Howard Beach is close to JFK airport and the Surfside Hotel was in the right place for a very reasonable price. So we knew before arriving that the room would not be anything special. And it wasn't. It's old and rundown and everything in it needs an update. However, it served its purpose for us and we got a decent night's sleep. The parking is free and convenient and the area is quite nice. The real downside was that despite many signs all over the hallways, people were smoking what smelled like both cigarettes and marijuana. Pretty stinky. But of price is an issue, it is okay for a night before or after a flight, and the Howard Beach Air Train station takes you directly to the airport. It is a bit to far to walk from that station to Surfside Hotel with luggage.

nice old motel, clean, quiet, has all well maintained basics, but only the basics. A comfortable bed, a dresser with drawers, night stands and lamps. Small bath with tub. Fast wifi. Ample parking. Nice view. Near JFK. That's all. No desk and chair for work. No coffee maker forhot drinking water. No closet to hang my coat andshirts..No shuttle. Taxi or Uber to or from JFKcost $25-30. A grocery store nearby. A very good Asian restaurant next door. Italian restaurants walking distance.

1. not a fan of the smoking in the rooms. 2. I think a better locking system should be updated ( keys in 21st century) lol.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

Ok. Good and Bad.

People talking kind of loud in the hallway at 2 am, not really the motels fault. Good inch of light under the (hollow?) door. Heater dirty like dryer lint (most hotels have this problem). Everyone I interacted with at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. The view of the water and the breeze from the water is really great! Make sure you get a room facing the water not the street. A bit expensive for what you get but right now what isn’t expensive for what you get? Bit of a mixed bag. Good enough if you are easy going and flexible, not good enough if you are picky/ particular.

2/10 Poor

After making the payment online, we get to the hotel and they told us that there’s no room for us, also that 3 people can be in the same room 😩 we asked the attendant what’s is the meaning of two bed in one room because that is what we booked for, so I and my family can’t be in a room? We end up booking another hotel. The management is very poor. My question is , how do I get my refund because we didn’t sleep in that hotel? Thanks

6/10 Good

The front desk staff was wonderful, friendly and efficient. The property itself was scary, you could hear every sound of people knocking on the doors of other rooms, the keys turning in the locks, the door to the room was flimsy with a tiny lock, you didn’t feel safe; and even though it was a non smoking room, all you smelled was smoke from the other rooms. It was like the Bates motel

It is a nice place. Everything but the weed smoking in the other room. If the weed stops I would not mind always going back.
