I feel the rooms were very clean, and the staff working here have been really accomodating to bringing me things when needed. They brought my bags up to the room. I feel everything was well kept. I liked the atmosphere to the place. Pricing was reasonable.

(Holiday Inn Express & Suites Woodbridge by IHG 874 Route 1…read moreNorth, Avenel, New Jersey, USA) --------------------------------------------------------------------- One of the worst hotel experiences my family has ever faced. I booked Holiday Inn Express through Expedia for October 10-12, 2026, and received a confirmed reservation. After travelling approximately 10 hours from Toronto, Canada by road, with my wife and two children, I arrived to discover that the hotel had cancelled our reservation without notifying us. The front desk staff showed me that Hotel Manager Aurymar had cancelled our booking at approximately 7:30 AM on our scheduled check-in date. I also have evidence that room prices increased after my original booking, raising serious concerns about how confirmed reservations are handled. My family, including two children who became sick during the long journey, was left waiting in the hotel lobby for approximately three hours while we struggled to find alternative accommodation. I am extremely disappointed by this treatment. I am going to file a formal complaint with the New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs and explore legal action. My advice to future guests: Be extremely cautious. Even a confirmed reservation did not protect my family from this experience.

Delta Hotels Woodbridge is a good hotel and is the best around this area, but benefits from no…read moresolid competition. It's probably the largest hotel in the area and was hosting a film industry convention while I was there. I have stayed at this hotel a few times before and my rating improved slightly this time, especially given they gave me a courtesy upgrade owing to a shortage of King bed rooms which I reserved, but there are several issues that keep the rating nearly the same. 1. Reservations are still executed centrally via Marriott and the wait time could be a moment, but was easier to navigate through the prompts this time. Staff are friendly and efficient at the front desk when one checks in and out. 2. The hotel lacks amenities of a hotel this size. It does have a pool, but has no shop evident where one could buy a charger, toothbrush or aspirin if one forgot to bring the like. 3. The upgraded King Suite had no microwave or refrigerator. The dark and smooth tile on the bathroom floor can become dangerously slippery if the shower leaks water running across that floor and the towel laid down on the floor does not catch all the runoff. You may not see the water runoff on the dark tile and could lose your footing. Be careful. The toilet paper could benefit from better placement, making it less awkward to reach. You will hunt around for light switches on the walls and next to your bed the first time entering the dark room. The televisions and room a/c unit worked well, but the a/c heating unit was a bit noisy. 4. At well over two hundred dollars a night for a King room, there is no breakfast voucher for the cafe on the ground level to the right of the entrance. The cafe has a very basic menu and they serve your order as if it's to go in a bag, with boxes inside. If you specify that you are eating in your room, that would be fine. However, it's wasteful of paper and cardboard when a plate would suffice and be easier from which to eat. As a captive audience, it's the only thing immediately within reach. A few scrambled eggs, bacon, home fries, twin pancakes and small coffee is nineteen bucks. Not bad, but could and would be better if competitive options were immediately available. This hotel benefits from a lack of real competition in the immediate area. The price points are a bit high for what you get and that is a consequence of a lack of real competition in the area, inflation notwithstanding. The friendly and respectful staff deserve your attention. The people who work here from the front desk to housekeeping have been great each time. 3.2 stars

The lobby is spacious, the staff is nice-ish, & the rooms are good-ish. But then you start to notice the details ... like: - The painters tape on the peeling ceiling. - The pillows with the consistency of almost-dry cement. - The dangerously large potholes in the parking lot. - The large security deposit required that didn't correlate with the quality of the hotel. & finally, the biggest offense of all: - The super pungent, overwhelming, inexplicable smell of sewage emanating from all drains in the bathroom. Most other lodging options in the area are either really expensive or really dodgy. This hotel is one of the only options that's sorta somewhere in the middle. I probably would not stay here again.

