A good stay that requires some patience
"I always enjoy staying at the Paramount. A great location that is pretty organized. I appreciate the super-clean room.

A lot of construction going on in the general area so it's going to be more up market in the future.

Can be a big grubby in parts, but generally nice and there's enough metro stations to make it convenient to get to Manhattan or elsewhere from most places around LIC.

Subway train and people were friebdly in helping out with train traveling. Supermarket is different.

Did not spend time in Long Island. It was very quiet, with some good convenience stores and fast food outlets. Access to New York was important to us more so than Long Island City itself. The walk across the bridge over the East River was worthwhile.

3/5 - Okay

It's a factory district. There's nothing to do, nowhere to go, and no one on the street. So it was quiet and if you're looking to spend time in Manhattan and then just sleep in the hotel it's good enough.
