The room was fantastic. Very clean, comfortable bed, with enough light, and the internet connection was good most of the time. The host was very friendly and kind. Furthermore, the building is in a very convenient location. It is close to grocery stores and restaurants, as well as Newark Penn Station. This is a plus if you are planning to go to NYC—train tickets are inexpensive, and the trip is quite short.
We only had two issues, which the host can probably easily address. First, there is a window in the bathroom but no curtains. We felt a bit uncomfortable. Again, this is easily fixable and should not be an issue for future guests.
The second problem regarded some of the other guests in the building. There is a well-equipped and brand-new shared kitchen in the apartment. Everything looks perfect. However, a family staying in the other room occupied it most of the time and, on some occasions, left the place dirty. We are sure that the host can adopt practices to avoid these issues in the future, so they shouldn’t be a concern to future guests.
Overall, this was a perfect place to stay in Newark and we will definitely recommend it to our friends. Thanks a lot, Yuki!
