“Very Nice Place to Stay-A few MINOR Issues”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 5, 2013

I was visiting for a weekend and have stayed at other Residence Hotels. Since my fellow TripAdvisor travelers gave this hotel a good rating, I decided to see for myself.

The shuttle from Liberty Airport was timely and the driver friendly. I was a bit surprised that he did not offer assistance with my luggage. A very minor issue, but it starts the experience on a somewhat negative note.

Check-in was quick and easy and the Front Desk Staff very courteous and efficient. Only small problem I had was getting a boarding pass to print, but they were quite helpful and I did get it printed.

The 1 Bedroom Suite was quite roomy. modern, comfortable and very clean. Kitchen was well stocked with everything necessary. Sofabed and regular bed were very comfy. Wireless Internet access was free and not overly slow. Some airplane noise, but not enough to be bothersome. Nice decor and overall a great value for dollar spent. Pool area and Gym were nice and well kept, as were all public areas.

The free breakfast was much better than most places I have stayed. It is nice to see Scrambled Eggs, Sausage. Pancakes and Red Potatoes to go along with the "standard" waffles, yogurt and cereal. Food was hot and quite tasty. The dining area is a bit small but warm and inviting.

Check out was fast and efficient. The shuttle driver on return took my luggage for me and was very polite. Shuttle runs every 30 mins, so getting back to the airport was very easy..

I do have a small issue with charging $11 per day for guest parking. My companion drove, so I did have to pay the fee. It is a secure gated lot, but this nickel and dime stuff should be included in the rate.

Overall, a friendly, clean and nice option near the airport. I will stay here again on future trips.

“Handicaped not Welcome”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed January 11, 2013

I stayed at this hotel for 2 months and had to keep telling the front desk staff that there were vehicles parked in the handicap parking spots that did not have handicap plates or placards for these spots. Most of the time my complaints were met with indifference and excuses. Great place to stay if you are healthy and do not care about the rights of handicaped people.

“Great overall, EXCEPT for breakfast”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 31, 2012 via mobile

Rooms are modern, spacious and clean. Sofabed is comfy. Staff at front desk is professional and courteous. Location is excellent. Unfortunately breakfast is limited and the dining area is tiny. No restaurant or dinner service, except for some complimentary grub on M-T-W from 6:00-7:30pm. there is also no way to purchase alcohol here; one must cross over to the hotel in front for that. All in all though, it's worth it especially if traveling with family.

“Would stay here again”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 8, 2012

Stayed here in the immediate aftermath of Hurricane Sandy.

The most notable observation is the professionalism and friendliness of the staff - from the manager to the breakfast buffet staff to the front desk staff.

Rooms are spacious and clean and mostly quiet.

Hotel shuttle is convenient and takes you to Newark Airport and adjacent (within walking distance really) to Jersey Gardens outlet mall.

Only negative: not in the best of areas in terms of what I perceived as low-income housing and commercial areas. Would not have felt safe driving or walking outside of the immediate area of the hotel or adjacent mall.

Location, though, trumps security given proximity to NYC (a short train to Penn Station by way of hotel shuttle to airport and then to NJ transit) and NJ areas.

An overall positive experience and would definitely stay here again.

“Swanky & Comfortable”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 18, 2012 via mobile

Got a last minute room here, as a place to rest for a flight.
The rooms are beautiful, spacious, and well thought out. Best decor I have ever seen!
I was the one in the room sleeping on the pull out sofa, and it was cozy.
Wonderful establishment.
