Liked: +close to EWR airport, shuttle runs 24h every 15/30 min +gym area and pool: we did not use it+restaurant: decent prices for simple dining. +breakfast: it was fine, different varieties of food is served +great Portuguese restaurants nearby: 15 min walking +late check-out: free late check out is available until 1pm, afterwards you pay 59 usd+tax
Disliked: Cons-dirty: everywhere! Dark hair and dust. Just unacceptable and disgusting -location: not the best place to discover NYC, no comfortable public transport available -soundproofing: you can hear the highway and nearby bars, over the weekend it was too loud because of the night club/bar nearby (until 2 am)

Liked: I had a long layover so I had to book a hotel near the airport as I was catching an early flight. I was looking for a hotel with free shuttle which was there when I arrived at the airport. A plus for me since I didn't have to wait. Guess I was just lucky with the timing. In the morning, there was a pot of coffee already brewing at the reception area so that was nice while I waited for the shuttle which was to arrive at 6:30 AM. Check-out was also a breeze since I had already paid so I just had to hand in the room cards.
Disliked: The person who serviced me, Haynde (spelling?), didn't seem all that friendly but some of the morning staff were, so it wasn't everyone. The room was decent and looked clean. The bathroom wasn't exactly dirty but you could still see some of the dirt trapped within the crevices of the tub.
