The lobby was cute by design and the restaurant was nice, but! the hotel smells of marijuana and mold, the wall paper is falling off and the tub faucet dripped all night. That's just the beginning.

I would rate this a 0 if I could. Smelled like cigarette smoke and weed. Dirty lobby, holes in the walls. Bedding was sheet and very old blanket. Broken glass in bathroom, sticky bathroom floor, toenail in the bed, old blood on sheets. Drawers falling out of dresser. We went back to the front desk and asked for our money back and then left. Front desk staff was friendly. That was the only positive.

The hotel is a convenient distance from the airport. But it’s old and hasn’t her. Updated. There’s also something loud next to it. Beds are full of springs. But there is noon check-out.

Booked for 1 night after a show so we didn’t have to drive home so late. The planes flying over rattled the hotel and made it sound like they were landing on the roof. Our bath towel had a wad of someone’s hair still attached. The AC worked well enough, but the bed was springy and uncomfortable. Would not stay here again. Cheap is not better in Newark.
