A fun place to stay in a rapidly changing neighborhood. These two free-standing houses make a lovely, small hotel. They are literally in the shadow of the new skyscrapers near the Journal Square PATH station. The new entrance is less than a 2-minute walk. There is a small outdoor seating area behind and between the two houses. The rooms are adequate, and reasonably well furnished. Many of the rooms have shared bathrooms (salle de bain partagée) which are clean and efficient. The vibe is well-worn, low-key but fun. This is a good place to sleep when exploring Jersey City, nearby restaurants, or taking the train into Manhattan. (trains are direct to 33rd St. and World Trade Center)
