Just knocking one star off for how expensive the round trip ferry and parking is: $9.50 each way, and, basically $10-20 for parking garage. (See photos for details.) Otherwise, it's the best way to commute to NYC.

Our car was vandalized at Little Man's Port Imperial garage recently, on both of the sides of the…read morecar and the back of it. The garage has a some cameras but has no visible security patrol. It is poorly lit in many places. The North and South garage are managed by the same company, Little Man, and they a lot of garages in the NYC area. We used the North. The unattended garages have no dedicated security patrol. We observed what seems like a playground for mischief on the day we found the damage -- groups of kids on bicycles, and even motorcycles (without license plates) cruising around the garage. Some seemed to check out the place and park for free. Cars also were observed to be speeding around the garage. Our weekend calls to both the ferry company and Littleman parking office were not staffed, so there was no way to easily reach anyone in an emergency. Just voicemail. We reached the office manager on Monday 9/23/24 who said no liability (read contract) and she will review tapes. We also called the supervisor (Carlos, 201-217-1683) to talk about our observations and concerns -- and the damage to the car. We left a message for Carlos with our number for him to call back about the damage. Days went by and we didn't get a call back. So we called the main NJ office again a week later (9/30/24). We spoke to the person who answered and told him we didn't hear back. He said he would contact Carlos and have him call us. Again no reply from the supposed, "supervisor" Carlos or anyone. It's been two weeks since we tried to reach him. There has also been no word about the result of the office review of the tapes by the garage salesperson who works Monday - Friday. She did offer to let us go through the tapes ourself. But that is not easy mid week and they should be doing it and reporting back. Again it's been several weeks and nothing. No word. No supervisor. The car itself was parked in clear view of a camera, although the date of the vandalism is not known since the garage never even observed the damage before we contacted them. The damage was only observed by us when attempting to retrieve the car. It seems they take no responsibility and don't even want to discuss our security concerns. This is very disappointing and very lacking in security and seriousness. The garage is dimly lit and feels neglected. The lack of concern by Little Man is very noteworthy. Of course they should take responsibility for the issues at the garage. But they have not demonstrated responsible behavior or addressed the seriousness of the issue, which seems systemic.

Not a full service ferry station - it's little more than a pier and a printed poster with a…read moreschedule of the ferry times. They don't sell tickets here, nor do they sell tickets on board the boat - instead you'll have to download the NY Waterway mobile app to buy tickets. Alternatively, you might be able to buy a ticket at the Sheraton Hotel across the street, but that might be only for hotel guests. The ferry into NYC is super quick - about 6 mins during rush hour. However, the downside is that the connecting shuttle bus in NYC (included in the $9 price of the ferry ticket) does not leave right away, but rather waits at the NYC terminal for about 5-6 mins until the bus gets more full. Not a dealbreaker, but still a gripe. There are different routes for the shuttle - downtown / midtown / etc., so make sure to read the sign before boarding the bus. They are parked directly outside the terminal. From the Lincoln Harbor terminal to Flatiron district in NYC door to door is roughly 30 mins. (6 mins river crossing + 1 min walk to bus + 6 mins wait time at bus + bus travel through NYC traffic). Price per person is $9 one-way (cheaper if you buy monthly passes). For a cheaper (but more cumbersome) alternative route, consider walking to the Lincoln Harbor Light Rail stop (about a 4 min walk - near the Weehawken Whole Foods), then take the light rail to Hoboken terminal. Get off, walk to the PATH, and then take the PATH into NYC. This way will cost $5 per person each way (so about half what the ferry costs), but it involves significantly more walking and waiting (especially if you miss the light rail, which runs every 12-15 mins weekdays into Hoboken - and doesn't stop at Hoboken on the weekends).

Great potential, but terrible follow through. The NY Waterway is definitely he quickest way to get…read morefrom Weehawken to Midtown; it only costs $9 bucks. However, there are many cons aside from the 7 minute ride. The ferry was in poor condition that I was on, it just appears dirty and dingy. Once I reached Midtown-- the boat returning to NJ looked a lot better, so maybe it's hot or miss. The ferry driver/ticket man didn't seem to have many social skills, and just wasn't friendly in the least. This was our first time riding and since they don't sell tickets onboard, we had issues with the app to purchase the tickets. He seemed flustered about that after we told him the app gave us all an issue. He then proceeded to stare at his watch while we were talking-- I understand you have a schedule to keep, but be a decent human being. All and all, it's a rapid way to travel, it's probably too expensive for such a short ride, the boat seems raggedy--- but again, it's an extremely quick way to travel that surely beats the NJ Transit bus.

I especially want to thank Paul W. and Tom B., as they easily could have pulled away, but they didn't. Because of them, I was able to make the ferry. I also had a chance to chat briefly with Paul, and he was extremely kind and polite. While I was there, I also saw him help another passenger by giving clear directions to the light rail, which I thought was really thoughtful. I've been taking the ferry for over 20 years, and it's great to see someone like Paul on the Lincoln Harbor/Hoboken route. Great customer service like that does not go unnoticed.

Do not get distracted by people who look like they work for the terminal authority they are just trying to lock you in on a paid tour to Statue of Liberty. So just stay focus, and get in line for the free ride to Staten Island. Also don't panic these ferry boats are insanely big so you will find a spot to get the views you want. If you leave from NYC stick to the right side and go upstairs for the best photos. Once you've made it to Staten Island without any wait, you get off and roll back into another boat (SI To Manhattan) and do it all over again. If you still want to see the Liberty statue leaving from Staten Island, stick to the left. From Manhattan to SI stick to the right and try to get on the second floor. If you want to explore what's around the area a short walk will take you to Wall Street, you'll see the bull and Trinity Church (where Hamilton and Eliza and Philip are buried). Also with going inside the church even with their very strict security check -- we had to even take Apple Watches which was a first but I'm all about safety so whatever they ask, I'll gladly do it. So if near Wall Street make Trinity Church a stop just like that silly snatching bull! ;)

The views are nice, the ferries leave on time, and it's free. Hard not to like this place, even with the obvious issues.

I ran down the boardwalk at 8:16 at Hoboken 14th st since the ferry arrived early and was letting people off. I arrived on the boarding dock at 8:19pm, arriving before the scheduled departure at 8:22pm - 3 minutes early! They closed the gate and the boat left me there in the rain and had to wait for another 20 minutes for the next ferry. The captain saw me there and drove off early anyways. They just decided to leave me there even though the ferry was still at the dock. When the next one arrived at 8:38pm, I asked to confirm if the schedule was different from the app and the first staff checking tickets said it's the same as on the app. I asked if the boat leaves early and he brushed me off saying "why are you asking me, I don't drive the boat". I asked another female staff she responded with "what do you want me to do about it?" after explaining what happened. I said wanted to file a complaint and she said I needed to call in providing no contact information. I asked for the captain's name and I was refused to be provided his/her name. On top of poor schedule operations, I was left with rude attitudes and customer service. I hope that they would train their captain and staff better and improve the service in the future but given my interactions I doubt it. Take caution if you decide to use this service. Apparently this is a frequent thing that they do but no one takes accountability.
