I have to smile when I read the explanation of what to expect in a" EconoLodge" Hotel in the Choice Hotel Worldwide Hotel Directory. "Affordable and convenient with lots of amenities free of charge" These are the only reasons that this particular EconoLodge is used. We used this facility on our way to and from Newark to a Caribbean resort.... More

Close to EWR but seedy and not worth the sacrifice...there are some sandwich shops nearby, convenience shows...good thing...it's close to the airport and the van runs on time! I'd recommend paying a few dollars more and get a better motel and location!

No coffee for 24 hours or more due to technical breakdowns. No airport pickup service on... More

Where to start? The shady, scary area the hotel is in? The gross, dirty carpeting and bedding? The bathroom that was so filthy we didn't even shower in it? The curtains that don't fit the windows, so that either side has a gap of six inches? Or maybe the continental breakfast that was set up on plastic tables in one... More

A disgrace to Choice Hotels. The worst place to stay. Forget being part of a chain, it should not even be an independent motel. No standards what so ever. I wonder what kind of inspections they get from the Franchise ? It felt like we were staying in a dump hole. We checked in and left the hotel to look... More

Stayed here after getting really late to EWR. The hotel suppose to be smoke free, however, the room reeked from smoke. Thus, they moved us to a new room, but only after they came to ensure it smelt like smoke. The bathroom was dirty and old. The whole hotel was old and in need for major updates. The bed was... More

I know I will get what I paid for, but I didn't expect my experience to be this bad. I made a reservation for the hotel through ChoiceHotels.com but then I cancelled it as I found that they kept on increasing the daily rate.
