Never been before

Sorry to ask a few more boring questions!

The directions to the mounds - is that from JFK?. I'm coming next week and staying on Long Island at the Allegria Hotel (I work for DHL Air and crew stay here luckily getting a good rate). What would the directions be from here?
The mounds is best for the afternnon arrivals. Where's best to go am dep/arrivals or is it better to head of to EWR or LGA. What's the best days/times @ JFK or is it all the same. Is it worth hiring a car or will i just get completely lost!

I'm from East Midlands Airport in the UK which is the centre of the universe but heading into the Big Apple is slightly daunting
any help appreciated
Cheers

The directions on the website are taken from above Kennedy sort of like you are getting off the Belt Parkway which the long windy parkway that runs along the south of both Queens and Brooklyn. But from the Allegria hotel (assuming you are talking about the one in Long Beach) it is very easy to get to the Mounds.

Take W Broadway to Edwards Blvd and Turn Left onto Edwards Blvd
Take W Beech St (Which will become Park St)
Continue on Park St until it becomes Nassau Expressway and go over the Alantic Beach Bridge (There is a toll of $2)
Turn right at Brookville Blvd
Turn left at 147th Avenue
Turn Left at 230th place
and park you are there! The planes run parallel to 230th place!
