Have stayed at many places in LIC, several times each, and this place is in the top rank, IMO. Relatively new, so it is clean and in good shape. Very close to two subway stations, from which you can get to anywhere. Lots of dining options in the area, especially for Asian food. What really distinguishes it for me is the staff - they are the most friendly and helpful of any of the places I have stayed.
