Americana Motel — Attraction in Woodbridge Township

Stopped at this location just to get off the road for a few hours. Even for a quick fix this place was very sleazy and creepy as soon as I pulled in. The "room" was basically a hole in the wall just big enough to fit a king size bed and still have walking space. The bathroom was basically a large closet just big enough to fit a small shower and toilet. The bathroom window was a very small rectangle that allowed for one side of the split pain to be opened. The heater was built into the wall just outside the bathroom with a single numbered knob that is meant to spin and pray that it actually works. Beyond a second, larger window next to the door and covered by blacked out curtains and screened in on the exterior (probably also with holes just like in the bathroom) the only A/C is positioned above the head so that you must use the only chair you are provided with to operate it and, again, pray that it works. Two night stands rest at either side of the head of the bed equipped with a single drawer each. Aside from this there exists only a countertop, with built in sink, wide enough to allow space for a tiny TV set most likely recovered from the 80s. All that is left is a decently sized mirror equipped with the only lights in the entire space just above it. Surprised I did not find any bed bugs or roaches, but I'm sure they exist somewhere within the extremely...

First, I have no affiliation with Americana. Reviews are unduly harsh. I needed a place just to crash and sleep. I paid maybe $80.00 and I got the room I expected. Everything in my room was clean, air conditioning worked great (it was around 95F). I had enough towels and soap. Fridge and microwave and a Wawa right next door. The woman who checked me in was actually very patient with me, as I have bad tinnitus and often have trouble hearing, so I had to ask her to repeat almost everything and I got no attitude. I felt safe and secure in my room - and I've stayed at places in far more dangerous areas in the past (for those claiming to feel unsafe.) If you want a mint on your pillow in the morning, continental breakfast, etc., why are you searching for around $70.00? I loved my stay there, was easy to get into their property and easy to get out, even being on busy Rt1. As a matter of fact, Americana played a big role in allowing me to have a wonderful weekend attending a concert that in the absence of the motel, I couldn't...

Went to check in with a positive attitude and hopes that all the bad reviews about the lady at the counter where exaggerated but I was very wrong.. I didn’t even get to make it in the room!! My girl and I dropped off by a friend at 12 am And she didn’t want to let us stay at first because she was afraid that our ride was going to stay with us and assumed I was a lair when I told her it was just us 2. After providing her with both our days she came up with the genius excuse that the policy is 21 AND over but it was all of sudden OVER 21 and she said we had to be 22. We are both 21 and will gladly take our business across the street and spend the extra money. It was probably for the best as I’m sure we would’ve turned around by the time we got into the room.. I explained to the lady that I know understood why they have all the bad ratings and I see that they were all very well and justified. No paying customer should be treated that way. Gladly the classier establishments in the area didn’t...
