airports really don't matter in the grand scheme of things. It's the getting to your location/place of stay that is most important. I always find Newark to be the simplest (takes longer)

JFK and LGA.. I uber and I'm good.

Never been to that hotel but it's a dope area to stay in. The whole Chinatown/LES area has a fun night life. If you land at LGA, you can get something to eat at Laguardia Cafe. It's a few blocks away. Really good Dominican food. It's next door to the house where Malcolm X lived when they tried to burn it down

I care for the airport shops/souvenirs/book selections, food and drink options, cleanliness, architecture, TSA procedures.

I be at the airport early.

I’ve looked up a couple of hotels in that area and what’s up with it being a thing to share the bathroom? I’ve seen that being mentioned in the reviews, is that a common thing in ny?

No. Steer clear of anything with a shared bathroom, it’s likely a hostel.

Above the fray.
There must have been major upgrades for anybody to speak highly of it. It was always the worst airport in the area. Not worth it, even for lower airfare.

shyt used to be so bad, we joked that Mobb Deep/CNN song wasn't about Los Angeles, it was about LA-guardia

Nobody cares about this soul/passion/grit shyt :flabbynsick:

NYC is a significantly safer and better place to live and visit

We good on porno movie theaters and stick up kids in Times Square

NYC is different but its still NYC telling people to not visit like this still ain't the best god damn city in the country and probably all of the Hemisphere

the OP is an old head like myself

The fact that he said he never been to NYC I was just giving him a heads up that this city is not the same city that he heard about ; saw on tv ; read about in the 80s and 90s at its peak of flavor , passion , soul , dopeness etc. etc.
