Candlewood Suites Secaucus - Meadowlands

Room: Kitchenette well equipped, dish soap, cooking utensils, enough for 2 and for heating light meals (microwave and 2 burner stove), large full sized refrigerator, very hot water in sink for washing, bathroom a good size with enough counter space, large desk for piling shopping stuff or working, big drawers, iron, 3 seats including an arm chair, adequate and accessible power outlets for charging devices. Towels and toiletries: towels were "fluffy" and clean, provided soap, shower gel, hair conditioner and shampoo Proximity to Secaucus Junction (train station to airport or NYC for example): excellent (from hotel, an average of $8 for Lyft/Uber) one way, there is a free shuttle provided by the hotel ONLY ON WEEKDAYS Others: Mini store for essentials, gym (we didn't get to use), screened windows Parking: We didn't use this time but glad to know that there is an option to bring the car next time.

Internet: was very, very slow for us, I couldn't connect well. This is the major drawback for me and the only reason why I rated the facilities still on the high end was because I didn't have to put in a lot of work while at the hotel and I had data on my phone but this would otherwise be a very important factor for me. Shuttle: Expense on the taxis or car rides to the train station would pile up and I would think that the Shuttle should run even on weekdays so if you are staying the weekend, you need to factor in commute time and costs when thinking of hotel savings (train to NYC + Uber/Lyft excluding tip for 2 ways is roughly $25) Linens: Bed was comfortable but the sheets didn't feel like cotton (?), it felt a bit slippery and does not absorb perspiration, for example. No in-room safe (again, becomes important for the traveler) Cleaning only once a week (though we didn't try to ask but maybe they would do on request). Aircon was noisy.

The roo was very good

The publique transport is so far from hotel
