If you're re traveling with kids, book here.

1. 20 min away from six flags great adventure
2. Free breakfast
3. Free parking
If those top 3 is not good enough for you, then I don't know what is.
Let's start with booking, super easy and reasonably priced. Check in was also easy and the front desk staff were friendly. For those who are not aware, you can use your app to unlock your room. So no worries if you forget your keys.
We booked a two queen size bed room. Comes with a standard 42 inch tv with decent quality screen. A desk, a mini fridge, a table, basket style drawers, closet, and 2 ottoman. Every room has a window.
The window view was just the parking lot. Honestly the view was my least worries and only cared if we're getting some sun. I wake better with natural lighting.
The bathroom was very spacious. Comes with basic complimentary shampoo, lotion, shower gel, conditioner, bar soup and make up remover wipes. Towels are provided. EVerything was fully stocked and cleaned in my room.
If you forget something basic, you may purchase deodorant and other essentials at the hotel's mini store located next to the front desk.
The beds are springy for me because I'm a side sleep. If you rest on your belly or back...it may or may not be as comfortable. The kids loved it. Slept throughout the night peacefully.
Complimentary Breakfast
It's different every morning. However it still serves eggs, a meat and carbs.
-conventional breakfast: cereal, bagels, toast, muffins, boiled egg, apples, bananas, oranges, Greek yogurt
- Hot plate: scrambled eggs, a meat(pork sausage, sliced sausages, sausage links), carb/starched (stuffed fruit pancakes/crepes, variety of potatoes ), waffle station

Huge plus, you can take the food to the room. So helpful because seating gets full.

I would definitely come back here. It's really quiet, affordable and 20min away from six flags. The highway was not a problem. You barely see it or hear anything. Customer service was on point.
I do have one suggestion, the staff to use some professional language such as "thank you, excuse me" and greetings "good morning or have a nice evening". There's been some cases I wish people were well mannered. For instance like saying" good morning ms. I'm collecting some items and can you step to the side for just a minute. Thank you." Instead, she just said excuse and directed where to stand...umm ok, that was confusing and annoying. Eh, it's eh.
