Had a great stay!!
Pros:

Stayed at the hotel July 24-27.

Pros
Nice and clean rooms
Friendly and helpful staff
Comfortable Beds
Safe and quiet neighborhood
Breakfast (Satisfactory, but really not complaints)

Cons
The bathroom toilets need to be replaced. They are so low that I literally had to brace myself when trying to sit down. I don't have a lot of mobility issues so I don't get accessible rooms, but these seriously need to be replaced with newer ones with bigger bowls (my hand kept touching the toilet water every time I wiped) and taller height.

Would I stay here again? Definitely!!!

Run away from this place
Pros:

I’ll keep this short!
This place is a dump.
Took a look at it and changed hotels straight away. I ended up changing hotels and stayed ar the crown plaza which was amazing while the rest of the group stayed here and had to deal with rude employees and sub standard accommodations.

A dump with no AC. Book elsewhere

Would not return
Pros:

Bed was comfortable, Breakfast and coffee was good

Cons:

The bathroom with black mold and a filthy rag around the sink pipes. The shower head falling off the wall, the shower curtain rod was falling off the wall. Air conditioning barely worked. No phone in the room to call the desk, to let them know about the loud people at 230 in the morning whose kids were banging on door and screaming. Dark as night so kept falling into things on the way to the bathroom, no light at all in there to illuminate the way.
Location was okay but parking was horrible.

Comfy Bed
Pros:

Stayed here for a night on my drive from Florida to NJ. Booked through the app in afternoon of the night I was gonna stay. Got room with 2 queen beds for $100. Better price than Orbitz or Hotel Tonight. Hotel is very convenient right off I-95. There are a few food options nearby. Staff were friendly and helpful. The room was good. Clean. Felt like they made some updates awhile back. Room had a mini fridge, microwave and coffee machine. The bed was very comfy. Great shower pressure. They have guest laundry room. When I got to my room it was around 930p and I could hear a few of my neighbors. But luckily that didn’t extend into the night. Breakfast was included but I was up and back on the road by 430am so wasn’t able to partake. If you need a place to sleep for the night on your journey this will satisfy.

Pros:

The location and the sense of safety. A lot of contractors seemed to be staying there, so it was clear people were there on business. I even saw an Army service member.

Cons:

The room had a damp smell when I walked in, and the sheets felt wet. It improved after I switched the air conditioner to dry mode and let it run for a while.

Given the humidity levels, I feel the staff should have had the air conditioners running on dry mode so the room wouldn’t feel damp when guests arrived.

A big disappointment
Pros:

The location, the fair price and the staff.

Cons:

When I received the room my first question was if I have a safe in the room and the answer was yes you have a safe in the room.I was so disappointed to find out that the safe didn’t work and matter of fact all the safes in this location were out of order.and I needed again to carry all my valuables with me.
