“This is a nice place”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 June 2007

Does anyone ever write a positive review on trip advisor? This is a nice place, I loved it. Stayed there for weekends 3 times (a month apart) in the winter of 2003-2004. The rooms were always very clean, and all rooms include a microwave and refrigerator. It's a decent value for the area, Continental breakfast was very nice, staff was nice, I honestly can't think of anything even slightly negative to say.

Stayed January 2004

“Unsafe and Dirty!!!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 January 2007

Recently booked a room for a video game tournament that was in the area. This hotel is very unsafe in my opinion. We had to be buzzed into the lobby area which looked like it hadn't been updated since it was built.

The hallways had a funny smell to them and the room did also. While we were deciding to stay or not to stay my brother went to use the bathroom and found that there was dried blood all over the walls and the door!!!!!!!

The glass sliding door to the room was open and would not shut or lock! Very unsafe!

Went down to the front desk and finally got a refund for the room and left this hotel as soon as we could!!!!

We ended up at the Hampton Inn in South Plainfield which was beautiful. Whatever you do....do not stay here!!!

“very dirty/unsafe”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 June 2006

people found this review helpful

Room was very dirty, the only thing that was done was that the beds were made. The floors were not vacumed and the bathroom was discustingly dirty. The toilet was wet(pee) and there was hair all over the seat. The sliding glass door was broken, it would not shut all the way nor would it lock....... that in itself was unacceptable due to the fact that the room was facing route 22 and was very unsafe. I would never consider staying or advise anyone to stay at this hotel ever again. Very un happy with the whole situation.... did not stay..... the only thing they did right was to give me a refund on the room.

DON"T STAY HERE
