We really enjoyed staying at Richard's place. We were a little nervous at first when you do a google search and you see what the place looks like and what street it is on, but, don't let that stop you from checking it out! Richard is getting the front of the house surfaced, so, it won't look like the pictures soon. Here's my thoughts - 1) This is a GREAT deal for a 3-bedroom place in Jersey City/Hoboken. When you have 3 older teenagers coming with you, having a bit of space is a lifesaver! 2) Being able to park right in front of the door was wonderful. It's not a guarantee, but, most of the time, we got it. We never really had to look around for a parking spot. It looks like a whole bunch of new condos are being built right next door and construction is going on everywhere, but, never affected us. We've stayed in Jersey City a few times before and this location is a bit farther up north, but, it's basically the same distance to the PATH trains from spaces we've stayed at before. We also got to spend some time in Hoboken because of the location. It's across the street from shelter, so, don't be surprised to see homeless people, but, it never presented any problems for us. The area is SAFE!
