We had a great stay at Henry’s. Keep in mind that you get what you pay for and make sure to not only read the description but the reviews. I feel they all accurately depicted our situation.
Transportation - Our first day was a mess when figuring out the transportation. We took an Uber to the path and were given all sorts of wrong information. We ended up taking a bus and then figuring out the bus system during our stay. The bus was easy to catch when going into the city and fast. It was $3.50 per person from jersey city to New York and you can pay cash on the bus. Keep in mind coming back from New York City it is $6 per person and if you try to catch a late night bus on Saturday keep in mind it may not come on time. The buses are operated by a private company and are known to be unreliable late night on the weekends. You should buy a single ride ticket when coming back on the bus but we learned some bus drivers take cash. The bus numbers that we used and thought were easy and close were the 119 and the 125. They pick you up one block from the house and drop you off one block from time square.
Parking: Mission Impossible. When we got in late night all the streets were packed. We weren’t sure how the parking worked and asked Henry who did communicate back. He sent us a link on how to get a permit, so if you want to park try to get this link early. It seems like even with a permit the streets were packed and you would have to move your car when they clean the streets. We parked our car in Union City / Hoboken on Jefferson at a lot called Little Man. It was $20 on sat and sun to park all day and $10 M-F.
The Room: The room is nice. It is on the first floor so no need to worry about stairs. It had a bed, a couch, a light, a closet and a nightstand. The bed was not good. A word to the wise, watch your knees and your legs every time you walk around it due to the bed frame. The mattress was okay. For the price, it is what it is. A key thing to note about the room, or the house as a whole, is that you can hear everything. When people are talking, walking, cooking, showering etc. The walls are really thin.
The house: There is a great kitchen. We did not cook but all of the others in the house seemed to cook. A big fridge and a nice table to sit at. The Bathroom was great and the shower was nice. Keep in mind you should bring your own shower supplies. The Internet worked great.
Arrival: The place was easy to find, the codes all worked great and aside from the parking, on our end, everything was easy and ready for us.
Overall we had a great stay and were happy with our experience.
