“a good place to get sleep”

this hotel is very easy to find, parking is free until 2pm, the room is clean but small. how can you ask too much for this money?

“DIAMOND EXPRESS INN, "IN THE ROUGH"”

I recently stayed at the Howard Johnson Express Inn, in Long Island Queens in the 1st week of March AND THE HOTEL WAS VERY NICE. No, joke it even shocked my girlfriend whom had never been to New York and even she was empressed. And, there was no noise while we were asleep. They keep the room clean everyday. No, one ever disturbed us not even other guest. The, subway way was only like a ten minute walk and it connected to everything. And, there was some decent cafe's and pizza parlors. THE HOWARD JOHNSON EXPRESS INN, ON QUEENS BLVD. WAS AND IS A "DIAMOND EXPRESS INN, "IN THE ROUGH".....

“Great little Queens hotel”

For the price, this was a great place to stay on my one night layover in New York. Room was small, but clean and cozy. Since this was a layover, I wasn't interested in anything other than a place to sleep and something to eat. There were several local restaurants that delivered. Staff was congenial.

“Affordable, comfortable and reasonable! Definately a revisit!”

We arrived very early and they were able to accomodate us with a room right away. The rooms were clean and excellent with coffee maker in the room. The staff was helpful and always brought us towels when we asked no matter what time. It was nice and close to the train which made it easy to get in and out of Manhattan easily. I highly recommend this hotel to people travelling to NY and don't want to pay a lot of money. We had a great stay!

“Can't wait to go back!”

It was a nice area and the hotel was very nice and clean.

“Excellent New York location with Subway proximity.”

Staff were very personable and the complimentary breakfast got us off to a good start each day.

“cheap price, excellent experience”

Howard Johnson in Queens is a great place to stay, closer to the subway, cheap, clean, The staff is really helpful, and if your looking to go to new york and see everything for a cheap price but in a good condition hotel, I recommend Howard Johnson in Queens 100%!!!!

“Very relaxing”

I arrived at the hotel and everything was in order - the associates were friendly and helpful. Check-in was speedy, the room was clean and it was very relaxing to be there. Continental breakfast was ready early in the morning. Check-out was smooth going. I have been at this hotel before and I would go back again. I highly recommend it.

“Not bad, not bad at all”

This was perfect for a one night stay. Big comfy bed, cheap cab ride from the airport (LGA) and in a nice enough neighborhood. Within walking distance from a bunch of different restaurants (pizza, asian, american; liquor stores galore!). We opted for a nice Vietnamese place that was well-priced and good. Pretty close to trains as well, not a place I would stay for more than a few nights but a cozy place to lay your head.

“Great value hotel in NYC”

I have recently returned from a five day stay at the Howard Johnson Express in Queens and have to say that I was very impressed. The hotel was very clean, our room was serviced each day and well looked after. The hotel is very well located in the residential Woodside area of Queens. It is located about a five minute walk from the subway station and the subway ride will take you to Grand Central Station or Times Square in about 10 minutes. The Q60 bus also stops directly outside the hotel, which takes you to 2nd Ave in Manhattan. The hotel is close to a number of eateries and is also very close to the Queens Centre Mall. Always felt vey safe in the area and travelling on the subway. This place is an excellent base if you are wanting to visit New York City and want to save money.
