The LIC Hotel is only one stop away from Manhattan but lots cheaper than Manhattan hotels. Should you need an accessible subway station, however, be advised that Court Square is only accessible going into town. Coming back, you'll have to climb stairs or go out of your way to find an escalator. The hotel's rooms are small and kind of bare bones. There's nothing to the pillows on the bed, so if you have neck or back problems, be warned. There's also not a lot of room around the bed, nor is there an electrical outlet easily reachable from the nightstand.

Stay was OK. Can hear everything in the hallway. The place appeared to be used as a low budget hotel more so than it is now or even some kind of boarding house. There is an odor in the rooms and the building. The bed was cheap and uncomfortable and It did not have the safest of feels. It was just a place to get some sleep from being in the hospital all day. I would not stay again if I didn't have to.

Loved our stay at this hotel. Breakfast was great, w/ 24 hour coffee bar, fitness, and the rooftop was incredible. Subway about 3 minute walk around the corner. Small boutique grocery stores, and restaurants within walking distance. Will stay again.

Clean and comfy hotel

Main areas of the hotel room including bathroom was pretty clean overall. Shower doors didnt close properly leaving a small gap where water can seep but not an issue. Room as a safe, clothes hanger and clean drawers. Breakfast was included and their food was simple but tasty. Hot water and microwave available at the cafe throughout the day too. Doors are pretty thin so noise from the hallway can resonate.

We stayed here for our surprise engagement for 4 nights in March. It’s very walkable, close to target, and close to the subway court street station. No complaints with staff or room, clean, everything worked. The one complaint: some of the towels smelled burnt or charcoal-ly. Other than that, great stay, could get to midtown in 15-20 minutes

Great deal and location! Minuses: wifi and noise

Good: I was able to find a very good price for a one night stay. Convenient location in Long Island City, Queens, NY. Room and bathroom very clean and new-looking. Heat and A/C easy to control. Bathroom has excellent water pressure and temperature. Pre-check-in online was super smooth, and front desk was helpful. Less good: I'm not sure whether or not the TV worked because it was so slow responding to button presses that I gave up. Wifi goes in and out, does not meet my expectations for a hotel in 2025. This hotel's construction seems to convey noise instead of dampening it - I was woken up multiple times by doors closing in the same hallway, etc. Not a good choice if you are a light sleeper, but it didn't bother me that much. Overall: a great deal in a great location, but not quite 5 stars

Location a little off path, but close to metro and easy access to both Manhattan and airports. Price was great considering breakfast was included. Because it was off the normal path, it was quieter than downtown Manhattan. We will definitely stay here again.
