Title: Comfortable Stay for a Group, But Some Trade-offs
My family and I came to Newark, NJ for Thanksgiving to visit our family is in New York, and this property worked well for our group of six. Here are some pros and cons to consider:
Pros:
* Spacious and Affordable: The unit was roomy, with multiple bathrooms, which was a huge benefit for our group. It was also reasonably priced.
* Clean and as Described: The unit was clean and exactly as shown in the listing, which we appreciated.
* Proximity to Newark Airport: It was very close to Newark Airport, which was convenient for travel.
* Local Shops: Local shops and restaurants are within walking distance, and we enjoyed walking around the neighborhood.
Cons:
* Neighborhood: The area isn’t the cleanest and historically isn’t the safest. While I felt comfortable being with a group, others might find it a bit of a culture shock.
* Not Ideal for NYC Access: While it’s not too far from the city, it’s not the most convenient option for those relying on public transportation to Manhattan. If you're looking for easy subway or bus access to NYC, this may not be the best choice.
* Noise from Upstairs Neighbors: We could hear everything the people upstairs were saying and walking around, which was mostly late at night and could be disruptive.
Overall: It was a good stay for our group, especially considering the space and affordability. The host was very responsive to any questions. However, if you’re seeking a quieter, more convenient location for NYC access, this may not be the best fit.
