Americas Best Value Inn

DO NOT STAY HERE! I’m not usually the type to write bad reviews or even return faulty products but my husband stayed at this hotel while on business and the room was infested with bed bugs. We contacted the company and they claimed that the bed bugs weren’t from their hotel, which is absolutely laughable. The suitcase my husband used was brand new and he hadn’t been anywhere except for our home (which is completely pest free). After staying in the hotel for a day he started to feel itchy after the second night his entire body was covered in bites (which I have many pictures of).
We spent over $ 100 on prescription creams and getting all of my husbands items laundered and sanitized. My husband contacted the company and asked them to reimburse part of these costs and they refused to do anything, at all, not even a penny or a voucher after making us wait an entire week for a response! The customer service was absolutely horrible, I wish we had spent the extra money so that he could have stayed at a nicer place, it would have cost us much less money, trouble and pain in the long run. Save yourself the trouble and go somewhere else!

This is my second time there. and the LAST. My room must of been in a flood because the floor was not level in areas. There were parts of the floor that there was no flooring underneath the carpet? Low and high areas all over the room. Walking in the room was an adventure.
Bring your own tissues. There are NOT provided.
The worst thing is that the reservation system messed up several of our reservations for the last time. The 15% discount with their chain is a joke. You never can get it. I am dropping out of their program and never to return.

So, I had a short layover in Newark with the possibility of catching 5 hours of shuteye between flights. Should I just stay at the airport and try to snooze or get the cheapest hotel nearby with free airport shuttle service?
I opted for the latter when I saw the deal here for £37. After a 7 hour flight from London and my body being reminded by my jetlagged brain that it was actually 5am and not midnight, I was very happy to see Charlie and the hotel shuttle turn up at P4. The roads around Newark Airport are a warren and I was very glad not to be driving
Irvington is about 15 minutes from the airport and at that time of night, a mere 15 minute trip. The hotel isn’t really that close to any shops but I was only after a soft pillow for 5 hours
So, how does one judge a hotel? This hotel really comes in 2 parts. The part outside the bedroom is a little shady to be honest. I have a suspicion that it’s used by umm ladies of the night as there were a lot of men wanting short stay rooms, accompanied by ladies who seemed quite unfamiliar to them. The corridors had a musty smell and there was no lift
However, to be fair, the room was nice. It was large, clean with no smell. The beds were big. The TV was big. The bathroom was big. The wifi was free. The parking was free
So, if you can avert your eyes at checkin and run to your room, for the price, it’s a 4 star experience. I would return if I was in the same scenario but if I was staying for a few days, I’d probably go elsewhere

This time is my second time staying here.
Here it goes:
LOCATION
This is area is not the greatest, but least to say you can get good food at good prices and they deliver.
SERVICE
Very good. The airport transfer is great. Wifi works well. The rooms are large and clean. The breakfast is good.
QUALITY
Overall 3.5. Good bed, good sized rooms, big parking lot if you drive, convenient location.
ACCESSIBILITY
The Irvington bus terminal is a few minutes away and the 107 takes you right into NY PENN STATION. Also the frequency is good. Highways are close by also.
I like this place, its just in a rough area. Just be wise not to get back to the hotel too late.
I would stay again.

Parking lot is ghetto, I was worried about my Jeep the whole time I was away. Also, there is only ONE shuttle that runs out of the hotel. I received very broad directions on where to report for the shuttle to pick me up from the airport and I’ve waited over a half hour, when the place is not even ten minutes away. Spend a lil more and go else where to park.

While this hotel isn’t the Plaza, it wasn’t the Bates Motel either.
It’s a little farther from NYC than I expected. Not that it pained us too much to drive 8 miles to park the car (and split the $ 20 lot fee) then catch a subway into the city. It was that or pay 4 times as much to have a hotel room in Manhattan.
The hotels face is a little deceiving because it’s nicer on the outside than the inside.
The carpet was kinda squishy, but I just kept my flip flops on. My brother is convinced our room was haunted, but I just think he was hearing people walk down the hall outside our room (or walk around in the room next to us) because the floors creaked very loudly, in the hall and in our room.
Our room was so large that I thought the distance between our 2 beds would keep him from hearing my creaky foot steps as I made my way to the bathroom during the night, but he obviously has bionic hearing, because he would awake to every little noise, regardless of the fact that he was wearing earplugs.
The complimentary breakfast bar was pretty good, but then, I’m a sucker for any free food.
It all comes down to this; you get what you pay for. This room was dirt cheap compared to everything else we looked at, so I’m not complaining. In fact, we were soo happy that our room did not have bed bugs (there was a break out in nice hotels in the city) that I’m giving it an extra star — just for that!

I got a big ass room on a Saturday night for 70 bucks. ‘Nuff said.

I have to say. Its not to shaby! there breakfast is a nice bonus. also they have an Airport shuttle. The area is ok but its a lot worse closer the the airport. The cost for the place is very cheap average like 60 bucks.
