Great stay but don’t drink the coffee at breakfast
The only thing that I would offer as a suggestion is to dispose of the Nescafé coffee etc machine and buy carafes for coffee. The coffee was horrible! The coffee in the little packets in the rooms was much better.

Rutgers Revisited
I chose this location because I was visiting my mom, who lives close to the property. I also spent time with friends during my stay.
There is a restaurant next to the hotel, which I visited frequently for meals.

Very clean and well maintained property. Room was well cleaned, quiet, nice large tv with Netflix and local cable, clean bathroom. the beds and pillows were very comfortable. Didn’t try the breakfast but this is definitely a good place to stay for a couple of days while in town.
