The room had trash left in the trashcan, which left us to wonder how thoroughly it was cleaned or if it was even cleaned at all. I wiped some surfaces and toilet seat down with a lysol wipe just incase.
The wall had a hole in it. I am assuming from the door possibly slamming into it.
The bed wasn't super comfortable.
I did like that the bedroom and living area were separated from each other. You can stay up and watch TV and not disturb someone who wants to sleep in or go to bed early.
Both the living room and bedroom had its own TV. It also had two separate air conditioning units.
The handle on the toilet needed to be held down for it to completely flush.It's not a big deal, just something I noticed. The carpets are old, but I walked around in slippers or flip-flops.
There is an Olive Garden around the corner. The gas stations are around the corner but on the other side of the highway.
I'm happy that it came with free Breakfast. It was basic stuff, but perfect for our overnight stay - Bagels, toast, yogurt, oatmeal, eggs, sausage, and potatoes. They had small waffles and two types of cereal (cheerios and special K). Apples and oranges. Your choice of coffee, tea, milk, water, orange, apple, or cranberry juice. I had breakfast at 7:30AM. It was pretty much empty. When I went back down around 830 and again at 915 (kids wake up different times), it was crowded and louder in the area. I preferred the opening time. The kids brought the food back to the room to eat.
Overall, it wasn't bad for a one night stay. It definitely can use updating and patch work. If I was staying longer than a night or two, I may look elsewhere.

This hotel is in urgent need of renovation, very dated. We found out that they don’t clean the rooms or change towels unless you ask…. We had to insist that our room will be cleaned and towels will be changed. They provide one soap bar that needs to be shared between the sink and the shower. The staff is helpful and trying to do their best but it seems this is the instructions they have from management. Breakfast is served however, the eggs r cold, the roster doesn’t work properly and so much more. This entire hotel needs a serious revamp!!! Location is great, there is a bus to Manhattan that is very frequent and it’s a 15 minutes drive.

I was accused of smoking in the room because of trash we left in the trash can nothing of other evidence,no smoke no smell nothing I was very disappointed in this because not only are they playing with people accounts you’re just down right bogus

I found the hotel to be comfortable. You can adjust the temperature to your liking. The room was not fancy, but it was clean. It's a good value for the cost (if you're on a budget). They had breakfast 7-10am with plenty of options (protein and carbs and a few fruits). Coffee is available in the lobby 24/7, which is a plus. I do recommend bringing your laptop (I did) because it seemed the one computer in the lobby wasn't working. The location is central with access to shopping nearby (Walmart, samsclub,tjmaxx, Burlington, etc) within walking distance. I saw a bus so I think the bus goes there if you're traveling by bus from another state. The parking is to the right (enclosed) and is free, which is a plus in NJ. Two tvs in the room, which is great if you're traveling with family. Room service didn't come, tho...not sure if you have to request that. Staff is scant, so sometimes you have to wait a little, but they are very helpful, pleasant, and friendly. Option to buy snacks at night. Laundry on 2nd flo. I didn't venture outside to check out the pool

Everything is a witness to years of service. Even though there are two lifts only one appeared to be in operation, that made a lot of waiting especially at checkout time when you couldn't fit into the elevator because of suitcases and people.
The hotel is about fifty metres from two major expressways that make the rooms on the eastern side noisy. Also the A/C units are quite loud so sleeping can be a challenge with the truck, motorbike, loud exhausts and the air conditioner going. You need the air condioner because the rooms get hot.
Another weird thing is that there are a row of spotlights installed to the lawn outside. These are directed at the side of the building and without the curtains fully drawn, light up the room at night. It's very odd to do that to your guests. I clamped the curtains together with coathangers with pant clamps.
There is a complimentory breakfast that is quite good. There are also washers and dryers available on the second floor.
The truly great thing about this hotel is there is a 320 NJ Transit bus stop directly outside the hotel with a bus that in 20mins has you in New York City. That is a huge plus.
If you can afford something better do so because there are lots of hotels in the vicinity.
The staff at this hotel keep its head above water but without some substantial maintence the hotel is slowly going under.

