I stayed here over 4th of July weekend. My boyfriend had the room given to us by the band he was…read moreplaying with on Fire Island on July 3 when he asked if the band could help him with arrangements to stay someplace. While we were on Fire Island some of the workers laughed at us when we said we were staying here. I heard mixed things about the inn after the fact. That people go there for prostitution and that we basically stayed over night in a meth lab. I was trying to be positive when we walked in after we got off the ferry and my boyfriend and the band he was subbing with was finished with their show on Fire Island. I was telling my boyfriend it's okay, it's kitcshy. Good news, we weren't robbed, my car survived the night without getting damaged by anyone. Bad news, 5:30 AM we heard a woman screaming from the parking lot hysterically "Give me my money bro" She went on screaming for a good half hour maybe. I heard her and knocked back out because I can mostly sleep through anything. My boyfriend got up and told me he actually went to the hotel lobby to find someone to do something and no one was around. My take avoid staying here unless you have no choice, and you're in a serious jam.

They only have a new face out front. The non-smoking rooms and the smoking room is all smell the same. So if you're just a one night, stay to get to another destination, you can use this for you plan to stay in Bayshore for a while. I would pick another destination.

Specious room with kitchen and living area which is perfect for family and business trip like me. Plenty of parking spaces which is a plus. Another plus that this hotel is only less than 2 mins driving to grocery shopping and take out, dining restaurants.

Other than that, worth to stay !

We had a king bed studio room and the room was the perfect size for our extended stay. We were traveling with our baby and we were able to fit a pack and play, all of our luggage, the stroller, and had plenty of room to comfortably move around. The kitchen had a full size fridge/freezer, sink, microwave, stovetop, and basic cooking and eating necessities. The room and common areas of the hotel were clean and well-maintained. All of the staff we interacted with were extremely friendly, professional, and welcoming. The hotel had a decent array of free breakfast each morning. They also had an indoor pool, basketball hoop, and plenty of parking. The hotel is also right around the corner from the Long Island Ducks field. They ended up playing while we were visiting, so we made an impromptu trip to watch a game and had a quick and easy walk to the stadium. Our stay at the Residence Inn Long Island Islip/Courthouse Complex was more than we expected. We would definitely return in the future if the price was right.

Checking in was a breeze & that staff was friendly! The room was very clean & tidy upon arrival. If you're packing light there won't be a problem because they offer full size toiletries like; shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hand soap, lotion. A hair dryer is also available that even comes with the diffuser attachment! The shades can be drawn with an electric panel on the wall to keep the sun out. My room did not have closet space but did come equipped with an ironing board, iron, multiple dresser drawers & garment hooks. Outlets are a plenty for charging all of your devices while the tv offers a few free cable channels alongside streaming services you can log into. The tv even had my name on it when I came in, very welcoming. You can keep cold items in the mini fridge & heat them up in the microwave that's included. I didn't get a chance to check out the amenities but I did experience the breakfast included all days of my stay. They offer a variety of hot & cold breakfast items. Coffee is available 24/7 by the lobby & there is a small hotel shop with snacks & beverage offerings. I downloaded the app which was so convenient when it came to the room key, it's digital through the app! Overall, my stay was super comfortable & cozy. Loved it here!

OMG!! Nah, I'm seriously bugging out right now. This place already gave me bad vibes from the…read moresecond we checked in. It was dirty, old, and just felt... off. So I go on Google to leave my review for the Hollywood Motel in Farmingdale, and the FIRST thing that pops up is this news article saying TWO MEN WERE FOUND UNALIVE IN THE JACUZZI. HUH?! ARE YOU SERIOUS?! That's the SAME room we stayed in! We were literally sitting in that nasty old crusty jacuzzi like it was nothing. It wasn't even remodeled or replaced. So you're telling me two people died in that tub, they bodies were found soaking in there, and y'all just cleaned it up and rented the room back out like nothing ever happened? Ain't no way. I don't even care if they bleached that thing a thousand times. The thought alone got me sick to my stomach. I'm sitting here replaying it in my head and getting goosebumps. I would've NEVER gotten in that jacuzzi if I knew what happened in that room. Isn't there some kind of law where you gotta tell people somebody died in the room? Or at least remodel the place or rip that old jacuzzi out! Instead it's the same busted, ancient tub looking like it's been there since the '80s. I'm dead serious... I don't think I'm sleeping for a month after finding this out. This whole place creeped me out before I knew the story, and now it all makes sense. Never again. One of the most disturbing motel experiences l've ever had. One star is being generous.

