캔들우드 스위트 뉴어크 사우스 - 유니버시티 에어리아

I'll start by saying I got a good deal on an apartment-like room here, and the front desk staff were nice... when they were finally able to help me. However, checking in took just about half an hour (when I was already sleep deprived and trying to get some rest!) because the hotel only staffed the front desk with one person on a Saturday afternoon. Ridiculous. Surely a hotel that wants to provide decent service will have enough staff on shift for the busiest time of the week? I'll also note that the hair dryer was broken, clearly an upkeep issue (and upkeep issues can be avoided with--wait for it--enough staff!). If the hotel doesn't want to make guests feel like they're merely cash cows, the number one thing to do is provide decent service. The location feels a touch remote though there are conveniece stores and an American Chinese restaurant with friendly owners in walking distance.
