I have to disagree with Terra here!  Yeah, the Sunrise is nothing special from the outside (it used to be a Clarion or something equally budget-y) but it's been recently renovated and the rooms are actually very nice.

Ok, so I'll preface this by saying that I get an airline discount since I am a Flight Attendant.  So I've never paid full price, in fact I don't even know what it is.  And they don't nickle and dime you to death.

This hotel is extremely popular with airline commuters.  There are flight attendants and pilots who stay here on a very regular basis - so much so that they know everyone who works at the hotel.  I've only stayed at the Sunrise 3 times, but I'd definitely go back again.  The hotel staff is very friendly and they treat us well.

As said above, the rooms have been renovated.  They are very nicely decorated (for a budget hotel) - in warm gold tones.  The bathrooms have marble countertops.  There is a mini-fridge, coffee maker, and microwave in every room.  There is also FREE high speed internet in every room, which to me is huge.  The beds are very comfortable - honestly the mattress rivals the heavenly beds at Westins.  

The hotel is directly across from the train station if you need to get around.  There are is shopping nearby (I believe Target, TJ maxx, etc.) and a grocery store all within walking distance.  I've gotten chinese and italian delivered.  They offer a typical budget hotel free breakfast in the mornings.

There is a free shuttle service from JFK every 30 minutes.  I'm not sure about LGA, you'd have to call them and ask.  They will also take you to a  gym (I believe it's a Bally's) at no charge.  

So this hotel has everything that airline commuters want, and we stay in alot of hotels - clean rooms, comfortable beds, food nearby, friendly staff, near the airport, and a reasonable price.
