Confortable mais sans véhicule, c'est pas très agréable.
Pros:

- Chambre spacieuse et confortable (un peu veille mais c'est pas grave)
- Lit spacieux et hyper confortable
- calme marlgé qu'on soit proche de l'airport
- petit magasin et restaurant à l'interieur
- les personnes du service d'entretiens respecteuses et serviables

Cons:

- l'emplacement!!! hyper loin de tout, si on n'a pas de véhicule, sincèrement ça n'en vaut pas la peine, les frais de taxis ne sont pas negligeable.
- Pas de navette.
- Une des personne à l'acceuil desagréable, pas de bonjour, pas d'au revoir.
- j'ai trouvé un cafard dans ma chambre le premier soir. le reste du temps il n'y en a plus eu
- le frigo fesait du bruit

Práctico y conveniente para pasar la noche cerca del aeropuerto.
Pros:

La ubicación es excelente por su cercanía al aeropuerto de Newark, ideal para escalas o vuelos tempranos.

Cons:

Un poco de ruido exterior por el tráfico cercano, pero nada grave que impidiera descansar.
