“Good for us, evacuated because of Sandy”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed November 23, 2012

My pregnant daughter, her husband and I stayed for 8 days, waiting for my daughter´s house and neighborhood in Hoboken to recover from Sandy's disaster. It's clean, and served our purpose of having heating, hot water, and a decent breakfast everyday We rented two rooms comfortable beds with pillow abundance. No bugs, no other people's hair. We felt manager and crew OK.

“Good Basic Rooms”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed August 20, 2012

During our trip this weekend we stayed at this hotel as it was close to where we were traveling. The hotel is old but well kept and clean. The price was reasonable for the season and location. Nothing great but most certainly a decent place to spend the night . As for the reviews below I can attest to the fact that it is not an area for prostitutes and it is not located anywhere near an airport so those reviews are either mistaken identity or just downright false reviews.

“No Room in the INN for People”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed August 7, 2012

Overbooked rooms, desk clerk was unable to confirm or deny any reservation, yet showed a two inch pile of paper, saying "these are all the calls". Explaination, a plane came in, NO [--] your located near an Airport. No room except for Smoking. No Thanks. As I drove through drive way a rat ran across my path, it must of found a room.

Our property is not close to any airport and we have not been sold out of of non smoking rooms within the last 60 days. Our reservation system has been open and we have no record or reason to turn anyone away. Additionally, we have always been under contract with a professional pest control company and we do not have pests of any variety. We suspect a mistake has been made since this does not describe our location.

“Decent hotel with good rates”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed July 10, 2012

I recently stayed here on several occasions. Patrick, Tara, Joanna and Lourdes were all very pleasant and helpful. The rooms are simple but clean and I truly appreciate being able to still get a smoking room.

“Staff was very pleasant”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed April 26, 2012

My husband and I stayed in April 2012 and were very impressed. The price was great, the rooms were very clean, the bed was comfortable and the staff in the front office was very pleasant and helpful to us both. The location was perfect and there was a restaurant right next door. We will definately recommend this establishment to our friends and family and will definately be back if we need to stay in the area.
