My brother and I went to Newark for a concert. This was our first airbnb experience and it was great. Marlene was an excellent host. She was very hospitable and nice. She made me feel like I was home. The room was exactly as description and it was clean. She had everything we needed. When she noticed my brother and I often went to the kitchen to use the microwave, she brought her extra microwave into our bedroom to make our lives easier. The neighborhood was really quiet and there were restaurants nearby. You could even order food to the house. Marlene took care of us very well. A bonus point of her was that she knew my favorite artists that I went to Prudential Center to see! Definitely staying at her house again when visiting Newark.
