I have to repeat I do not recommend staying in Long Island City as it is an extremely seedy area.

Only someone who does not currently live in that area would say that. Given that I actually live near there (and have walked through there many times), I take exception to that.
And since many people who are coming from other places may want to visit the CITY, staying an hour+ away on Long Island isn't the most time-efficient and cost-effective option.
But yes, there are many hotels near LaGuardia Airport that are much cheaper than staying in Manhattan.
