Great value for Easter weekend

Excellent, 5 minute walk to PATH train which takes you to Manhattan. Breakfast is even more than the usuall continental. We booked a room for 4, 2 adults and two kids and we got room with two bedrooms and also were able to checkin at around midday. Staff were very helpful and friendly.

pretty good

The location was sort of weird because its on a side street, and there's also no parking lot but the street parking wasn't so bad. Close to the path trains made it a bonus . Initially walking in I though the rooms we're going to look like some cheap motel room but was surprised to find the rooms to be really big and nice. The staff was nice and overall it was great stay.

Good hotel in good location

The hotel and the rooms are clean and have good beds and service. The room price includes transportation to Newark Airport both ways and a good buffet breakfast. The hotel is an 8 minute walk from the Path Train station, which makes for an easy and quick trip to Manhattan. The staff is friendly and helpful.

Cheap hotel but neighborhood seems a bit dangerous

Cheap hotel but neighborhood seems a bit dangerous. If you want a cheap hotel and do not care much about the quality, this is the right one.

Great hotel and deal! We loved it!

We were spending 3 days in NYC and debating whether to pay for a NYC hotel or pay less on the outskirts. Pros and cons either way but we decided to save some money and stay in Jersey City. We loved this Ramada and it was about 1/3 to 1/2 the price of a similar room in NYC with probably more room. We got a king size bed plus another separate room with a double. We were within a 5 minute walk of the PATH station at Journal Square that took us to 33rd St. or World Trade Center. This was about a 20 minute train ride each way. A lot of what makes a hotel memorable is the service and this Ramada had great service! Front desk folks were very welcoming and helpful. My 10 year old wanted to check out comic book stores in NYC and one of the desk clerks took time to find and print out a list of his favorites and their addresses. The neighborhood is older and very ethnic. We liked it. We always felt safe and enjoyed the atmosphere. Good and reasonable food 2 blocks away at the VIP Diner. While it took time to ride the train in and out of the city everyday, it was definitely worth it to us and the money we saved. We went to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island and boarded from the New Jersey side, which was about 3 miles from us. Highly recommend this as our ferries were not even half full and all of the ones from the Manhattan side were packed. (We went on July 5th.) We were also a short train ride from Hoboken and Carlo's Bakery from Cake Boss. Get there at opening time if you want to buy something. We were there about 1.5 hours and we got there at 7:40am on a Thursday. Overall a great 3 day stay and we saw all that we wanted to so riding the trains didn't reduce our schedule. We highly recommend this hotel. Plenty of space, clean and great service and location for our needs.

Money-saving tip: Not Applicable

Depending on the size of your family and the number of trips you will make into NYC, definitely get a SmartLink PATH card for the train. There were 6 of us in our family so this was definitely worth it. $5 to purchase a card but then each trip costs $1.30 vs. the normal $1.75. You can also use the same card for everyone. You will need a separate Metro card for travel within NYC or you can just walk. It's only 9 blocks once you get off at the 33rd Street stop at the end of the PATH line to 42nd Street and Times Square. A separate PATH train will take you to the World Trade Center and you can walk from there to Wall Street, the Brooklyn Bridge, Chinatown, etc. The walking can add up quickly but so can the costs for subway rides as they are $2.25 per person per ride with a Metrocard. If you're there for several days then an unlimited ride card might pay off for you but we just didn't need to ride the subway that much to make it pay off. There are bus options as well but we didn't use those.

Ramada Jersey City

I was attending a conference and pretty much everybody at the conference was staying at this hotel. Yet the hotel provided no courtesy transportation to the conference which was at the University a few miles from the hotel. The room was okay, though for the price it should have been much better. The employees were very courteous and prompt though a few of them could have helped me with my travel troubles being I was staying with them.

This is the place to dine out. Lots of Indian, Asian and Latin restaurants from cheap to expensive. And the waiters and waitresses were just awesome!
