Clarence, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great place to stay while visiting friends and family in the area. I liked that it was an apartment with separate rooms instead of the standard hotel room. We had a large dog and he didn’t bark at all because we didn’t hear any noises. Decent options for breakfast. All the staff we met were friendly and helpful.

Myca, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Everything was good.
Queenie, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

The room was clean but the heater was ungodly noisy, the toilet ran constantly and there was so much light coming in around the "blackout" curtains you could almost read a book with the lights out. When I went to get some coffee Monday morning after light to moderate snow fell all weekend there was ice everywhere. It was very dangerous getting around and it appeared no one had done anything to remove the snow or ice.
Trina, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The room was clean. It as a cooking range, refrigerator, utensils and other amenities. Check-in was easy. Breakfast has a variety of food choices. I would return to the hotel when visiting Newark in the future.
Phuoc, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The room had an unpleasant odor of cigarette smoke, a blood stain on the rug in the bathroom and sink area, and hair from a previous guest on the shower walls. I had anticipated a similar experience to the ES Suites in Parsippany, NJ, as that location has consistently received high ratings.

4/10 Fair

There were a lot of interuptions in my stay. Maintenance came into my room 3 times. Also, you can hear EVERYTHING from people above you. It was a pretty "noisy" stay.
Oven handle was broken (they fixed it)
Toilet seat was also broken, I tried to snap it back in but that didnt work. (Maintenance fixed it)
Christine, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We enjoyed everything it was like staying at home but a great getaway. I only have 2 things I really disliked 1- Having to take dirty towels across the yard and make an exchange in the office and 2-Bag up my trash and sitting it outside the door. But the room was really great cozy and comfortable and having a full kitchen was absolutely the best

Beautiful room design, kitchen with cookware and dishes, comfortable bedding. This hotel would have received 5 stars if they were honest about charging customers $5 parking fee! Outrageous’
