  • Perfect location, friendly staff, free breakfast, free internet, free parking.

“After staying in a 3.5 star hotel that cost us arm and leg, this hotel was much better deal with free parking, free internet, free breakfast. We were traveling with our little baby and had to check in early. Front office person, did not turn us down with our request and we even checked in a bit early. In the room, the hotel management has a booklet that says they care about their customers. They do stand to their commitment about their customer service. Over all we had a very happy time at this hotel. I highly recommend this property.”

  • Nothing.
  • Customer service was horrible, room was not clean and the decor is old and smelly.

“This hotel is probably the worst I have ever stayed in. The decor is old, smelly and the room was not clean. The bathroom was bad! The location is also not very good. Finally, the customer service was awful. The guest rep threw my card on the counter at me and I had to demand that she hand it to me as I had done to her. This is definitely not indicative of the service I expect from a Marriott. I will never stay there when visiting again.”

  • Convenient access to downtown Manhattan by bus, only 20minute ride.
  • The fitness equipment was outdated, would have enjoyed a larger fitness centre with newer equipment.

“This hotel had a great breakfast every morning. The items varied somewhat. The bus to Manhattan stops directly in front of the hotel and runs till the late night. The room was clean and the staff was friendly. They can store your bags after check out if you want to continue sightseeing in Manhattan or you may store your bags in the city at Schwartz Travel.”

  • Good customer service.
  • No shuttle service.

“I enjoyed the hotel very much and I stayed there for 4 days and was very comfortable. The rooms were comfortable and were beyond my expectations. Breakfast was good, with a lot of varieties. The bus line is right outside the hotel and not too long or expensive of a ride into the city or to New Jersey's Mall. I would definitely stay here again, within in this area.”

  • We liked the proximity to the bus line.
  • There was no hotel computer available for guests.

“With the mix up with beds in the room on the first night we arrived, the stay was pretty good. I believe that due to the rating of the hotel, it attracts some unsavory guests. Good proximity to the bus line, but no convenient shopping facilities in walking distance. The service at the desk was sometimes rude, not very helpful and not very informative on issues that they should be aware of (i.e., how to get to certain freeway systems, where the closest shopping areas were, where restaurants were, etc.). In essence, the hotel served it is purpose for us; a clean, safe place to only rest and put our stuff while visiting the NJ/NY area.”

  • Courteous helpful staff, excellent breakfast, convenient public transportation.
  • The micro wave oven had broken down but there were plenty of other food choices. There was a new oven by breakfast the next day.

“This hotel provided a clean, safe, convenient, economical place to stay while visiting New York City. It was simple, easy and inexpensive to meet up with public transportation into the city. Good parking for private vehicle. The breakfast included with the room had great variety of foods. The dining area was bright and open.”

  • The lady at the front desk could not have been any more friendly and helpful.
  • Cleaning people knocked on my door even though I had a "privacy please" notice on the door.

“The lady at the front desk should be given a raise, or promotion, or whatever she wants. She was the nicest, friendliest, most helpful person I have ever met at a hotel. Unfortunately, I cannot say the same for the cleaning staff. What don't they understand about the "privacy please" sign? It means don't bother me, please; not, come in and wake me up because you want to clean the room. Checkout time was 12:00; they woke me up before 10. They were very rude.”

  • No hot water.

“Finding the hotel initially was a problem and I was familiar with the area. Also, more important, when I complained about no hot water to take a shower at 5pm, they did move me to another room, but still no hot water. Also, the heater did not work correctly. ”

  • Breakfast buffet was included each morning in the lobby area and it was great.
  • Drains in bathroom were very slow to drain out.

“The Fairfield inn/Marriott located in east Rutherford no was ideally located for an event we attended at the meadowlands expo center. Approximate 5 min drive. The continental breakfast included in the room rate and located in the hotel lobby was a lot more than we had anticipated (more that just donuts and bagels)! And was quite enjoyable.”

  • Great location for travel to NYC Port Authority
  • Smelly, poor drainage in bathroom, cushy beds

“The hotel looks nice from the outside. Lobby is decent. Stuffy odor upon entering the hotel and in our room with AC on, the odor was not really that noticeable. The beds are extremely cushy. The bathroom is okay but poor drainage in shower and sink. The continental breakfast is okay. Location of the hotel is great, it's takes < 15 minutes to get to NYC Port Authority on the #163 or 164 bus. From EWR we took the #62 bus to Newark Penn Station, then the #76 bus to Patterson Rd, then caught the #163 to the Fairfield Inn.”
