The neighborhood is quiet, making it ideal for a restful night after loud music. Plus, the late 12:00 PM check-out lets you sleep in after a late-night encore.

Food and Drink Options

While there's no on-site restaurant, the hotel offers a buffet or continental breakfast — perfect after a late night. Nearby eateries are easily accessible by car or bike. Although there's no 24/7 room service, the convenient location means plenty of food options are within reach even after a show.

What People Say

Guests love the cleanliness, friendly staff, and quiet atmosphere. Many mention the hotel’s value for money and the ease of getting to concerts in Newark. Travelers also appreciate the late check-out and the comfort of the rooms after a long night.

Areas for Improvement

This isn’t a party hotel — it’s more of a restful base than a nightlife hub. If you’re looking for an on-site bar or walkable late-night food scene, you might need to venture out. Some guests note that the area feels suburban, which is great for peace but not ideal for spontaneous bar hopping.
