MatLDZ Posted June 20, 2009 Report Posted June 20, 2009 Well, definitely not what I wanted, but the price is OK. Has anyone stayed there? The reviews on Expedia and Tripadvisor are quite bad, so I don't know what to expect.
thereuare Posted June 20, 2009 Report Posted June 20, 2009 Welcome to BetterBidding!Thank you for sharing your results with the board.Not sure what you were expecting, and while i'm not familiar with this particular property, i am familiar with the area, and it's not one known for very good hotels. I'm not sure the purpose of your stay, but unless you have a reason to be in this particular area, i don't see any reason to bid this zone for a 2 week stay... if you're looking for a convenient, lower cost, substitute to Manhattan this isn't exactly it.Feel free to ask for help before bidding for your next 'opaque hotel' purchase and please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your future travel plans.Enjoy your stay.

MatLDZ Posted June 21, 2009 Author Report Posted June 21, 2009 Well, I wanted to stay at Queens/Flushing. Last year I 'won' Extended Stay America LGA and it is a great place to stay. I find Flushing to be a very enjoyable part of the city, where I feel safe even during night. This hotel is halfway between Mahattan and Shea Stadium, so the location is not bad. Unfortunately the reviews are bad. I'd always prefer Queens over NJ for a lower cost alternative to Manhattan. I definitely made a mistake bidding 14 night stay at one time. Should have bid 7+7 days, but now it's too late to change anything...
