10/10 Excellent
"Was in Queens for 3 day for a music festival at Forrest Hills. Super convenient to subway & LIRR. Staff was nice and attentive. Room was clean a spacious. Not a ton to do/see in the immediate neighborhood, but for the price it was a great option for us. Would definitely stay there again if heading to Forest Hills for a show and staying overnight."