There are absolutely unprofessional! I called there to speak to a guest. The receptionist hung up…read moreon me saying this guest is not allowed to have phone calls. That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. Also, nobody there speaks English properly they are all Indian. Which is not a problem. But how do you run a business and not understand what team potential client is saying? I would give this Motel a zero Star rating. They are all around rude, and unprofessional. Not to mention the fact that as soon as you walk in, the entire establishment overwhelmingly and constantly smells like marijuana..

I dig this motel so much, I gave it a nickname, the "LaMi"…read moreThat being said, I love the LaMi. It's so cozy and home-y feeling..like your worn out slippers or that ratty pair of underwear you have in your drawer. DON'T ACT LIKE YOU DON'T HAVE ONE. There's many options for rooms there..I believe the it goes through the letters A-M. They have doubles, singles, large rooms, smaller rooms, bigger bathrooms, and of course a heart shaped tub room, you know, for those romantic nights. Some bathrooms even have Bath and Body Works shower gel. As this could be considered a "love motel" there are rates for a few hours which is called the short stay, or you can do overnights. Pretty affordable too...I don't think I've ever spent more than 80 buck there, and check in was in the afternoon. Prices can be inconsistent depending who is at the front desk, and that's somewhat annoying. Some rooms will look better than others. I definitely came across ones with no lamp, no remote, some weird mark on the floor, a less than appetizing looking sink...but those things aren't typical. La Mirage amongst other 1&9 spots were extended hosts to many Hurricane Sandy victims, which I like and is very respectable. They could use some definite remodeling for some rooms, but overall, the La Mirage is a solid spot for your sleeping (and etc..ahem) needs. Oh and there's WiFi. The clincher!!

To begin with customer service was great for the few days I stayed. Also big shout out to the house…read morekeeping they really did a great job all around. Moreover got to my room and the room was spotless clean and there was a bag of goodies and a note which was pretty great of them.Room had a little kitchen which was very cute. It also had silverware and some kitchen supplies for you to use and a dishwasher as well. In addition the breakfast was pretty good as well.They had a several kinds of foods to choose from which is pretty great. As well they have a small little gym and a laundry right new to each other though you well need your key to enter. Furthermore I really recommend staying at this hotel you won't regret it.

We were in town for a 2 week work trip and decided to try this place. What a mistake…read more 1) Sleeping is impossible because it is so NOISY! - You are right near major highways with incredible road noise. - Add to it, you are on the flight path of jets landing at the airport. 2) Breakfast is very weak. Extremely limited. Only flavored/sugary creamer for coffee. No 1/2&1/2. Had to go buy some. 3) Guy at check in was terrible. His customer service is so bad, the DMV is jealous. Couldn't understand a word he said. Made it clear my checking in was taking him away from playing on the internet. Wasn't even offered a bottle of water the first night. Had to buy one for $4. 4) Pillows are terrible. Had to go buy one. 5) AC is an old mini-split that just adds to all the noise 6) TV had about 8 channels so ended up having to watch TV on my laptop at night using sling One night here is long. Two weeks is hell on earth.

The only downside was that the overnight receptionist could have been a bit friendlier during check-in, as the welcome felt somewhat impersonal. We really enjoyed spending time in the lounge for drinks, and breakfast both mornings was excellent. A special thank you to our waiter, Ray, who was incredibly welcoming and took wonderful care of our family. He was attentive, friendly, and made sure both we and our kids had a great experience. Overall, we had a pleasant stay and would definitely choose to stay here again if we're back in the area.

The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. We had an issue with our fridge maintenance guy came and replaced it. He's also a mixologist. Our room was very clean and spacious. The ambiance was very eclectic all the furniture was comfy. The Lounge at The Watt had great drinks and bar food was pretty good. We ordered the Bourbon chicken wings and steak and cheese egg roll weren't my favorite but the wings were good. If you go try the French 75. We both slept like babies our bed was very comfortable. I look forward to returning to the Watt. To all my Yelpers let's continue to eat our way through the world #foodie4life.
