Cute and affordable stay by JFK

This hotel gave us everything we needed for a short stay. Easy access to the subway, closeness to food, and a direct link to JKF. It gives you your basic necessities and the room service is always on time. The staff is attentive and friendly. Highly recommend for a decent, easygoing stay.
