2-Star Hotels in Ronkonkoma

Stayed here because it was close to a wedding we were attending. Room was smaller than average big chain hotels but not really an issue for us. Had a king size bed in a non-smoking room that was actually soft and not hard as most hotel beds normally are. Room was clean and on 1st floor which was nice. Room also came with a microwave and refrigerator which was great for the leftovers we had. No iron or coffee maker but again, wasn't an issue for us but if you needed one, the room didn't have it. The breakfast area was closed to COVID which we had expected. Felt like we were in a safe area. Check in/out staff people were friendly & helpful.

This hotel is well located near the local airport. But unfortunately this is a very tired hotel and desperately in need of total refurbishment. It is hopelessly rundown. While there is a restaurant on site we didn’t eat there. Saw no one in it at all. Chose to eat at the diner across the road. Choice Hotels needs to give this a total make over. I don’t recommend this property.

I stayed here for two nights on a business trip. I’m a loyal Hilton guest but this was my first time staying at this particular hotel. Staff were super friendly throughout my stay and my room was large, airy and very clean, though the floor of my bathroom was a tad sticky and the lighting in the room is poor unless you turn on all the lights… I slept like a baby on both nights — it was super quiet at night (though you can hear people in their rooms as you walk down the corridors), the bed was suuuuuper comfortable and the room temperature just right! I still remain surprised at the lack of recycling efforts in guest rooms (a downfall of most Hiltons, unfortunately) and I was also surprised at the lack of toiletries provided in the bathroom (see photo).……..and the shower was in a very strange position — you had to squeeze in next to the toilet in order to open the sliding door and turn on the tap, else go fully into the shower from the other end and get wet whilst you turn it on. Very poor engineering! All this aside, my stay was overall a good one — and I’d no doubt stay here again — but there were two things that didn’t fly well with me (two things that may be fine for others!) 1. They have a VERY small gym — small especially for the size of the hotel. When I tried to use it on the first morning of my stay (around 6.15am) it was already “packed” and only one treadmill was working. I ended up leaving as there simply wasn’t any room for another person. There’s also no water or water fountain in the gym (I asked reception about where I could fill my bottle and they said they didn’t have anywhere to do this — so make sure you take a full bottle into the gym with you!), there’s no hand sanitizer, and there were no gym towels on the second morning of my stay. As someone who chooses their hotel based in part on access to a decent fitness center, this was a disappointing part of my stay. 2. There was a strong smell of cigarette smoke on the first floor — I’m very grateful I was staying on the 4th floor!
