“Surprisingly nice for the money!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed October 27, 2012

We stayed here overnight with a party of 20 for a company outing. In addition to sleeping over, we used the indoor pool in the afternoon after check-in, and the free breakfast buffet in the morning.

The pool area was a bit cramped for more than a handful of people, but nice to have all the same. Same with breakfast room--quite cramped and not really able to accommodate the rush of guests coming in for the free breakfast. But the breakfast itself was quite decent.

Rooms are fairly new, so furnishings and decor are modern, sleek, and clean. Rooms are also big so King room fine for 2 people; and 2 double OK for couple with 2 small kids.

Location is right off Route 66 in Neptune, so it was a short driving distance to Asbury Park which is where we spent most of our time. Very convenient and far more affordable than Asbury hotels.

Only complaint is that the girl at the front desk managed to screw up our billing, despite me spending a solid half hour with her as we checked out party in. Entire bill was supposed to go on my corporate card, yet somehow 2 of the individuals in our party didn't end up no my master bill and they were charged individually. I didn't find out until a week later, however, when I called a week later to get it fixed, they promptly fixed it, so no harm done.

“Great hotel!!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 23, 2012

We did room blocks for a wedding we had in town. Service was great. Sales reps were very responsive. The hotel is brand new. The shower in our King room was impressive. Breakfast is standard and complimentary. Best hotel to stay at in the area especially when having an event in town.

Only problem was that one of our guests had their tire stolen off their car in the parking lot. They need more lighting and perhaps some out door cameras as that area can get a little sketchy and has a lot of traffic volume.

“Doesn't live up to potential”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed October 14, 2012

This is a very clean, new property with friendly staff, but the hotel has some poor design qualities and location flaws. The room and bathroom were spotless..probably one of the cleanest hotels I have stayed at, but the bed was uncomfortably firm and the pillows were cheap and uncomfortable. There were different choices of "soft" and "firm" pillows on the bed yet neither were comfortable. Two things I didn't like in the bathroom...1) the bathroom door automatically shut, so if you wanted it kept open you had to prop it open with a suitcase or something and 2) the bathroom light and fan were the same switch so you couldn't have just one or the other. Breakfast in the morning was good with a large selection...typical for a holiday inn express. I forgot my hairbrush, nail file/emery board, and Q-tips so I asked the front desk if they had any of those items- all they had was a small plastic comb (though it worked well enough), but no on the other two items. This hotel does not allow pets, though I think it would be a great if they did as there is a large grassy field behind the hotel. As for location, the hotel is off of a busy road and even though it's only one lane in each direction the high traffic volume makes it difficult to turn left-in and left-out of the property. The new Wawa next door prohibits left-turns out (something to be said about the traffic on this road). The Wawa also makes it difficult to turn bc every time there is a gap in traffic people are usually turning out of Wawa.The hotels check-out time is noon which was nice. There was also a pool, small arcade, fitness center, laundry facilities, and business center...none of which I used, but nice that they were offered. Overall, decent, clean hotel with some annoying qualities.

“Good value”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed October 12, 2012

This was a 3 star property, and frankly, not on par in terms of amenities with Hilton Garden Inn and other properties typically rated as 3 star properties in Trip Advisor. This hotel was perfectly adequate for our brief weekend stay: clean, satisfactory breakfast, and pleasant furnishings in the room. However, our room was not serviced until about 5 pm on the second day of our stay due to the hotel being "slammed" with a slew of check-ins of wedding guests. Elevator is dreadfully slow, and internet connection is also slow. Just about what I expect from a Holiday Inn Express, but, in my opinion, not worthy of the 5-star ratings all over Trip Advisor.

“Business traveler”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed October 7, 2012

newer location on a busy street, not a good location in the strict sense of the word.nothing close but everything driveable . nothing wrong with the place but nothing right so a average stay. Not Bad. Place was busy with wedding guests so service suffered a bit (had a internet problem) , The free breakfast was okay and had hot entries . Place was clean ,front desk personal were polite.
Had a billing issue at checkout ,seems to be settled but that still took a few days and a call back.
large wedding party caused room service to suffer.
I would stay here again.

Room Tip: Elevator is very slow pick a low room
