Kislak 301Chic Studio in the Heart of Downtown

Location was perfect for Prudential and also easy access to NYC via Penn or Broad. Building and area was very quiet, and relatively safe: felt fine walking alone back to the building after games at the arena (recommend Mulberry/Park, vs Market/Broad). Lots of eating options/cafes nearby, as well at the Newark Art Museum and Historical Society. Toiletries in the bathroom (shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion) were appreciated although didn't smell of anything in particular so may not be to everyone's taste. Needed a refill of lotion and a new lamp, as one was broken and both were done the same day. Heating was great, and wifi was good: generally fine with just a couple of instances of jamming. Washer and dryer were a great help and quick wash cycle was very helpful.

Main issue was with the hot water in the shower, this did run out the first time I washed my hair so it was a cold rinse: host did have a look at this and it did improve but I'm not sure how it would hold up for a couple if both took a shower one after another - I take evening showers so not sure if that was factor. The mattress is very firm, I personally found it too hard and may not be to most people's liking. A couple of things like a few fused bulbs, and it would have been nice to have had drawers for clothes, and a proper dining table - there is a desk with one chair, and a bar area which was fine for me but a few touches might make the place feel more like home. Kitchen utensils were very limited, just a couple of pots and pans so might be limited in what you can do here (but again fine for me). Check in was a bit of a miss - I didn't receive any comms until quite late after I messaged from the airport and even then I was unsure what to do on my arrival: I ended up having to call the host, this meant needing data and Whatsapp, both of which I normally don't have but happened to have because of recent volunteering work. I did apprecaite the personal meet and introduction though. Departure instructions were also sent after I had already left the building so although I did the basic clean up and removed trash, I didn't start the dishwasher for example.

Location was excellent. Property was clean and the host was very helpful

I liked everything.

It was very spacious and clean. The location was great. It was only a short walk of between 3 to 10 minutes for many dining options, shopping and entertainment.

Everything was good

It was a peaceful stay in New Jersey and right next to the Victoria Theater.

It was a nice downtown view. Close to a lot of small businesses able to have a variety of food.
