I have stayed here many times during the last 10 yrs when traveling from Michigan to NJ. I like that its a one floor and I can always park right in front of my door making it easy to unload and reload in morning/ The staff is always very polite an makes sure I have a nice quiet room, he has always worked afternoons and always remembers me when I walk in.

Front desks guy's got a pit bull that he let's jump up on guests and isn't leashed or muzzled. I fell unsafe and was extremely anxious. He did nothing but make excuses. Won't use this place again!
