I've always been very happy with Dial 7.

This is a service mainly that goes from/to the 3 major NYC airports and/or between JFK and LGA .

The webpage also says they do midtown hotels but it gets confusing after that, try it for yourself.

I've used them from Midtown to Newark Airport, older abused buses and half size buses. Very strange fare collection system. I would not recomend them.

Stick with black car Dial 7/Carmel or Ride Apps like Uber or Lyft. YMMV

NYC Airporter buses that I've seen often on nearby highways/parkways, living near LGA, are typically like customized mid-size buses on heavy duty Mack-truck chasis ... and ADA compliant for NYC codes, as I recall. Arriving in the middle of a winter, mid-week morning rush hour ... OP will be joining commuters heading to work in Manhattan, expect the usual rush hour traffic congestion ... yellow taxi will be on a metered fare + tolls, probably about $40 to $45, could be higher if idling or gridlocked to a near standstill, and, add tipping for the driver. Taxi is good for 3 pax + 3 large pc. of luggage, maybe more if you can get a taxi-van, no extra charge or fees, etc. - curbside in front of airline terminal to hotel's un/loading zone.

Carmel, Dial 7 and all other FHV (For Hired Vehicle) require a free & quick shuttle bus ride (Green Route) from terminal's curbside to the nearby designated parking lot to meet the car/driver for the trip to hotel/destination.

NYC Airporter offers free dropoff to midtown hotels via multiple shuttle routes, once you are in Manhattan, either near/by Grand Central Terminal on East Side/Bryant Park-Park Ave. South; or, Port Authority Bus Terminal on west side of town. You will need to transfer from the larger bus into these shuttles, mostly full-sized vans i.e. Ford - for that last 1/2 or 1 or 2 mile, as listed on their route schedules. The wait can be anywhere from none to short, or long if the shuttle just left.

Early January in NYC and be bitterly cold, occassionally (unlikely, but) with possible near-blizzard, stormy conditions and strong north wind blowing ... not fun to be standing or waiting 15 or 30 minutes for free hotel shuttle transfer. For a solo traveler, it's a money saver ... but with 2 or more, I would spend a little more and take Carmel or Dial 7; and, if mobility is an issue - getting to the remote parking lot with the airport shuttle, can be a pain - get into the taxi queue line and go direct, curbside to curbside.

Waze and/or other real-time traffic/navigation App will show the best route & likely ETA from airport to hotel ... 45 minutes or less in travel time would be good to excellent, as we used to commute daily.
