We were here for a Friday - Monday stay and overall it was fine. The not so good. A river runs behind the hotel with a walkway alongside it. The fencing and walkway are not maintained, and unhoused people frequented the benches throughout our stay. (This may be a town issue and not a hotel issue, but it definitely hurts the feel of the hotel and the perceived safety when traveling with young kids). The parking is 22 dollars per night and they don't have adequate space for parking. Fire lanes we blocked by rows of cars, people were creating parking spots where non existed blocking the flow of traffic and in some cases blocking parked cars. Very chaotic parking situation especially when you're being charged extra for it. Breakfast during the week days is served at 6 am, for some reason on the weekend it's not until 7. We are here for a travel baseball tournament, if you have an 8 am game you need to be at the field at 7, that means your kid and family miss out on the free breakfast because it didn't start until 7. If they would add a multi level parking garage to accommodate guests and work with whoever they need to address to make the back of the property feel clean and safe along the river this would be a 5 star review.

I was mislead by the reviews as well as the price for parking onsite each day. From checkin to checkout, customer service was blunt, nonchalant, and unwelcoming. Our reward status was not recognized, addresses, or mentioned. Also, when I complained about the cold temperature in both rooms that I booked, my complaints were downplayed, and condescended. My complaints were not addressed and my bill was not comped in any way, despite reporting that the room was cold each day. We were out of the room majority of each day, so we made the best of our trip during the short stay. Again, I do not recommend this hotel. This hotel is a negative reflection of Marriott Bonvoy, and does not value customer service.

The first room we were assigned smelled like acetone / strong cleaning chemicals. Kinda like they were trying to clean up the smell of cigarettes or maybe a biohazard. The second room thankfully didn't have that smell. But the heater didn't work and didn't get over 70 degrees, which definitely sucked in the middle of December. On top of all this, the hotel falsely charged us 7.40$ for a breakfast that we never ate. I noticed it as I was reviewing my credit card statement. MAKE SURE YOU CHECK YOUR CREDIT CARD when you stay here, but honestly just don't stay here.

I had a quick stay here while in Newark prior to catching an early morning international flight and…read moreI was pretty pleased with the experience. I first checked on rates, then location - since I would be staying here for only 12 hours, I didn't really need much aside from that, safety and basic cleanliness - and it delivered on all of those needs! One sell, was that they have an airport shuttle that runs every 30 minutes making it really easy to get back to the airport whenever you need to. Check in was a breeze and honestly, the room was much more spacious, comfortable and modern than I expected. Overall, for a simple stay this is a pretty solid choice that checks all of the boxes for a quick stay while in Newark!

Stayed at this Hampton Inn expecting the usual Hilton standard, but this was one of the worst…read moreexperiences I've had in over 600 stays. I was denied extra pillows despite explaining it was due to a medical need (something I've never been denied at any Hilton property before). The room's AC unit was extremely loud, constantly turning on and off throughout the night, making it nearly impossible to sleep. When I called the front desk, I was told they were at capacity and there was no one available to address it. The most concerning issue was the airport shuttle. It was overbooked by the hotel, and I was actually asked to let another guest sit in my lap during transport. That's not just uncomfortable--it's unsafe and completely unacceptable. When I contacted the hotel manager afterward to request a refund under Hampton's satisfaction guarantee, I was dismissed, told to "get over it," and the call was ended. I've stayed at Hampton Inns for years and have always had good experiences, which made this especially disappointing. Issues can happen anywhere, but the lack of resolution and professionalism here was the bigger problem.

Pros: The hotel itself is pretty good. My first time using digital key and I loved it. The hotel…read moreroom was clean and had a good floor plan. I loved that I could slide a barn door to close in the bedroom if needed. My room was close to elevator and the clean supply room so I was a little worried about outside noise. Although I only stayed over on a Monday night even without ever closing the bedroom door it was very quiet. I had a small issue with somehow dropping my phone down into the ice machine (horror) but maintenance was very responsive and quickly got it back for me. Housekeeping was very friendly. Front desk was ok, although I feel like they could have anticipated or understood my question better when I asked about hotel shuttle. They have a sign stating where the shuttle picks up. I asked about it but they just said that it was coreect, so then I made an an attempt to find the location on the sign. When I got back to the elevator and realized it didnt go down or anywhere that might be a level cars would park or etc. I went back and asked where to find the location. They said it was where the shuttle picked up at the airport. Then is said where does it pick up here. They asked when did I need it. I said now. They said ok they would add me to a list. So #1. Why would someone checking out of the hotel need to know where the airport shuttle picks up passengers at the airport. And even if that is useful information, shouldn't it also inform where or what is needed in order to get picked up at hotel. Specifically this would seem important if the check in line was long. #2 He never answered my question about where the shuttle picks up at hotel. Once i realized the shuttle sign was useless, I assumed it picked up outside the doors and it did but this entire exchange made me feel like I was an inconvenience rather than a customer. Cons: breakfast had no flavor. I'm not expecting a lot from a free breakfast but usually the flavorless eggs have cheese or something you can add to the top to give it a little something. The vanilla pancake topped with whip cream and strawberries was ok but again very little flavor. Plus not something I could eat had I been on a hurry or had an early flight out. Other Hampton breakfasts do a little better job. Maybe Monday's are just not busy enough to warrant more.

