Hotel is older, but the beds were comfortable and it was clean and friendly, which is more important to weary travelers. At 2 AM, after a 12 hour flight their all night, reasonably priced food concession with milk, fresh fruit, sandwhiches and alcohol in the lobby was a life saver. We also used the restauarant located there and the food and staff were very good.
The only problem was their Shuttle left us off in front of our terminal, but upon return picked us up at a seperate location - the Hotel Shuttle Pick Up Area designated at the Airport. It would be helpful if Wydham would include that in their information for new travelers to EWR.
