Rodeway Inn Meadowlands is a basic, low-price motel with a great location close to NYC, stadiums, shopping, and major highways. The building is dingy, old, and in clear need of a remodel, with worn carpets, damaged furniture, and holes in walls. Many rooms are described as dark and outdated. A significant issue is strong, unpleasant smells in the check-in area, hallways, and rooms, often of cigarettes or weed. There are also reports of cockroaches. The motel has no frills like breakfast, a fitness room, or a shared office. However, rooms are generally kept clean and are spacious. It is considered a place to sleep in a safe area without a high price. The major drawback is constant noise from the adjacent highway, which disrupts sleep, especially in rooms facing the road. The staff is noted as friendly. Overall, it is a definition of a cheap, no-frills motel for those prioritizing location and price over comfort and quiet, but many guests strongly do not recommend it due to the poor condition and smells.
This place looked like it was closed and under construction, which they did not disclose on their website. Be very careful before you book
