"Nice condo, clean, very comfortable beds and furniture. Went for an event at MetLife Stadium and had no issues. Hosts were very helpful with a couple of unusual requests we had (our party split up and still needed access, no worries). Parking was not at all a problem as others had mentioned. If we find ourselves needing a place on the NJ side of the NYC metro again, this will be our first choice."
