You'll want to keep weather and tourist crowds in mind when you're booking a trip to New York. Weather in the city can be demanding, with cold (and sometimes snowy) winters and hot, humid summers.
The spring (April to June) and autumn (September to the beginning of November) months promise more mild, pleasant weather. Better yet, the tourist crowds are not as overwhelming as they can be during peak times. If you're looking to save money, consider booking in January or February to lock in lower prices.
If you know where to stay, you can save even more on a trip to Corona by taking advantage of discounts.

A complimentary roundtrip airport shuttle is available 24 hours a day. You'll also stay within a short drive of St. John's University and Citi Field.
Satellite programming and complimentary wireless internet keep you busy in your room, and recreational amenities like a fitness center make sure you have plenty to do when you're not out exploring. And before you head out for the day, make sure you take advantage of the complimentary buffet breakfast. You can also make coffee or tea in your room when you need a boost.
Best Western Plus LaGuardia Airport Hotel Queens also offers guests discounts if they're seniors, AAA members, or members of the government/military. Refrigerators and microwaves in the rooms help you save even more when you keep some snacks and drinks with you. You'll also have complimentary internet access and LED TVs with satellite programming in your room.
Grab breakfast at the complimentary buffet, then get in a workout at the fitness center before driving to Citi Field or St. John's University. You can also use the complimentary roundtrip airport shuttle at scheduled times to take the stress out of your arrival and departure.

Corona is a nice, affordable community located in north-central Queens. It's diverse and not too far from New York City.
