I chose this hotel because of its proximity to the airport and included shuttle service.
I waited an hour and a half and the shuttle never came. In the process I was told to just wait for the shuttle after which point I was hung up on. After calling many times I finally got someone on the phone and I was told the driver was called and to wait. I called Expedia to cancel the reservation. After an hour of them trying to reach the hotel by phone, Expedia said they could not reach anyone at the hotel to request that they release the reservation for refund. Expedia informed me that they would have to email the hotel and would contact me to tell me the outcome in 24-72hrs. This consumed hours of my time. I am awaiting a response from the hotel and want a full refund.

We were in town for a concert at Prudential Center- hotel very close and walkable to venue! Room was small but clean and had great AC. Bathroom was large! We had an ice machine just outside our room but it didn’t work the two nights we were there. Overall a great experience and would stay there again if coming for event at Prudential Center.

Just a disclosure I am a hotel connoisseur so I am fully aware of hotel customer service and quality. So this is my first time in Newark and the advertisement of the hotel and what it actually is was far off. For one hotel customer service was horrible, me and my husband got there and there was no one at the front door to greet us or help us with our bags, secondly they advertise valet but it’s not valet , no one meets you to take the car, front desk gives a parking pass that’s 20/nightly and you drive it in the gate and there’s parking literally available and I’m assuming the valet are workers there but they come to the window and tell you to leave the keys in the car to park your vehicle in a parking spot that’s right there and on top of that they do that to basically ask for money. Thirdly the ice machine on every single floor does not work, you have to go downstairs to the front desk so that they can let you have access to get ice through this back door area. The hotel room has no microwave and when we called front desk to ask for a microwave, they had none available on the premises at all to use. It was around 11:30 at night where we called the hotel as we were heading there to ask them a question and no one is available from that time until the next morning so you get no assistance from 1130 at night until the next day. The room vent had dust/mold. Sheets had stains. Shower was moldy. I would never stay here or recommend!

Overall we were a little disappointed by our stay. At a glance the room is beautiful, furniture is nice and the space is generous and well arranged.

Our issues were the room smelled like pot the entire visit and the shower mold was bad enough that my son refused to use it. Hotel snacks store was quite pitiful with only Fritos, water and I think a can of alcohol (maybe beer?).

The rooms are quiet so I slept well and the location was good.

Before I get into the review, let me start out by saying if you are a solo female traveler, skip this hotel. We didn’t see a single other female while we were staying there (either staff or guest) and it was a bit unnerving. Our layover ended up being overnight and since we just needed a place to sleep, this fit the bill, but would not be somewhere I’d travel by myself or a place I would pick if I were visiting Newark.

The room was clean and the bed was comfortable (note it is very soft so if you need a firmer bed, find somewhere else). Check in and out was simple. The best part of the amenities was the transport to the airport. Our driver was very friendly and helpful.

The hotel is older and it looks like it’s been retrofitted. The shower in our room was tiny and the grout was cracked and stained. The lights in every socket are bright white - there is no dimming or soft yellow/white. It’s clinical and jarring. The floor is linoleum with next to no carpeting - even around the bed. I wouldn’t pay more than 120$/night for the quality it offers. While it may not be an upscale hotel or resort, for a 200$+/night price tag, I expect a little more comfort.

I’m not sure if this is typical of the Tryp brand, but if it is, we’ll be avoiding this line in the future.

We stayed at this hotel primarily due to its proximity to Penn Station Newark, which was within walking distance and made it very convenient for travel. In that sense, the location was the biggest advantage and the main reason for choosing this property.

The hotel itself felt like a bit of a diamond in the rough. It was well kept and clean throughout, which was appreciated. The staff and general upkeep gave the impression that they do a good job maintaining the property. However, the rooms were clearly older and carried that dated feel, even though they were still clean and functional.

The surrounding area is where the experience loses some points. In the evening, the area felt sketchy and not particularly comfortable for walking around. There also aren’t many dining options or convenient stores nearby, which limits flexibility if you need something outside of the hotel.

There is a restaurant directly next door that we relied on for coffee and snacks during the day, which was very convenient. However, once it closed in the evening, dining options became limited, and we were essentially left with the more expensive restaurant inside the hotel.

I like I was able to check in 2 hours early. I did not like I had to pay a $191 deposit for my stay. I did not like I had a broken toilet seat when I entered my hotel room, after paying $191 for a deposit. I had to go to the front desk twice to finally get someone to fix it, so my deposit wouldn’t be taken. I think the male hotel clerk knew this before charging me a deposit, that wasn’t expected. After that the day of me checking out, I inquired about my deposit being returned and they told me $70 would be taken out the $191 for parking. Ok. Then I left. It taught me, if a deposit is required of your room, go examine the room before your charge! I didn’t appreciate that one bit! It was ok..I will be looking somewhere else next time.

Everything was great. We only had one complaint. One of our cars was parked with the valet, so keys were left in the attendants possession. While the other car was parked in the same lot but since there was a spot available, we did not need to leave the keys. The next day we got both cars and the one that was parked with the valet service had been used. The radio station had changed, there were drops of dried sticky soda on the center console, and Taco Bell wrappers on the floor mats of the front passenger side. When we asked the morning attendant who had driven the car, they denied it. Other than that issue, the rest of the stay was great, rooms, common areas, and brunch was all great.

Check-in was cold and unwelcoming. The two people at the desk didn't even bother to stand up to greet us. Unfortunately, this set the tone for the entire visit.

The absolute worst moment was check-out. The woman at the front desk was actively having her lunch at the desk and clearly resented being interrupted. When I specifically asked if we needed a receipt or validation for our parking pass, she dismissed me with a bored \"No, you're good.\"

Believing her, we hauled all of our luggage out to the parking garage, only to be stopped by the attendant who said we absolutely needed a ticket receipt.

We then had to struggle back into the lobby with all our bags. When we confronted the receptionist, she didn't apologize or show even a hint of remorse. She just dismissively handed us the ticket without a word and went right back to her lunch. This was an utterly disrespectful and disappointing experience. Do yourself a favor and stay elsewhere.

I stayed in the king room. There was no microwave and no smart TV, so plan on eating cold food and watching basic DirecTV with lots of ads.
If you are traveling with a dog, there is no convenient place at the hotel for them to go potty. You have to walk about one block to Military Park, which is especially inconvenient at night.
One very positive thing for me was that there is a Whole Foods about two blocks away. The cleaning ladies are very nice. Especially Josefa. The receptionist Brianna too.
