Residence Inn by Marriott Secaucus Meadowlands

Very nice accommodations. Room is a big size so you don't just feel like you are staying in a hotel room. Staff was extremely friendly and accommodating.

The shower pressure is just awful. My only complaint for the whole stay. when I stay somewhere else, I want the shower to be better than my home shower.

Lage nah NYC sehr praktisch. NJ Transit Bus 320 fährt regelmäßig in die Stadt

The hotel is typically good value for money (but not around high season). The rooms, in particular the bathrooms are spacious, basically small apartments with kitchen. NYC/Port Authority Bus Terminal is easily reachable in 20-30 minutes with a direct bus ride (5 USD / person / ride), the bus stop being a few minutes walk away from the hotel. With taxi/car easier and less expensive to reach from Newark airport (by contrast, with public transportation difficult to reach). There is a broad variety of restaurants next to the hotel. Also big Walmart 10 minutes walk away.

Around Christmas time (when we traveled) everything in NYC is full and double the price - same here. So at this time, not good value for money. The breakfast is basic, no meat, cheese, or vegetables. Sadly all utensils are made of plastic, producing lots of unnecessary trash. That said, all this seems to be US standard, so maybe I had wrong expectations. The service personnel is understaffed and does not keep up with the guests' consumption, guests waiting in line - again, probably due to high season around Christmas. The rooms did not seem very clean and the furniture has seen better days. All in all, we booked lacking any other options on rather short notice and did not encounter any big problems, but we would not stay here again.
