I checked out before I put my bags down. This place is absolutely dusgusting! Beds smelled like a sweaty man, COCKROACHES, fridge not working, AC not working, and the bed frames had poles/sticks/beams portruding out, which is a major trip and health hazard. The shiwerhead was broken and was wrapped with shipping tape. The rug was BLACK, that's how filthy it was. Room 214. I'm filing a complaint with the BBB and the NJ Health Department. This place should be shut down for health code violations. COCKROACHES!!!
Broken Shower.
HOLES IN BLANKETS. SHEETS SMELLED LIKE A SWEATY MAN.

Five star service. Zero star everything else

All you have to do is take some pride ....It was pretty bad. It was very reasonable on the pocketbook. Traveling for work. Did not expect it to be basically a section 8 housing unit. Just absolutely delapadated. The smell was terrible. Really I would actually sleep there in an emergency if I had a small children and it was very cold out at least I can cover them with a mattress otherwise I will sleep in my van or next to a river with Leaches is biting me And sucking my blood it was just terrible the worst part is is that nobody took any pride even if it's running down even if it's old somebody just give some pride

The rooms are very old, smelly and dirty. The staff at the front desk is rude. The area appears unsafe. The carpet on the floor was dirty and had stains (probably vomit). A dog kept barking the whole night.

I DISLIKED absolutely EVERYTHING about this property. It is simply put foul and disgusting! The general cleanliness and maintenance is abhorrent. Staff is non responsive and dismissive when expressing concerns. The linen had stains on it (actually went out and bought my own). The towels were like well-worn gym towels that were extremely abrasive. There are long-term low-income residence at this facility. There were children playing in the the hall and on its filthy floors late into the night. On my last day I cam back to find seven police cars outside the office and found out some residence was behaving erratic and wielding a gun. There were tenants on 2nd floor hanging laundry on balcony railings. I do not smoke but was forced into a smoking room. Walls have stains, mucus and other foreign substance on it throughout. The bathroom looks horrible (toilet was acceptable however small). Expedia clearly allowed the owners to post images of the property back in its heyday. This place should not have a license to operate!! DO NOT STAY AT THIS MOTEL-Hell. Expedia needs to ban them from listing.

I have stayed at this property a few times now, but this was my last. The room was in poor shape. A desk, but no chair. broken dresser. Lamp missing a shade. No toilet paper roller in bathroom. Cable not working. Plaster patch on the wall that had not been repainted. No microwave, although they advertise all rooms have microwaves. In no way, did my room look like the one in the picture. Cheap, yes,,, but barely worth it.
