Looking for a hostel?
Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Great location close to the airport and equally close to the Jersey Mills outlet. Shuttle service from and to the airport was simple and effective. Rooms were spacious and comfortable.

    The locality is not safe atall. Room is very tiny. Not even close to what appears in the images online for this place. U cannot even stretch out on the bed for its size. U cannot make call to the host only text messages which is replied in an hour or more so no immediate assistance in case u r locked out or anything . Location is good for proximity to newark penn. Thats the only best part i guess to give some value to this place

    Good location from Newark airport - easy to get to with hotel shuttle (from P4) or using the train and a ten minute walk from Newark Penn station. Not the glitter of Manhatten, buite a few low-budget food spots around. Very friendly overall. Historic building.

    After a long flight we appreciated the free airport shuttle to the hotel. Check-in was quick and efficient. The room was large and clean. It was quiet for sleeping. The breakfast area was very nice and the included breakfast was fully adequate to get the day started. Mini fridge, coffee and safe provided in the room although we did not use them.

    Very clean, tidy, safe and homely. I ended up staying longer as thought the value for money for a solo traveller was very good. It was very close to Newark airport also and easy to get into NYC. The owners were very helpful.

    Spacious room, housekeeping was good, lots of storage, big bed, location felt safer than expected, less smoking and shouting than normal for budget hotels. Road noise not bad
