Great location for connections to NYC
Pros:

Great location - close to EWR Airport and good rail links to NYC

Cons:

Airport shuttle was terrible! Over 1hr wait at Newark and on the way back we’ve been told it doesn’t start until 5AM, despite reassurances from the previous day that it starts at 4AM. You’re better off taking bus 62 to and from Newark!

Location great, airport shuttle convenient - cleaning could be better
Pros:

The location is great - very close to the Penn train station - easily walkable. The free airport shuttle definitely helps a lot. The bed was comfortable. The luggage storage also helped a lot.

Cons:

The towels had yellow stains on them which I indicated on the hotel survey but they responded to only my other comments and did not respond about the stains on the towels. Overall I was a bit underwhelmed for the price I paid especially given the towel stains, the dusty bedside tables and dirt on the carpets. I would have expected more for the price at $230 per night but that might just be me.

Super nice staff, very comfy bed. Needs better elevators and reasonable options for guests to park.
Pros:

Location directly across from Newark Penn Station was great for our particular needs, since we were wanting a simple and easy transit to the NYC Penn Station.

Cons:

Parking was tricky and expensive, ended up parking nearly a mile away to avoid a $70+ parking fee. Initial entry to the hotel before I had a key card was very confusing, essentially had to follow someone else in. Elevators didn't always work, had to get help from staff to use the service elevator to get our luggage back downstairs.

A place with good and convenient location, but a bit too old and not so well maintained.
Pros:

The location of the hotel is great.

Cons:

But the room, the overall ambient, and the facilities are old, very old. The hotel probably needs upgrading.
