First, the hotel is advertised on Expedia as having a "shuttle" to the JFK airport ... I called to make sure, and they told me that Yes, they have a shuttle... I arrived at the hotel, and I asked again the front lady about the shuttle, and she said "Yes" and to call her desk in the morning 5 minutes in advance to get the shuttle ... When I came downstairs, I asked for the shuttle, and the young man said to me that they never had a shuttle... I asked for the manager, and he told me that the manager is asleep ...
So ... $40 more for a 4 mile drive by taking a taxi!
