Oyster Bay hotel rooms a the Independent

"There’s a great vibe here—easy going and comfort with style. The staff was friendly and helpful, even over the phone. Coffee and snacks at $3-4 each made the mornings great. NYC tourists are near a 1 train at 181st to head straight downtown with the bonus of but a diverse neighborhood and nearby parks and waterfront. A king suite was a perfect fit for a family of three with older child, plus had a stellar uptown view. "

"This had been one the best hotel stay this year. The front desk person, Ms. Yaya, was the best. She provided best service by giving us directions, make sure our room meet our expectations, and just being kind to the guests. An individual like her in this business is rare and a gem. The breakfast was awesome! The food was hot, fresh, and there were healthy opinions (love the turkey sausage and yogurt). The breakfast attendant, Mrs.Maria keep the food station fully and the tables were clean. Her attention to detail make it fun to come down with my family and enjoy the meal. The rooms were clean and bed were comfy. My husband love the body pillows on our king size bed. Over all look of the hotel was clean and well maintained. When I come back to NYC, I will be staying here, because it felt like you were treated as family. Thank you Mrs. Yaya and Mrs. Maria for making are stay great. "

"I stayed in New York with my family for Christmas, and overall it was very good. The beds were comfortable, but the floor and carpet weren't cleaned daily. During our 7-day stay, the carpet and floor were only cleaned once. Perhaps due to the holidays, toilet paper and tissues weren't replenished promptly; we had to call reception to have them delivered."

"Clean room and staff respectful"

"Immaculate "

"The room, while small, was very clean and had everything you need. The bathroom was small, but very nice. The shower was a good size. It did lack counter space. Also, if you stay in the winter, be aware it’s across from where the trucks get sand/salt for the roads. It definitely affects the traffic & is a bit noisy. We were on the 4th floor and after a day of walking, we were not bothered by the noise! Would stay again. "

"absolutely amazing, super clean!"
