The rooms are out dated - the bathtub paint was peeling and there were small bugs buzzing around - we came in late so had to stay a night but booked another hotel after seeing the conditions here. the Bed was a glorified futon and gave me severe back pain. would not recommend staying here would give negative stars if i could.
5 minutes into being in our room we were about to return the key and sleep in our car in a parking lot. This area was horrible! I’m honestly not sure what I was expecting but $120, a night a lot more than what I got. All of the appliances were broken such as drawers. the room was filthy had bed bugs weird sticky substances on the wall the bed was like sleeping on a cardboard mat. Not to mention this is probably the worst area in Jersey! Another person renting a room was staring at us while we unpacked our car. Unless you’re stranded or have no where else to go I would never recommend this place sleeping at a rest stop in your car is better then sleeping at this hotel.
I consider this a budget motel. Entered and it had a smell of overused powder odor eliminator for carpets. But there's no carpets. The floor was sticky. We just made sure we wore our shoes. The linens and towels had stains and need to be replaced. The pictures posted of interior and exterior are pretty accurate. Yes, it shows it's somewhat modern, but it's cheaply done- decent enough for a budget motel. The AC unit worked great. The shower water pressure was great! The person working the desk was nice.
Location is about 15-20mins from NJ transit - Elizabeth/Broad Station. There's a grocery store in short distance. Bus stop nearby, but it didn't show up twice as stated on schedule. Lyft is avaliable. We used that to get to mall and back, as well as getting to the airport. The airport is close and took about 10 mins drive. The motel was quiet. Didn't hear traffic and neighbors were quiet. I felt safe in the area as i walked to/from Elizabeth station. The area near the stain station had dining, but we didn't eat there. Police station also located there.
I wouldn't stay here again. It was my first time in NJ. It wasnt the worst budget place in stayed at for a last minute trip. Is definitely pay more and stay somewhere else.
