Pros:
This is a great option for travelers who are taking a weekender to Jersey City / NYC area. Super close to PATH train (like a 4 minute walk) & about a 20 minute ride into NYC/Manhattan area. Close to some good breakfast spots + food options. Clean. Easy check-in. The backyard courtyard are was absolutely precious. Totally safe area, felt comfortable walking from PATH at night.
Cons:
As far as value goes, I guess the going rate for the area is typically more expensive, for less amenities. Hosts can easily get away with providing less amenities in this area, because people will spend the majority of their time outside of the space. However, the bed was extremely hard + the pillows were flat. There was no complimentary water in the fridge, so if you’ve spent a long day of travel and need some refreshing water before plopping down on the stone-hard bed to relax, get it before arriving to the AirBnB. There are no wall plug-in’s, only an extension cord with 2 outlet options. If you’ve got a suitcase larger than a carry-on you can forget having any walking-space. Make use of the wardrobe if you can.
All in all, it worked for what we needed for the weekend. But it was underwhelming and seriously lacked the amenities I’m accustomed to having in AirBnB’s that I’ve stayed in ALL across the country (that have cost the same + [and many times] less than this AirBnB). Also, this is the first time I’ve ever left a less than positive, 5⭐️ review on an AirBnB.
