I have PMd you a site to look at.
What you have to do is look at Marriott and note your preferred hotels and the prices. Look elsewhere and find a cheaper rate - rates can change everyday. When you find a cheaper rate, go back to Marriott site and book a refundable rate room (EXACTLY the same type), and then tell them which site the cheaper rate is on. There is a BRG form to follow. You need to do it all on the same day.
There are hotels in Long Island City (LIC) that are close to a subway. Have a look at Tripadvisor for LIC hotels. The, you can get more for yr money and travel to Manhattan very quickly.

No, I went to the Marriott site that Google threw up, and punched in the dates.
It gave me 142 hotels - most of which had the Marriott logo - and the cheapest were 20 to 60km out of town. The dearest were in Manhatten. The best value one I found for someone wanting to go to Manhatten was the Fairfield Inn some 6 kms out of town in Long Island, and 1.3 km from the closest subway. The one I have booked is a block away from the subway, and most reviewers thought it was pretty easy for getting into the middle of Manhatten, and to the subways that take you to other places. There were some hotels closer to the subway, but the reviewers complained about train noise.
Please PM me your link. I can cancel my booking if I find something better.
