I really would like to get this hotel for my upcoming stay because of the free parking and Internet but $63 is $15+ more than others have reported getting it for in the past. I'm up to $54 and rejected for 8/5. My travel agent who has access to PL wholesale tells me I won't be able to do better than $59 but you couldn't even get that (he claimed it was $59 for all days he looked). I don't want to add EWR because I would likely get a 3* hotel there and have to pay for parking. Not sure what to do... I could just have my TA buy it for $59 (of course there is no guarantee it's the Country Inn but that seems to be what everyone gets in Elizabeth).I assume that adding a zone like Jersey City is safe at the $60 range since there is little chance of getting a room there at that price.
