I am bumping this thread because no one responded the first time and I know people are staying here.

We, my brother and I are staying at the Best Western from Friday to Sunday I will probably arrive there Friday by noon to begin the festivities.

It's the Best Western in Massapequa.(I think it's called B.W. Bar Harbor)

I just booked a room at the Best Western in Massapequa for next Friday and Saturday.

I had a reservation for the Best Western in Jamica NY thinking that was closer but now we are at Best Western in Massapequa with everyone else.

The BW in Jamaica would be a good place to stay if you were going to a 50 Cent concert.

So it's a bad area

I had no idea when I booked it, i just read it was within 15 miles of Jones Beach. Now I am glad I changed reservations to Massapequa.

I think that's the Best Western near JFK airport. I always tell people not to stay at any of the hotels near the airport, it's not the best part of town.

Try Travel lodge in Hicksville, its about the same distance as bw, but it right on wantagh pkwy, so you just head south and your at the theater.

Depends on the weather. It's the Saturday of Labor Day weekend, if it's a good beach day there could be 150,000 or more people there.
