I can't say enough good things about this place. Ross and his family were so welcoming. From the snacks to the detailed rail/subway instructions even down to the milk in the refrigerator, I felt at home as soon as I arrived.
I'm still in a bit of disbelief that I could get a place this nice/big so close to NYC for such a great price. Taking the light rail/subway into the city is a breeze. I did it daily, sometimes multiple times a day. The neighborhood is relatively quiet and I always felt safe. Parking on Pacific isn't bad, you just need to make sure to keep up what side you can be on for what day/time. I was able to park right out front for most of my stay. If you'd like, you can park in the nearby light rail parking lot for around $3-$4 a day, with an overnight security guard.
I can't speak enough to how helpful Ross was during my trip. It was my first time in Jersey City and I had a million questions throughout my stay. Ross was more than happy to answer them, and was just a text away! He was a great guide to Jersey City, which actually has some pretty great places to go. Between running in Liberty State Park (right next door), checking out the downtown restaurants, and visiting the Barcade, there were days I didn't even want to cross into NYC.
I won't hesitate to stay here again next time I'm in town! Cozy/charming describe it perfectly.
