“Not bad, IMPRESSED actually”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 July 2010
2
people found this review helpful

I read all the reviews posted here and I don't see what the negative views were about. Honestly the room I stayed in was pretty clean, the bathroom was clean as well. The sheets were fresh and the AC was off the hook. It was so damn hot this weekend, but the AC took no time to cool the room. I wanted the Jacuzzi room but I wasnt for sure of the rate because it seems as though they went up 10 on the regular room shrugs* The guy at the front helped us out a lot because we didn't know how to work the shower, lol

Overall, I slept great. Only thing I had a problem with really was that there was no good channels on the TV, the porn could go. The parking was to tight, there werent hardly spots left when I came back from the market that night. That's pretty much it.

“Good room at a good price”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 September 2008

We stayed in deluxe room.Room size was adequate. Flat-screen, remote control TV, and clean bathroom.Good air conditioning and ventilaton, with in-room controls, kept the temperature comfortable. Window had heavy drapes to pull closed, keeping out light and noise. We paid $110 per night for a room and stayed for 4 nights, including free parking, internet and free call with in US, which we thought excellent value. Desk clerk was pleasant and helpfulThe motel is magnificent and we have never experienced such incredible service before. It's near to JFK airport & gateway mall.
Overall I would say this is probably the best motel we have ever stayed in on holidayand in NEW YORK city.

“it's a hotel for prostitution”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 August 2007

people found this review helpful

i took a list of hotels in Brooklyn with me on my trip to NYC because a signifigant amount were booked, and i hoped to call and find an opening upon my arrival. the Galaxy was the only one available and promised that, even without a reservation, we could get a room. it was a relief but we quickly realized why they don't take reservations and why there were always free rooms. they book rooms by the hour. since it was a last resort we took a room and hoped for the best. as the night went on the activity in the halls, and loads of free porn on the television, made very clear that there are certain types of patrons that frequent this hotel. we're just glad we didn't have anything stolen from our rooms.

“Can't even reserve a room!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 May 2007
2
people found this review helpful

I tried to call one week before my time in Brooklyn - just to check the availability of two rooms for one night and was not even able to get the info about what rooms might be available. Also was not allowed to reserve a room!

The first thing the person on the phone said was, "The rooms are $100 a night!" So? I know how much rooms cost in the area... I have checked the reviews! How unprofessional.
