Jamel's place was was bigger than I expected, and a great value for its proximity to EWR and Newark Union station! We had a brief but very comfortable stay, and liked that it was self check-in so we didn't have to bother anyone when we got in late at night.
That being said, I still ended up trying to text Jamel when we arrived because I was a little confused where to go... which I felt silly about in retrospect, because he has very clear instructions (with pictures!) about which doors to enter and how to use the keypad – I just couldn't see those when navigating around the mobile airbnb site. So just a heads up for future guests, it's much easier to find the address and check-in info if you go to airbnb's reservation reminder email and click on "Get Instructions" next to the listed check-in/out times. (Maybe it's obvious to most people, but despite having used airbnb on a number of trips now, I didn't realize this!)
Anyway, we got in fine, and Jamel was very nice about the whole thing. The apartment was very clean, and I especially appreciated the thoughtful touches Jamel left for guests – a Keurig for morning coffee, snacks, info/menus for local restaurants that deliver, and bathroom toiletries. Great amenities and incredible value! Would definitely stay again if I'm in the area.
