Pros:

Room was clean and spacious, bed was comfortable, toiletries were nice.

Cons:

Minimalist design was too extreme - only one hard wood chair in room, no comfy chair to sit in. Paid extra for a balcony which had a high wall around it and no view , only cold metal chairs. No switch by bed to turn off light.

Le confort et le style à deux pas de Manhattan pour un prix plus raisonnable.
Pros:

Le Boro Hotel a du caractère, il est stylé. Entre minimaliste et brutaliste. Il offre un grand confort; espace, lits confortables, restauration à deux pas de Manhattan pour un prix légèrement inférieur.
Le personnel est charmant et accueillant avec une réception toujours disponible.
Il est très accessible depuis La Guardia airport, très pratique pour les vols intérieurs. Les chambres aux étages supérieurs offrent une belle vue sur la ville et sont très lumineuses.

Cons:

Le quartier n'est pas très animé, peu/pas de restaurants ou petits commerces de qualité à proximité.

Love Queens, great staff
Pros:

I had a pretty room with a balcony! Giant big bed, great shower, very comfortable. Staff was really, really nice.

Cons:

The edges of the bed frame were sharp and with the black out curtains, watch out! Also, the tv was kind of hard to use, the clicker didn't work very well.

Cons:

Kind of an odd experience with checkout time. The front desk emphatically told half of our group that checkout was at 11am. The other half was told 12p. It’s weird to have two different checkout times based on who is checking in.

Estada excel·lent!
Pros:

La habitació és bastant gran, amb un llit ample i còmode, unes bones vistes i un lavabo complet i gran. A més, hi ha parada de metro a 5 minuts caminant i a 15 minuts en metro del centre.

great hotel!
Pros:

We were going to the US Open and wanted to find a hotel near the 7. This was it, 10 min walk from the subway. Such a modern hotel, spacious humongus rooms which you would never get it Manhattan!

Theres a gym I used every morning, a coffee shop downstairs and a beautiful rooftop with stunning views of Manhattan.

Few good restaurants nearby and safe & well lit at night. I would def stay there again!

Cons:

Bathroom pocket door was getting jammed sometimes. Small closet space & outlets are far from bed otherwise all good..

Agréable
Pros:

Localisation et chambre tres bien!
Proche de Manhattan avec une belle vue sur le queens !

Cons:

Pas mal de vis a vis
A l’accueil nous avons dû négocier pour avoir la chambre que nous avions booke via Booking car on avait au départ une chambre plus grande mais avec aucune vue sur la ville.
Nous n’avons pas pu utiliser certains plus de l’hôtel comme un verre de vin offert chaque soir comme l’horaire était très restrain (1h en fin de journée)

Great location and comfortable room!
Pros:

Great location - so quiet! And the room was quite large with a great shower!

Cons:

Bed wasn’t the most comfortable but not a dealbreaker
