I don't typically review, but I felt it was necessary this time. I'm from upstate and wanted to just take an overnight or two trip down to the city to see the lights, etc. But in being from the city I know the expense and irritation I consistently feel when I stay at hotels. Plus we were mostly in Manhattan and didn't want to spend an arm and a leg on the stay. I must say, I don't understand that bad reviews, I was nervous about choosing the hotel, but after my stay I'm really glad I did. The room was clean, fresh, checked the mattresses, no bugs, no nothing. Lobby is pretty, and staff is very helpful and friendly. Jordan and Giovanna were very kind during our stay. Giovanna even pointed out to us that right across the street literally like 15 feet away, there's a round trip bus that'll take you from jersey to the city. I thought that was especially helpful, round trip is like 9 bucks a person, and kids under 11 are 5 or 4, it was nice since it ended up being the same 30 you spend in tolls going back in forth, not to mention the insane parking situation in Manhattan were not only is there never a spot, but parking is 15 for two hours or 30/40 for 3?!?! Outrageous. So the second day we die the bus and it was a life saver it drops you right at the port authority near times Square. So overall I enjoyed the stay, the breakfast was mid, but for free, plus we got down there late, can't complain. Bathrooms were also very clean ans fresh, good floors, rooms looked newer and not musty
