Top Kean University Hotel Reviews

Newark Liberty International Airport Marriott

8/10 Good

"Great location for that morning flight out of Newark"

Hilton Newark Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Excelente servicio, limpias las habitaciones y rico desayuno. Gracias. Bendiciones"

The Kenilworth Hotel - Airport West

10/10 Excellent

"They made our trip memorable . They could not have been more helpful, the staff was always ready to help in any way, the breakfast was good and we always had a clean room, could not have asked for more."

Motel 6 Elizabeth, NJ - Newark Liberty Intl Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Need to fix the bathroom and the door some of them microwave doesnt work and the freezer doesn’t either need to take care of that"

Newark Hansbury Multi Level House

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice and clean place the lady in charge is very friendly and respectful"

GG Rest Inn

8/10 Good

"I read reviews, so had low expectations. Given that, this place was fine for my needs. Room was clean, no bugs. Decent guy running the place. Would have appreciated a towel, but was 3 am by time I realized there was none, so didn't ask. TV remote same; couldn't find a switch on the box. Though room was clean enough, cleaner smell was heavy; window didn't open, so I had to open door for a good while to circulate air. Road noise is a lot as folks said, but that doesn't bother me. Address, Maple but actual entrance facing US1, plus changing names of motel, can be confusing for rideshare drivers, so be ready to clarify location; my first got close then canceled. There are motels closer to EWR, but this one was cheaper; however, for future reference, it might be possible to walk from EWR to Motel 6. Bus here to Rest Inn was tricky, but just $3 +transfer or mile walk, and Uber from EWR wanted $70."
