My stay at this hotel was an absolute nightmare. I ended up here due to a missed flight connection, and the overall experience was disappointing. The room was filthy and reeked of smoke, and the service was shockingly indifferent. To top it off, basic amenities were lacking, and I had to book another hotel at 2 AM to escape this mess. Save your money and stay somewhere else!

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The proximity to Rutgers was a huge plus for my research, and the Wi-Fi was reliable. However, my room had a noticeable smoke odor, which was quite uncomfortable, and the breakfast options were limited. The staff were helpful, but some improvements in service would definitely enhance the stay.

The location was fantastic, just a short 10-minute walk to Rutgers and really safe. Plus, there’s a Whole Foods nearby for convenient dining options.

Breakfast was included, but the choices were meager, and it felt more like a makeshift setup than a proper dining area.

The hotel has decent facilities, and the Wi-Fi was great. However, with ongoing remodeling, some areas seemed less inviting.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location is very close to the airport and provides easy access to Manhattan, which is definitely a plus. The rooms, while clean, had some issues with temperature control and amenities. The service left a lot to be desired, particularly with the handling of customer complaints and room management. Overall, it was an average experience, but I was left feeling disappointed in several areas.
