Jackson Heights Historic District Hotels near New York

"Checking in and out was fast and easy. It looked like they were doing construction at the front of the building so you could miss the door if not paying attention. Loved the security of the elevator. It was my first experience like that. We had planned on eating at the breakfast, however we arrived at 7:30 and it was so busy and people were just stepping in front of you every where we decided to not eat."

"This property is very centrally located, however the rooms are small and the walls are thin. We stayed for 5 night and every night we woke up due to partying neighbors. "

"Make sure to visit Bo at the bar ,super nice guy , and makes a great whiskey Sour "

"Convenient and clean "

"The location is the best thing about the property. The hotel is dated and needs upgrading. The bathroom had fresh, visible stains on the wall which was an indication that it isn't cleaned well. I was told that a room was available for check-in @ noon and when I arrived it was like I was forced to upgrade due to the front desk knowing that I was ready to settle in. I was told that I was getting a great view in the best room available. The view was horrible and I was charged an additional $40/night, which did not suffice @ all. I wouldn't return nor recommend. Well, that is if someone prioritizes location over amenities & accommodations. "

"I wanted to like our stay at Public, but it was a disaster. I initially booked three nights here for my girlfriend and I. There was no hot water for our entire stay - imagine having to take a cold shower in winter? - and there were constant alarms and announcements going off in the room which made it difficult to take meetings for work in the room. And if you order food and want to store leftovers in the refrigerator you can forget it. The refrigerator could hold a few small water bottles at most. And then during what I thought would be our final day there, multiple pipes burst in the hotel causing flooding and the elevators were disabled. Without use of the elevators, my girlfriend could not make it to the airport as she had a lot of luggage. So she had to reschedule her flight and I had to book another night. I was surprised to see a $45 dollar “All access fee” added on to the bill. And we had to hear workers yelling and cursing as they tried to clean up the mess. We were offered a room upgrade because of the trouble, and the new room was nice, but there were still loud announcements in the room, and we were even questioned by a goon from security as to why we were moving our luggage from the old room to the new room. I had to explain to them we got an upgrade, which I should not have had to do. Because of our troubles above, someone called Leilani who works at the hotel reached out to me and offered a discount on our next stay"

"Love the place inexpensive and close to everything but has nothing to offer as far as bottled water, ice or in room refrigerator. Other than that Great."

"It was fine for what you pay for "

"A horrible old building where they tried to make it newer but it’s still old and the rooms are out dated and no fridge in the room. Horrible service "
