I stayed at this property for two nights (July 22-24). It is in the "Plaza at Harmon Meadows" complex with a bunch of other hotels, stores and a mall (more info here). As with the other hotels in the area, the bus going to the Port Authority in Manhattan stops steps from the hotel ($2.85 each way). Attached to the hotel is an Outback Steakhouse which is open late (takeout until 1:00 AM I believe).

After my bid of $58 was accepted, I called the hotel to confirm the reservation and request a non-smoking room. Once I arrived at the hotel I was able to check in a couple hours early without any issues and got a NS room as requested. The staff was friendly and helpful. Covered parking is available a few steps away from the back entrance to the hotel.

The room was nice and clean if not a bit on the small side. My room had a King-sized bed with a couch (possibly pullout - I didn't bother to check) but I got the impression from the front desk that I could have had double beds if I wanted. The bed itself was comfy - the goose-down duvet was a nice change from those usually worn out polyester blankets at some other places. The pillows were also feather filled but I found them too high (sore neck in the morning). The bathroom was pretty cramped - they even put the coffee maker on the counter top (even though there is plenty of room on the drawers and desk in the main area). No microwave or mini-fridge to be found (a microwave is available in the lobby). The a/c system was good - easy to use and quiet.

Overall I was pretty pleased with this property and wouldn't hesitate to stay again.