Honestly, I'm only there to sleep so if I can't do that comfortably I can't come back :(

These are pictures of the bed which sunk in the middle because the frame was broken, dirty sheets (hopefully dirt and not dead bed bugs) and a moldy door frame into the bathroom. The latter 2 photos we didn't discover until the morning after we slept on the broken bed. The general manager, Sean Glancy who we corresponded with via email (no way to speak with him personally) was no help whatsoever. He told us via email that we would have to talk to booking.com before we would be given a 50% refund. We had no idea that our booking went through booking.com as my husband placed our reservation on the La Quinta website. After several unsuccessful attempts to handle this on line, my husband finally got through to a live person on the phone who took the information then put him " on hold" for what he said would be a few minutes. After holding for 2 hours and 10 minutes the call was ended by the booking agent. We still don't know the status of our refund. This is the worst experience we have ever had with a hotel. As a side note, the front desk staff were very polite and professional.

"On the expressway to your heart That expressway, not the…read morebest way At five o'clock It's much too crowded" (The Soul Survivors) Located right off the Long Island Expressway, and a few zig zags through industrial and retail parking lots, you'll find the Residence Inn Marriott. Check-in went smoothly and we had a very nice suite-like room with a kitchen, living room, bedroom, sink area, and bathroom. The bed was comfy, the HVAC controls worked fine, and the TV and WIFI were excellent. The shower temperature and pressure were perfect. However, there were some Annoying, Disappointing, and Absurd observations that impacted this three-star rating. What was Annoying? The bathroom fan and shower were guilty of annoyance in the first degree. When you turned on the light switch, the ceiling fan would slowly fire up and soon hit such a loud volume that I thought someone in the room next door was taking a shower. And then when we were taking our showers, there was a bizarre beeping noise that came from deep within the bowels of the plumbing system. Seriously, I thought it was an alarm or a phone beeping. What was Disappointing? Simply put, breakfast was disappointing. They had had the usual breakfast offerings -cereal, muffins, yogurt, fruit, and a waffle maker. But there were only two hot trays -scrambled eggs and sausage patties. The lack of hot choices when compared to comparable hotel breakfasts was disappointing. Oh, and the tray of bananas was empty for quite a while, and we gave up waiting for it to be replenished. What was Absurd? This hotel is in an open suburban space next to a shopping center and a movie theater. I looked out the window of my room and must have seen 75 available parking spots in the hotel lot. So, all that makes it particularly galling and absurd that the Marriott charges a $12/night parking fee. What's also annoying is that the fee is kind of hidden, and the cost was never directly vocalized when we checked in- just a "we'll take a credit card imprint for incidentals".

So this hotel is in a nice central area, with truly welcoming and nice staff. I was here for work…read moreand a 4 night stay. They are dog friendly which is a plus for those traveling with their furries. My room was very comfortable, clean and sleep quality was good. I never did the breakfast, but big respect for the great morning coffee! I did find that they do not keep the common areas very tidy. Might be a staffing issue, but there was trash in several areas including the stairwells and my last day I could clearly tell nobody had vacuumed the stairwell the entire time I was there. I did have housekeeping the third day of my stay/after my second night but it was not thorough- they just made the bed, left fresh towels, emptied the trash and ran my coffee cups through the dishwasher. Totally fine but No vacuuming ( there was stuff on the floor from my shoes the day before), did not leave any coffee in room and had clearly not wiped the bathroom vanity area down. I am not very messy so it was a non issue. Some of the people that stay here may be a little strange (maybe that is everywhere) as on my third morning, I opened my door and there was a balled up dirty sheet that someone had clearly intentionally left right there! Very bizarre. Between the good and strange I would stay here again, I really liked the staff and my room was very comfortable!

Expedia told us that we would have to wait until they reached the hotel, to confirm if we could get a refund. We were informed no refund bc of Expedias policy. When we contacted the hotel again, to fight this, bc this was mother natures fault, Kaitlyn Young, from Hampton inn said we needed to contact Expedia again bc they were the reason for denial. We contacted Expedia, and spent an hour and half waiting, and Expedia said that Kaitlyn from the hotel was the one who denied a refund. So Kaitlyn was trying to blame Expedia. However, Kaitlyn, was the one who denied. She rushed me off the phone and said call Expedia. We even said we would rebook, at that moment, if they could transfer the money we paid over, so we didn't lose it since this was weather related. Kaitlyn tried to pass the buck off to Expedia and meanwhile Kaitlyn was the one who denied not Expedia! We even said we will pay a penalty, but give us something. Kaitlyn did not care, she just wanted our money, and if we died in the snowstorm she didn't care. All they care about is taking our money for a room that we aren't going to stay in.
