Comfort Inn Long Island City, Long Island City

i liked that it was very close to the subway... clean rooms service very nice. it was a very nice and comfortable experience. i would recommend to others

recently spent nearly a week at the comfort inn in long island city and virtually everyting was first rate. good breakfasts, extremely helpful people at the front desk, great location and costs 50 percent less than a manhattan hotel. take the M60 bus to the N or W line, go five stops and get off at queensboro plaza. the hotel is less than 100 yards from the subway stop, which is one stop from manhattan. i was there to see the the mets play. very convenient to both shea and yankee stadiums. the surrounding area isn't the ritz, but there's a security guard at the hotel. i would definitely return. doug mead, winston-salem, nc

We keep coming back to this hotel. It's just so clean, close to the subway and the staff is so knowledgeable about the area and transportation. We get free maps and breakfast and hi speed internet. We're not looking for more. It's better to stay here than to pay those hefty prices in midtown Manhattan with dirty rooms and rude staff.

My granddaughter and I just returned from a first-time trip to NYC. We booked our room at the Comfort Inn online and I must admit I was a bit hesitant because of some of the reviews. I hope people read this review and feel confident that it is a great place to stay. The service was excellet! Everyone was friendly and helpful. The room was very clean and everything worked perfectly. The room was small, but all we really did was sleep there so it was just fine. The bathroom was large and clean and we had plenty of towels and hot water...nothing to complain about. I would highly recommend this room to anyone who would rather spend their money on shopping and sightseeing rather than a pricey place to stay. The neighborhood was fine...no problems for us at all. We flew into Laguardia, took the Q33 bus to Roosevelt where we got on the #7 subway to Queensborough Plaza. From the subway, the motel is a 3 minute walk. Very convenient! I will definitely stay there again.

The area outside the Hotel is a total dump. The room was nice and a little bit clean so was the Bathroom. It is also a convenient Location because it's so close to the Subway.

This hotel gave us a good feeling right from the beginning. Quiet neighborhood but so close to Manhattan. Subway close, half a block. 5-10 minutes from Times Square or Grand Central. Rooms were small but cosy. After a long day in the city it felt like coming home. Since we hade a late afternoon flight the staff let us have the room a couple of hours longer. Thanks! Overall: Good value,nice breakfast,nice staff,good location.

We were at this hotel for 8 nights and really enjoyed our stay. The staff are friendly but not too 'in your face' friendly, which is nice. They pretty much leave you to get on with your own thing and provide help or information on request, so don't feel afraid to ask for or about things! The hotel offers continental breakfast in the mornings between 6 and 10 on weekdays and until 11 on weekends. Free tea and coffee is available 24 hours! Breakfast is lovely.. fresh fruit, yoghurt, cereal, boiled eggs, muffins, waffles, toast.. the list goes on! Internet access and gym facilities available to all guests. The rooms are fairly small, but reasonable. Bathroom was lovely and modern. Decoration in the bedroom itself wasnt too bad. There was room service everyday except Sunday, although, I'm not sure that the bed sheets were changed. The water from the bath tap didnt run very hot which wasnt nice, especially as it was winter! The sink tap was fine though. TV and safe in room along with ironing facilities. Coffee machine available on request. There was a musty smell in the room and floor level, but we were in a smoking room, so maybe thats got a lot to do with it. You feel wiery in the area because it is a little run down and rough looking. However, we never once felt threatened or intimidated and we had no problems. The hotel is about a 1 minute walk to queensboro plaza station, where you can get the number 7 train into times square. This will take roughly 7 mins. Trains in manhaaten are VERY frequent. If staying for 7+ days, get the unlimited ride metro card for $24. Great value for money. Overall great place to stay in and much cheaper then staying in Manhatten but literally minutes away. Put it this way. We had tickets to a broadway show at 7 pm and were running very late. Left our hotel at 6:35pm and still made it to broadway on time! Thats how close it is! Would definately recommend this place and would definately stay again.

After I accidentally discovered this hotel, I have not stayed anywhere else. It is just so convenient to travel back and forth to Manhattan or anywhere because all the trains are at the footsteps. Once I got my car and I could reach manhattan in 5 minutes. I would definitely recommend this hotel to any body who is travelling to the New York City area.

I would recommend this place primarily to travelers visiting NY but don't want to spring the $200+/night for a place they pretty much will be using to sleep and shower. It's primary selling point is location. It's 1.5 short blocks (the 1/20 mi blocks, not 1/6) to an elevated walkway for Queensboro Plaza station. This means convinent access to the N, W, and 7 trains that get you where you need to go in Manhattan or Flushing for that matter. It's a short ride onto the island, probably about 5-10min or 4-5 stops. The 7 is fairly frequent even at night, although double check the schedule. I cannot emphasize how convinent it was!!! I could go into the city, come back to change or take a break and go right back in there. Outside, the neighborhood looks sketch, but it is fairly harmless. There aren't any shady characters or anything that would trigger concern for personal safety, its just kind of empty. There's Kennedy's Pizza which is open 24 hours and makes for a nice way point from the subway station. The rooms themselves are fine, but small. Think enough space for the bed and dresser/TV hutch and that's about it. The bathrooms were pretty normal sized though. The rooms were clean and there was daily room service. The hotel seems new, which helps too! There's 2 workstations downstairs with internet and printing capabilities; good for boarding passes. There's also free WiFi throughtout the building. The breakfast was alright. Usual hotel continental breakfast (cereal, oatmeal packets, donuts, bagels, fruit, boiled eggs), but it is free and a good way to get the day started! There's also free tea and coffee throughout the day. The staff was friendly. Make sure to ask them for a subway map! If your coming in from JFK or LGA, with a lot of stuff, I would recommend using the "shuttle" (actually its just a taxi), but if your a light traveller, it might be easy enough to do by subway.

I chose to stay in Comfort Inn Long Island City for my family’s and my short visit in NY. The neighborhood wasn’t very beautiful but it was really convenient. 2 minutes walk to subway station, Queensboro; taking a cab from Manhattan to hotel costs about $15~18. The room was small but clean I had a pretty nice bathroom though. If you come here, don’t skip the complimentary breakfast, we loved it. For those travelers who have tight budgets, this is a good choice. In the end of the trip my husband told me that he wouldn’t mind staying in this hotel again next time we are in NY. I recommend it!
