Just book it

Love this hotel! Very clean and with excellent staff from the front desk to the cleaners. They serve breakfast in the morning which consists of sausage, eggs, waffles. As well as cold items like muffins and cereal. Theres just 2 negatives I would give. I was in need of a laundry room and theres was out of order/none available. The other being the location of the hotel. Its on a very busy 1 way street. God help you if you miss the turn into the parking lot. You will easily spend another 20 min if not longer trying to turn around then to go back the way you just came. Yet its still 5 stars from me!

Great service, terrible smell.

Wonderful staff! Everyone was so nice and helpful. However, the room reeked of something awful. A cross between cigarette smoke and industrial cleaner. Gave me a headache in an hour. Asked around and this occurred in more than our room. Hopefully, they rectify this

Easy Access To All NYC / NJ Routes

Pleasant front desk staff. Nice breakfast in the morning. Waffle stations and hot foods along with juices, coffee and cereals. The pillows were all very soft and we would have liked firmer options. Easy access to Turnpike, Rt 18 and Rt 1. Less than 1 mile from bus transit to NYC. Highly recommend.
