Large rooms, Great view of the city, Easy to get across the river
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 2/21/08
I recently stayed here as I had to work 2 days in Jersey City and 2 in Midtown.
I had a room facing the city. It was a pretty amazing view you never get when at a hotel inside the city.
The room was huge, by area standards. It had a living area/couch/chair, large desk, kitchenette w/ fridge, and decent closet space.
It was clean and modern...
Jersey City is a 10 minute cab ride (there are busses, and light rail around, too, but I did not try them).
Midtown is amazingly quick to get to...Right outside the hotel's door is the watertaxi/ferry service. For $5 or so, it takes about 5 minutes (running every 15) to get across to 39th street, where there are free buses that pretty much take you anywhere city buses run. Very easy and less crowded than the path trains..
There is a good selection of restaurants within walking distance, too. Try the Chart House for awesome good and a great view of the city...
