Howard Johnson North Bergen Nj

wear you slippers

This hotel location was fabulous! Room was a little musty but, bathroom and beds were very clean. The rugs need desperately to be changed, not just cleaned, changed. other than that I would recommend for an overnight!! Like I said fabulous location close to manhattan

not gonna recommend this hotel(?) to others

I really fed up with this hotel due to smell and even terrible bugs. I couldn't sleep whole night.

In the middle of nowhere but close to NYC

The hotel was located on one side of a divided street and you had to go past and u-turn to get back to it. For people who don't like to walk up a large hill it could be inconvenient. Continental breakfast was nothing special but it got the job done. The room was very big but the carpet was a little on the dirty side. It was VERY close to the Lincoln Tunnel and very fast to get into NYC, and you can't beat the low price to stay there.There was an excellent little restaurant next door called La Fusta with some of the best meals I've ever had at reasonable prices. Great deal if you're not too picky.

Sub-par

The main reason I checked out this hotel is because it is about as close to NYC as you can get without having to pay the higher prices of Manhattan. With that being said, it was difficult to find reasonably priced transportation to and from the city. The room was musty, and the staff were not enthusiastic to help out their customers.

Need Improvement

The hotel seems to be old and somethings need to be changed! The carpet is duty and that is a lot of dust in it.

Good room for the money

This hotel is very humble. What made it appealing to me was that it was available when all others were booked in Manhattan during a very busy time, the end of the U.S. Open and the beginning of Fashion Week. Hotel located just 15 minutes across the bridge in Jersey with OK shuttle service, departures & returns. The one major dissapointment was the air-conditioning smelled moldy. If that was corrected the hotel would have received a 4 out 5. A little Italian restaurant near by but other than that you are better off eating in Manhattan or ordering a pizza. Not a neighborhood to exploring. Would recommend if you need to be in Manhattan for a budget but do not want to stay in a hostel.

ok

Ok to stay considering pricy ones in NYC. There is a NJ bus 125 going to NYC daily every hour, about 5 minute walk from hotel

Needs Improvement

We did consider other guest reviews and proximity to NYC. The outside hallways had dirty carpet with a strange odor. We were shocked that our room was clean. The bathroom was also surprisingly clean. For the price, we were satisfied. We only slept there each night. We spent most of our time in NYC.

Great room for the money

We stayed for three nights. Location was very close to Jersey city downtown and Lincon & Hollond tunnels. There was some problem with cable they gave us another room because they couldnt fix it right away. Bed was nice and rooms were clean. Only thing I couldnt figure out was a strange smell.. dont know if it was coming from AC or the carpet. Guess they can use some carpet cleaning. But overall good for the price that we paid.
