As those of us who travel on Long Island know, there aren't a lot of choices for hotels. The Rockville Center Hotel is a gem and a great value. The room rates are significantly less than the other two quality hotels in Rockville Center. The staff is friendly and helpful, especially Alex, one of the front desk clerks...for instance, I accidentally left my car keys near the front desk, and he figured out whose they were and called my room. And he has great recommendations for restaurants. The rooms are spacious and well maintained. (I have stayed at the hotel 3x.) The lobby and dining area are spacious. The dining area is for breakfast, which comes with your daily rate, They have an excellent continental breakfast, and each guest can get scrambled eggs (not runny!) and bacon too. They do not have a gym or pool, but they do have an arrangement with a nearby gym. The hotel is in a great location: it's on the border of Lynbrook and Rockville Center. Even though it's on Sunrise highway, it's very quiet in the hotel..very thick walls. I will be going back there in a few days. :)
Delta cancelled my flight. That was the only place available. I didn't read reviews before.... Given it's a 2 star hotel, I didn't expect much. Arrived at 2:30am. Person at the counter was helpful. Ordéred a taxi for us. Bathroom was clean. The sheets not very clean. I checked for bed bugs. Didn't see any so I went to sleep for 4 hours. Wanted to take a shower in the morning. Cold water, but waited few minutes and then got hot water. Noticed that the room had a fridge and there were microwaves at the entrance. Of course for this short stay I didn't use either one. Not recommended, but was ok for what I needed. Heard from 2 other people from our flight. One had a similar experience. The other one had worse. Reading the reviews and hearing this,I will not go back even in a similar situation.
