I stayed in this hotel last week for first time. They don't iron bad sheets. Iron doesn't work cheapest motels are cleaner. When I was staying there 2 days there wasn't water to even wash your hands.

Positives: There was noting to like in this hotel.

Negatives: This hotel was lowest quality hotel I ever stayed.

This hotel's facilities were adequate for the price paid. It provides you with all the basic amenities, and the rooms are clean. The lobby needs updating - it has tiling and wood paneling from the 1970's, so your initial impression might be quite poor. Perhaps it was just our bad luck on the night we stayed there, but the clientele of this establishment leaves much to be desired. There was a loud party across the hall from us until about midnight one night and there was a separate party in the room next door that lasted until 5:30 am, complete with loud laughter and repeated door slamming. When our direct requests to the guests to quiet down were ignored, we called the front desk for help. We had to call at least 4 times, and each time the front desk clerk merely called the room and asked them to quiet down. This was obviously not working, because the noise continued. I felt that, after our second call, something else should have been done, such as moving them to a different room or even calling the police if necessary.

Positives: The rooms themselves were clean and well maintained.

Negatives: Loud, obnoxious guests with staff doing very little about it despite repeated requests by us.

Good place to stay in the Hackensack-Teaneck area.

Positives: Quiet, comfortable, convenient, reasonable price.

Negatives: No oranges at breakfast.

This hotel was a miserable experience for the star rating. Shady characters loitering in the halls drinking both days I returned from my day's business was unpleasant and unsettling. The continental breakfast might as well have been not offered at all. Even the "to go" coffee cups were a joke.

Positives: The doors locked.

Negatives: Everything else.

The hotel was perfect for my needs except I clean houses for a living and so am sensitive to areas that need more attention. The TV needs additional channel offerings also. But, this hotel was very nice in all other areas.

Positives: I liked the fact that I got one of the deluxe rooms.

Negatives: The tub was dirty and needed a good scrubbing.

For our family, the Best Western proved to be a good choice. It is located close to Rt. 4, a major travel artery. We could easily zip from the hotel to our family and the hotel and our friends. The staff at the desk were friendly and helpful.

Positives: The hotel is close to Rt.4 and to many places to eat.

Negatives: We could hear the television or music from the room next door.

This Best Western was a pretty nice hotel. However, the night when I came in, I had some food I wanted to have heat up. I heard that the personnel who would bring it up is gone for the day. That was okay--we did arrive after hours", per se'. But, in the morning, I was looking forward to drinking some hot tea. There was a sign that--I cannot remember exactly what it said--but, to paraphrase, hot drinks (tea, coffee, etc) were not available since the staff did not arrive yet. That, for the star-rating that it had, I did not appreciate at all. Also, my Dad thought he forgot his medicine there. I called one evening--was told that housekeeping is not there to please phone back in the morning. I phoned the next day and gave them my name and phone number--no return call. I did not think that was good customer service."

Positives: I liked the location, it was quiet and the staff was helpful.

Negatives: Not having hot drinks in the morning--the staff was not there yet (or something like that), also, they did not return my call
