What guests think

At Courtyard Long Island MacArthur Airport, travelers consistently praise the convenient location near the airport and train, the generally clean, comfortable rooms, and helpful front-desk staff, while also noting recurring drawbacks that affect value and ease of stay.

A frequent complaint is the paid, sometimes undisclosed, parking charge for an outdoor lot shared with nearby venues. Multiple reviews cite aging bathrooms and maintenance issues—mold or water damage, patchwork tubs, occasional hot‑water problems, and noisy or finicky HVAC—contrasted with comments about generous room sizes. Elevators are reported as slow or occasionally malfunctioning, though the lobby areas, pool or hot tub, and proximity to restaurants are appreciated. Overall, expect a convenient stay with mixed value and some maintenance trade‑offs.

Everything was fine except one of two elevators was out of service for the entire day, making waits twice as long as were tolerable. Also, phone light was flashing and couldn’t be turned off. We were told this was a system wide problemo

The elevator for guests had the appearance of a service elevator. My daughters got stuck in the elevator when it malfunctioned, and staff indicated to them that this was not an uncommon occurrence. Bathtub bottom was curved and slippery. Only one towel holder (in a room with two beds) made it difficult to dry towels. Outlets above nightstands were not tight enough to secure phone charger. Parking fee seemed excessive for this location. Breakfast "bistro" was closed, due to apparent staffing problem. On the plus side: staff was professional, room was comfortable, and on-site, free-standing restaurant/pub was excellent.

We checked in on Christmas Day. The manager very kindly e-mailed in advance a list of local restaurants that were open on Christmas Day. Check-in was quick. The room was quiet & the bed was comfortable. The location was convenient with 2 restaurants just across the parking lot. Something in the fitness room was chirping (a smoke alarm perhaps?). There were 10 & 20 pound dumb bells, but 15 lb dumb bells would be nice also!

we stayed at the Courtyard Marriott for 4 nights in Oct, 2025. Our stay was just ok. The hotel rooms showed some serious signs of wear and definitely can use an upgrade. The bathroom was less than appealing. The floor had cracks in the tiles, the bathtub had rust and mold around it. It looked old, dirty and dingy. The room was ok. The bed comforter which is supposed to be white was actually grayish. Microwave was old, coffee maker was horrible. Furniture in the room was chipped and cracked. total cost was 1200.00 for 4 nights. Definitely not worth the price.

The exterior and lobby area are very nice. The coffee shop/bar area was very convenient and upper scale for the type of hotel. The receptionists were always very helpful and nice. The room was not the greatest and the bathroom should really be inspected. There’s obvious water damage and mold everywhere, and you can tell they have tried to cover it for some time. We did hear multiple people complain about this at the desk. I don’t think I’ve ever seen that extent of water damage in a hotel room before.

We've stayed at Marriott hotels quite often when visiting family on Long Island, this one was fine but our bed was worn in. It was a king size bed with two pockets (dents) in it which made it difficult to get comfortable, but we made it work, it was only for one night. The heat from our room and the plumbing from the room above was a bit louder than I've experienced from previous stays at other locations.

I did not stay here. Please refund my money. When I got to the hotel, they did not have the Expedia reservation. The person at the front desk was very rude and said she had to go for an emergency to another floor and she was the only person working. I think she probably had to go see her boyfriend I would guess. Therefore, I had to go stay somewhere else.

They gave recommendations and travel tips….the big plus was that Ronkonkoma station was in walking distance..we did not have to use our car once! Thank you for the experience…top notch staff!!!

Good hotel. Solid 4 stars. You'll find the old wainscot panels in the elevators chipped away at the corners and the bathtub with caulk not maintained and a little black in some areas. Nothing to be concerned about. However, the lack of complimentary breakfast was a let down. I'm not sure at what point they removed free breakfast since I traveled last year, but no one told me it wasn't free. I woke up later than usual because I expected to eat properly in a timely fashion. I had to expedite my "food" and bought the $10 parfait and $7 Starbucks in the in-house Bistro. I have never seen a $10 parfait before and it being more expensive than an airport kind of makes me see the company in a negative light. Still 4 states though.

I really liked the pool and Jacuzzi area and the 24-hr snack shop. Check-in and check-out was very fast and efficient. Also, the food at The Bistro was excellent and very reasonably-priced. I understand that the hotel was recently remodeled and it shows. The decor is very tasteful and pleasant. Housekeeping is very responsive and parking is ample. There is only one thing that I didn't like about the hotel and that is the fact that my room faced the highway and the traffic noise bothered me sometimes. There is nothing really the hotel can do about that, though.

very nice hotel, room was in excellent condition. it would be nice if the bar stayed open past 10 on a saturday night still had a lot of people hanging in the lounge after closing. My one complaint was being charged for parking, that is not normal at a hotel in this area and was not mentioned at check in, and was kind of a hidden fee
