The shuttle commonly operates hourly with pickup at Federal Circle, so some guests experience waits or confusion, while others find it timely and convenient. The setting is close to JFK with fast-food and basic shopping within walking distance. Expect a simple, no-frills overnight.

This hotel is fine. It's an airport hotel with a shuttle. The room was clean, the staff was friendly, the shuttle operated on time, and they had some small breakfast items out in the morning. The only complaint I have is the same complaint I have with every hotel at JFK. They're way too expensive. This is not a $250 a night hotel, no matter how good and well kept the property is. This is like a Fairfield Inn or Garden Inn. The price should be closer to $120-$140 a night. But it's JFK so...

Industrial area with limited food offerings nearby and no pharmacy/ quick shops close (except Costco). Interior hallways were updated and fresh. Elevator shows it's age. Bedrooms are serviceable but not noteworthy. Small TV, no closet, decent sized dressers, ample lighting, good blackout curtains. Downside was lumpy/ squeaky bed, wall HVAC, off tub stopper, and noise from adjacent Burger King. Staff was helpful. JFK shuttle was punctual and clean. If you just need sleep on a layover and aren't picky about food, this spot will do the trick at about $200-225 less than TWA hotel.

The hotel is old ! It needs simple USB plugs like all the other hotels. Free parking was great ! Location was Great, the bed was very comfortable. Just the entire hotel was beat up and in need of updating especially for the price. Cleaning Staff were wonderful also.

The hotel is older, which I expected. The room looked okay, but the bathroom was filthy. There were long hairs everywhere and what appeared to be curly pubic hair in the shower and on the bathroom floor. The toilet also had what looked like poop smears in the bowl. I should have notified the staff, but after traveling for hours with small kids, I just couldn't bring myself to ask to switch rooms. We stayed for about eight hours. On the positive side, the airport shuttle was convenient, and the driver was great.

Good for an airport hotel, some noise with people arriving late at night which is understandable. Airport shuttle was ideal. One real complaint, the bed was squeaky which is a sign of age of some of the fittings and furniture.

I was told she would send someone in about ten minutes because it would take a while for me to get to where I would be picked up then I was waiting in the cold for 25 minute to be picked up. Then I got to the hotel same lady from the phone again rude during check in and then again on the phone when setting up shuttle back to the airport for the morning. I come to New York every few weeks. I do not think I will be staying here again.

At times felt they were disrespectful and discriminatory too. Except for the shuttle drivers and one of the staff in laundry everyone was curt. Overall an extremely bad stay.

I can't speak about the area around the property. Our flight itinerary included an overnight layover so we arrived after dark, showered, slept, and were out before daylight. The shuttle was perfect for our needs. The front desk staff were pleasant and helpful. A nice coffee/tea station was ready and waiting in the lobby when we arrived. Our room was clean and spacious. We would definitely stay again if we were flying in/out of JFK and needed a room.The only improvement we would suggest is to upgrade the towels.

The shuttle service is good and efficient, but the breakfast is terrible. For the high price, they only serve coffee, bread, and cereal — nothing else. It’s completely misleading that Hotels.com advertises “breakfast included.” The platform should verify the real services offered before publishing this kind of information. Guests deserve accurate details, not false expectations.
