My stay was just for a single night on a business trip. The hotel had a great location and had easy access to the turnpike. The person at the desk was helpful was friendly - something you don't always get with night staff at a hotel. The room was clean. The price was right, and the location is great, and I would stay here again.

Property was too close to the NJT which created great difficulty, for me, to overcome the noise of constant truck yraffic. Surprisingly, my wife had little or no problem with its disturbance. Greatly appointed place, though. Staff was very accommodating.

Great location quick to get to the NJ Turnpike and short trip to Mancini’s Pizza. Great room, quiet, and loved having a nightlight in the bathroom. My only suggestion is to have an extra grab bar on the wall in the shower.
