"The location is in a great place but it is a rougher section of queens that is very dirty and has a unique night life of sales the property itself is amazing and well kept and all hotels should take notes on how to properly update a hotel The breakfast was amazing but better add 10 mins to your time as the elevator wait times to get there can be a bit and they do close down at the time so you better not think your walking in with one min left and having a full course meal"
