The first room they assigned us smelled like smoke and had garbage outside the door. It was supposed to be a non-smoking room.

On the breakfast bar, the property catered to individuals that had specific diets.Additionally, they were of great assistance to my mom in as far as helping with her bags. The place was extremely clean, and the beds were vsry comfortable. We really appreciated the full kitchen with oven. Great place

This property has been in Newark a long time, and has been completely refurbished by Sonesta. What it offers is a suite experience, but a much more spacious layout than an average suite hotel. My king suite had a private entrance, full kitchen with eating area, plenty of living space, lots of storage, a comfy king bed, and a large bathroom. Everything was very clean, and the kitchen was well stocked and had nice full-size appliances. The staff were great, and this is a fantastic location right off 95 and close to UD. I will be staying here every time I visit Newark from now on.