The bathroom had the essentials and the water pressure for the shower was good. There was even a giant lounge chair in the room for relaxing -- I made a mental note to find something similar for my own home. 1 star off: The property is quiet from airport noise, but the walls were kind of thin from hallway noise. I woke up in the middle of the night from conversations in the hallway. The best part about this hotel is its proximity to Newark Airport. It's only a 7 minute drive, hence great for early morning flights or unfortunate overnight layovers. The hotel has a shuttle that runs 24/7 to the airport. You just tell the front desk when you want it and meet the shuttle 5 minutes before your scheduled time.

The lobby is beautiful--clean, modern, and exactly what you see in the photos. That's actually what led me to book the hotel. However, the rooms are a completely different story. When we checked in, I specifically asked if there were more updated rooms, since I assumed the hotel might have renovated sections. The front desk staff member was very kind and helpful, but the first room we were given was in really poor condition--chipped paint everywhere, a bad smell in the bathroom, and visible mold in the vent. It felt neglected and far from clean. We asked to switch rooms and were told the only options were the 10th floor or the 1st floor. Since the 10th floor looked just as worn down, we chose the 1st floor. The staff member did warn us it might be noisy due to the pool and said the pool closed at 8 PM, which seemed reasonable. Unfortunately, the noise was not from the pool. There was constant yelling, screaming, and doors slamming throughout the night. It felt chaotic and made it very difficult to relax or sleep. The second room was still in rough shape--more chipped paint, run-down finishes, and the towels were dry and rough. At times, the room even smelled like cigarette smoke, likely coming from a nearby room, which was really unpleasant. I do want to note that every staff member we interacted with was extremely kind and professional. This is clearly not a reflection of them--they were doing their best. The issue is the condition of the property itself. Overall, this hotel feels more like a rundown motel with a very nice lobby. I would not recommend staying here unless you are okay with outdated, poorly maintained rooms.

This hotel is all about location. The hotel is relatively close to the airport: when I say…read morerelatively it takes you about 15 minutes with low traffic to get to the hotel by uber. The hotel does offer a shuttle bus. Less time to get back to the airport as you can slip right on the highway going that direction. Once we entered the hotel there was a long line to check in. The staff was working the line the best they could. We were informed that the key making machine was not working thus the process was slower the usual. The room was basic. Looks like the room was partly remodeled. The bathroom sink and the bathroom showed the age of this hotel. The room provided the basics and the bed was clean. Room was good enough for one night. On the plus side the hotel offers washing machine and dryers for a fee. Great for travelers who are on the move. Breakfast looked like it was expansive for a Springhill.

Not the one that makes you text the group chat, okay wait, why is this airport hotel kind of eating. But it was good enough. The room did what it needed to do. The stay was functional. The whole place felt more like a layover with walls than a destination, but sometimes that is exactly the assignment. Bed. Shower. Regain composure. Keep it moving. There was nothing especially glamorous about the experience, but it never fully spiraled into chaos either. It sat in that very specific airport-hotel lane where your standards adjust in real time and suddenly phrases like clean enough and close enough start sounding romantic. It is the kind of place where you are not falling in love, but you are nodding in approval and saying, alright, you did your part. The staff really carried it though. Friendly. Helpful. Responsive. Easy energy. No attitude. No unnecessary friction. They gave the whole stay a boost and made the experience feel way smoother than the property probably deserves on paper. Honestly, they were doing character actor excellence in a hotel that was not exactly giving blockbuster. The atmosphere is pure transit-core. In and out. Bags rolling. People trying to remember what time zone they are in. Not luxurious. Not dreadful. Just very much a place where everyone has somewhere else to be. it's giving... the friend who is not the hottest in the group but somehow keeps saving the night.
