Comfy stay in a beautiful room near Manhattan
Pros:

Great value for a stay close to Manhattan! Our room was very spacious and had a dining table, kitchenette, and small balcony with a nice view. The staff were also very friendly and helpful. The hotel is located in a more residential neighbourhood but there is a deli / convenience store right next door and the subway stops are 5-10 minute walks away.

Pros:

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.

Pros:

There is actually no parking on the property as listing states. Parking is 2 blocks down the street in the garage that hotel partners with. Considering the area, if you are woman staying alone or with child, i would not recommend staying here.
