfast included in the price. Room was a bit small, but that's expected in New York. Still very clean, bathroom was clean and had lots of light.

Is a 2 star hotel, but worth it. It you're just looking for a place to sleep at night, this is your hotel. The hotel is 1 mintue, 1 block from the train station. *There is no elevators at the Queensboro Plaza Station, so if you are bringing luggage, I suggest using the Queens Plaza Station, 2 blocks away from the hotel, which does have an elevator. It […] is near an industrializred area, but it was ok to walk from the train station to the hotel at night. The room was quite small, but it had a bed, desk, chair, and moderately sized bath room. The TV was old school and the picture color was off, but I was on vacation, so the TV isn't a big part of my vacation. There is high speed internet, wireless, that you have to connect every day, but easily done. The room did smell of, "water damage", is what I kept referring to it.. Like there was water leaking somewhere, none that I saw, and was drying up. Also, because the subway station is so close, and they run all night long, sometimes you could here the horn from the room. Other that that, I was able to sleep at night. Read more

This hotel definitely exceeds my expectation. Three things I really like: 1. The staff are really helpful. 2. Convenient to substation. 3. Free breakfast! For a two-star hotel, this is much more than you can expect. Definitely would come again.

The staff was rude.

I went to NYC on a hotel budget...why spend lots of money on a hotel that I am going to sleep in and thats it? I went to New York to see and experience NYC, not stay in the room! This is the perfect place to stay for people who want to spend their hard earned money on life, not lodging...probably not so good if you need to be pampered!...prices for […] hotels unbelievable in Manhattan...This hotel is in an industral area but never felt uncomfortable and there is a great sandwich shop on the corner! The subway station is right there with a very short ride to wherever you want to go! Room is small but I hear all rooms are small in NYC and staff were nice and helpful, room was clean and maids did well keeping it that way! The only bad thing I have to say about this location is if you have too much to drink or don't feel like taking the subway at night (which is perfectly safe), the cab drivers in downtown are not used to comming over the bridge and they get confused where the hotel is located! Make sure you take some cards from the hotel lobby and tell them you are at the base of the lower queensburrow bridge. Read more

Hotel is about a 15 min ride on the metro to times square. The location isn't bad but there really isn't anything in the area. The Metro is a short block away and I felt fairly safe walking the area at night. The only problem I had was as other reviewers have posted there is a scrapyard across the street and we had the misfortune of having it outside […] our window. But overall if your just looking for a place to sleep and a rate that is much lower than hotels in the city Comfort Inn LIC is a good choice. Read more

My experience tracked with that of other reviewers; this hotel had good facilities and excellent location for a budget hotel. It had been recently renovated, was clean with fairly big rooms, and had all the usual amenities, but don't expect glamour. Overall, it was a good value for the price. It is within 100 meters of the elevated subway line, so light […] sleepers should bring earplugs. The noise didn't interfere much with my sleep, although I'm a very light sleeper. The surrounding neighborhood is a light industrial area and looks rundown and dirty, but felt quite safe even after dark (kids, women, and office workers were still around). The neighborhood isn't gentrified yet, it's the "real" New York. Not many good sit-down restaurants close by, but many corner shops and cafes for carryout. Ask the desk clerk for directions to the more trendy areas within 20 mins walk or just go in to Manhattan if you want a nice dinner out. Hotel breakfast was adequate but the coffee was the worst I've had. Solved this problem by walking 10 meters out the lobby door to get a cuppa from the sidewalk cart vendor each morning. Read more

The good: good location for LIC, right next to Subway. Free breakfast which is pretty good. OK beds, free internet, free newspaper, all the normal stuff: TV, coffee in room, a/c, etc., nice bathrooms. free on street parking The bad: nothing is very close in this neighborhood, very limited eating options within a short walk. Room is small. a bit noisy, […] but it is NYC. Window view is a large dump. Top floor is hot in the summer; my room never cooled down and I had to move. Overall, not bad for the price if you want to be in this neighborhood. Read more

Pros: Very good rooms, decent staff, 2 minutes from the QueensBoro Subway Station and 3 minutes from Queens Plaza, giving access to wide variety of subway options. The locality is not exactly pristine, with some auto body shops right next to it, but we came in after midnight every night on the sub and found it pretty safe. Cons: Breakfast time says […] till 11 am but closes even a little before that-but the staff who cleared up everything noticed us coming in, and asked us what we needed and got it-but still I would have expected them to close maybe at 11 or 5 minutes after that after giving people a chance to take what they wanted. Printing SUCKS, they have some wierd software to control browsing in the common computer and that is really slow, so if you are planning on printing out maps before you leave, allow sufficient time for that.

Really close to subway stops, very nice staff, clean rooms, good continental breakfast. Neighborhood is a little rough looking, but I felt safe walking around at midnight, and it is Queens after all, so the neighborhood was expected to be this way. Rooms are small, but what isn't in New York? Overall, good value, good hotel, good experience.

We really enjoyed our stayed at this hotel, yes the breakfast room is small but if you ask for a tray you can take it to your room. The neighborhood is a bit scary at first but we walked every day and every night to the sub station which is 1/2 block from there nothing bad ever happened to us. So for the price, hotel and proximity to the sub is well […] worth to stay in this hotel Read more

We definitely had a great stay we were expecting a lot less but it was GREAT parking on the street very quiet area, looks sketchy but felt safer than Harlem!! 10 minutes we your time square! Good breakfast included.

We read the reviews before booking!! The hotel and our stay were wonderful, but we didn't expect 5-star service at a 2-star hotel either! We were looking for price, convenience and safety and we found all three at this hotel! Yes, the hotel does overlook a dump and the part of town does look run-down, but so do most of the old neighborhoods in NYC. […] The hotel looked almost new though. We weren't there to stay in the hotel all day anyway. We slept there then were off to see the city sights. We read in the reviews that the hotel had limited seating for breakfast, so we already expected to take it back to the room--no big deal: boiled eggs, waffles, fruit, muffins, doughnuts, coffee, tea, juice, toast, croissants, and cereal were among some of the choices for us to eat. (good breakfast!) Go around 8-8:30 there was still a lot to choose from. Free copy of newspapers each day. Also there's a diner one subway stop from the Queensboro Plaza, which is literally one block from the hotel. I think they had late hours. Take the 7 sub right into Grand Central, 5th Avenue or to Times Square in less than 15 minutes! My husband and I felt completely safe in and around the hotel, even when we arrived back at the hotel around 1:30 am one morning. We drove, and were aware of the limited parking. Luckily, we arrived mid-afternoon on a Sunday and could park on the street for our stay--no charge. Next time we go to NYC we will definitely go to this hotel. The beds were comfortable--lots of pillows. The only thing was our air had been turned off when we were out during the day??? Maybe they were trying to save energy. That's fine if it helps keep the rates down. Nevertheless, I would highly recommend this hotel for a great price and great service compared to hotels in Manhattan--save the money for shopping! Read the reviews. That will give you a good opinion of the hotel before you book. We already knew about the dump, limited breakfast seating and parking, so it wasn't a surprise and noth Read more
