Royal Inn, Manhasset

was too tired to do research on this place when we got there. Big mistake. room was nasty. smelled bad. bathroom so small, it had a child toilet seat. light fixtures hanging down, ceiling tiles missing, carpet looked and smelled bad. there was no mattress, it was a piece of plywood with some extra sheets on it. went back to front desk and asked for refund after being there for two minutes. we told them we were not stating there. we were told no refunds. we told them we would fight the credit card charge. DO NOT GO HERE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like that it is so quiet and that nobody bothers u and u can do what ever u want. The thing I hate the most is the parking alot and breaksfast service is not breaksfast it is a snack and some of the service sucks. there isnt alot of cable channel and the tv and no internet either.

The only thing I liked about this Inn was where in Manhasset it is located. First of all the parking is a nightmare, as the restaurant next door (valet parking) parks cars all over in the same lot as the motel. We had a wake to go to at night and had a terrible time trying to get our van out of the space with an SUV parked behind us (pretty much blocking our way out). Thank goodness it was neither a hot nor a cold night, as the "unit" was plugged in, but neither the air nor the heat worked. We were told there was a continental breakfast starting at 7. At 7:20 a.m. the food had not yet showed up. We had a funeral to attend and could not wait for the food to arrive. Near our nightstand there were some wires sticking out of the wall. Have no idea what they went to, just hanging there. We stayed in this motel about 19 years ago and things were bad then. Thought they would have improved, but they really have not. Also, price is all over the map. The website has one price, they will give you another and in the end it's hard to tell where they got the amount from. If you are still interested in staying there, check out the price on the web before you pay the way overpriced amount that they will charge you if you don't question it.

Spent a few sweaty hours in a room here and gotta say can't beat the price. Private parking helps avoid unwanted eyes and the restaurant next door will provide an alibi if you need to account for your time. the room was clean and a full wall mirror added just the right touch.

tHE PLACE WAS FOR CERTAIN PEOPLE WHO MAKE A LIVING AT CHEAP MOTEL, i WOULDN'T CAll it the royal inn more like the junky inn. Manhasset needs a decent motel or hotel. I needed a place not too expensive but clean and neat and decent furnishings and a good smell to it, bedding not so cheap, floor not falling thru and hearing all the sounds of everyone staying there. I was visiting my grandchildren in portwashington, I prefer to stay at a motel then be in the way. This place was so bad. Was only worth $50.00 if anything

The hotel is well located if you are going to be in the northshore area.Room service was the best i've seen in any hotel that we have stayed at in a very long time. the rooms decor is dated and they are in the mitest of renovating the entire hotel. good heat excellent hot water. limited pecks. not internet acess except was able to pick up weak wifi siginal at night. twin bds for 3 days and nights came to a total of $450.00 including taxes . i thought was very good price for area.

We stayed at the royal Inn for a wedding. My wife put her diamond earrings in tissue paper and it got thrown into the garbage. The whole staff went looking in every plastic garbage bag and into the garbage container till they located these very expensive earrings.They saved us from having a miserable experience. Whenever we asked for something like more towels or hair dryer or hangers ,they were there in a minute.The room was large and comfortable.I would recommend this place to anyone.

My family stayed there in two rooms for four days. My room had a bathroom fan that was so noisy it was like a jackhammer. It took two days to get it fixed (all they did was disconnect it so I had no fan for the next two days). The vending machine on the second floor was out of order, with no sign posted. I was told at the beginning that my credit card would not be charged until the end of my stay, but that didn't happen - not only did they charge my account every day, they *overcharged* me by over $700 that I'm in the process of trying to get back. DO NOT STAY HERE!

The thermostat was broken and the room was about 80 degrees, in February. We moved to a different room, same story. Very basic and threadbare. They charged my VISA for an extra night and it took months to get my money back. The Chinese restaurant next door is good though.
