My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms had a funny smell but were a nice size for four people. The service was friendly and accommodating, and they reassigned me to another room with no problems. The location was a plus being within walking distance to transport to New York.

The hotel offers spacious and well-equipped rooms that are large, very clean, and tidy. The comfortable queen-size bed, large bathroom, and kitchenette with super clean kitchenware provide a cozy stay. The service is excellent, focusing on making guests feel at home, especially with helpful staff like Ruth. The location is outstanding, near Hudson Harbor with spectacular city views and easy access to transportation. The dining experience could be improved with more options, but overall a great value for money stay.

I couldn't have asked for a better stay! The hotel feels like a mini apartment with everything you need, but the thin walls and non-soundproof floors next to the fitness center were a bit of a drawback. The service was exceptional, especially the extra support we received on a Sunday. The location was spot on for exploring, being close to the river walks and transportation options, although it's a bit in between. The dining offered a good selection of fruits, although there were some check issues. It was an overall great experience, but a bit pricey for what you get.

The hotel is conveniently located on the waterfront of Jersey City, offering a safe and quiet environment with easy access to transportation for exploring New Jersey and New York. The rooms are spacious with a full kitchen, perfect for a one-night stay. The service is top-notch, with cheerful and helpful staff like Ruth.

My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The room felt like a small apartment with a separate bedroom, a mini kitchen, queen size bed, and a full bath with a tub. The location was perfect, with downtown restaurants within walking distance and easy access to ferries to NYC. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making my stay even more enjoyable. However, the dining experience had some challenges, and finding the hotel wasn't the easiest. Overall, a great value for money.

The hotel has very spacious and clean rooms directly off the lobby and offers good value for the price. The service was friendly and helpful, with some room for improvement in professionalism. The location is excellent for accessing New York City but can be noisy due to the nearby light rail. Finding the hotel may not be easy, but it is just a block away from convenient transportation options. The dining experience offers juicy steaks but lacks some variety. Facilities provide amenities like dry cleaning and shops/commercial services.
