Microtel Inn by Wyndham Long Island City

It’s alright here. 4.5 stars for the location - It’s close to the metro. There’s a building beside/behind the hotel that’s got a roof top area where people hang out and listen to music. It’s not loud, but the sound does travel and can be bothersome when you’re trying to catch some sleep (or sensitive to noise). 3 stars for cleanliness - There was definitely some hair on the bathroom floor that did not belong to me. Made me question whether they gave the bathroom a (deep) clean after the last guests checked out. 5 stars for service - Hotel was kind and pleasant. Our safe ran out of batteries and they had someone fix that immediately. Overall, it was a great stay. Our room had its own thermostat so I’m assuming the other rooms had it too. Read reviews about the rooms being too cold, but we played with the temperature in ours and it was just fine. The water does take a while to heat up (sometimes), but at least there’s hot water and it stays hot. During our stay, we didn’t have to wait for the water to warm up in the day time, but it took 10 mins to warm up in the evenings. Didn’t bother checking out their breakfast, but wouldn’t care to have it anyway as there are so many options out there! You get what you pay for. It’s a cheaper hotel, but if it’s just a place to clean up and sleep for you, this has all the basic necessities you need. Also, wi fi great here!

It was a good hotel. No weird stains. There was an ice machine which was nice. I wish there was a tub, but it was the cheapest hotel with 4+ stars so I’m not complaining. There are more expensive hotels that are worse. The sheets were clean, the amenities were modern, check-in was easy. I had a problem with cancellation, called the front desk, and they took care of it easily. Look, I’m not picky. Sure, the breakfast might not be a lot. Who cares lol. It’s a good hotel room with no problems. If it’s too cold set it higher and wait a little, run the shower if you have to heat it up. It’s good.

My room was a freeze box. The heat didn’t work it just pumped ice cold air. Apparently there is no heat in the hotel as they turn it off completely for summer. No spare blanket in the room, had to call and ask and it took 2 hours for someone to bring to the room. There is also no bottled water or vending machines. So just bathroom faucet water if you’re thirsty. Breakfast was…. Well, what breakfast? Basket of yoghurts and a basket of cereal bars. I didn’t eat either, that’s not a continental breakfast Check in took forever. Probably because of the deposit you have to pay. Didn’t care about the deposit, but it’s 2022 processes should be getting faster, not like 20 years ago it was awkward how long it took. Can’t imagine what it’s like at a peak check in time

Solid, clean place. I was surprised that not much noise from outside gets in, considering how close the hotel is to the train (very convenient for taking the N/W). However, noise between rooms does travel. Wasn’t too bad. The room was nice, nicely done sheets, plenty of towels, nice little closet and coffee maker. No microwave or mini-fridge, which was a bummer. The morning breakfast is pretty pitiful: coffee, tea, boxed orange juice, plastic fruit cups, yogurt. Service is kind and responsive, but mask wearing was spotty even though the front door says “you must wear a mask to enter.” However, all that said, it’s a very affordable place to stay and is solid for the price.