This hotel needs lots of updates. I stayed in room 212 on 11/12/22 and it was a very dark room compared to my friends’ rooms that stayed in rooms 207 and 210. I asked Barbara at the front desk about additional lighting and was told that my room doesn’t get a second light as my friends rooms in the 2 rooms I mentioned already. She said it’s because those 2 rooms were bigger than mine. How do you tell a customer that they can’t have more light in their room because of the size of the room? The bathroom vent was completely filthy with brown spots and cracks in the bathroom ceiling. And the chair at the desk had worn down fabric. And the thing on the door that supposed to keep someone like housekeeping from coming into the room was missing.
There was only one elevator working and took forever to get to the floors or to the first floor. There wasn’t a sign on the elevator that said that the other one was out of order. This double Queen room was not worth the almost $200 a night with its lack of upkeep.

Con: Heat is on forever I guess it is not working properly but we were ok with it Room itself is large but shabby The sink is clot The shower: Had to keep water running for a few minutes to get hot water
Overall worth the price and value is great. For location and things included I would definitely stay here again. Rooms could use a make over

We checked in on August 7 2024. From the entrance itself theres worn out concrete and peeling paint. A month later they still have worn out July 4 decorations up in the lobby- this general lack of maintenance should have tipped us off.
The front desk attendant “joe” just said “yeh we tell people not to smoke but we cant stop them” and said “yeh we dont have any smoke free rooms but i’ll make a note of it for tomorrow”- it is supposed to be an entirely smoke free hotel.
The “suite” rooms have a queen bed and a terrible pull out sofabed that has plastic sheeting on it and springs sticking out.
I’d give this place negative stars if i could. In fact I feel sorry for the guy Joe who has to work here and answer to customers because of the terrible management of this place.
We will be sleeping with the lights on - with the general lack of upkeep scared a roach might crawl onto my kids .
Can’t wait to get the hell out of this awfully managed property in the morning.

The room was ok for first look. We booked it based on the booking.com reviews that are better than the ones here, saw these too late. But I was prepared for everything after reading the reviews here (on the way to the hotel). The bed was good and sheets are clean. We did not mention in the booking that we need a crib (I thought we would get it as they saw the age of my son) but when I asked for it, they brought it in a few minutes. The bathroom was quite clean, we got clean towels every day. The breakfast was ok, the eggs and sausages were well done and there was fresh waffles. The breakfast room was quite dirty and dark, so we did not spend too much time there just ate quickly. Coffee is usual filter coffee, juice was drinkable. The parking situation is not as bad as described, they have extra parking in the building next to the hotel, it was never full. We forgot to take toothpaste and the receptionist could give that too.
However, she wasn’t happy when I asked for extra towels one hour (!) before pool closing as “it will close soon, so she can’t give it”. But if you ask again, you can get it… The room is big, there is a first room with the couch when you go in, then bathroom from the hallway and then the bedroom. The wc in the bedroom refilled the tank in every 10 minutes. It would be really irritating at night if you want to sleep, but this was not our biggest problem.. Under the king rooms (probably not all are affected) there is something ( a generator?) which is so loud and the windows have no soundproofing that it is not possible to sleep even on the terrible couch in the other room (so it’s not worth to try, it’s still too loud but the couch is a disaster too). It turned off after 4:30am. The curtains are ok but don’t make dark, so when it’s not too loud then it’s not dark anymore (in summer at least) We complained in the morning and tried to switch rooms (the older kids in the other room heard it too but could sleep so it is probably only bad in some rooms. And as I have a toddler, I am tired enough to sleep easily- so this was bad, really 😃). This time the receptionist wasn’t too helpful, as the hotel was full she couldn’t help she said, she did not care much about the problem. We got ear plugs for the second night that made it somewhat easier to deal with the noise. It’s a must if you really have to stay here in a king room (the other rooms are on the other side of the hotel she said)
