We were given an upgrade when we checked in which was appreciated. The front desk was very kind and helpful giving information. The room was clean and smelled very clean. This is a motor lodge and very close to the highway. As such, I suggest bringing earplugs for the noise if that bothers you. The bed was comfortable. This is a no frills motel, so don't expect perfection. For the price, it was worth the one night stay.

Great bang for your buck

Excellent value. Inexpensive without compromising cleanliness. Close to South Amboy Station. Pillows needed updating and only 2 provided. Walls are a little thin, but it wasn’t too loud. Definitely recommend this place if you’re on a budget.

Dont judge a book by its cover

The outside parking lot and location was terrible, but the price was fantastic. I was shocked at the room itself, it was absolutely immaculate. Everything was extremely clean,smelled great. The staff was meh, but they tried being nice and if you needed something it was done immediately

Liked: Cleanliness
This is a motor lodge and that means cars in and out. I expected it, but another patron was complaining about it. Check in was done somewhat quickly but the type of room I reserved wasn't first available and I was offered a similarly priced room; however, the king became available during checkin. It was fine for a stopover.

If you’re looking for quick rest stop, and you are alone, i think this place will be good enough. Not recommended for families.

Paid online via Expedia. Get there and told room unavailable. After stating that I paid online and it’s in refundable I was givin a room. Outside there were kids ages 6-12 running around screaming until 1-2AM. This was a last minute stay, but will plan better so I won’t EVER get stuck in this rathole again!!
