Fairfield Inn by Marriott East Rutherford Meadowlands

Breakfast was tasty IF one could find a seat. Coffee and orange juice was very good, until it ran out. Staff did not restock quickly.

Room smelled awful! It was as if someone used incense to try to hide mold and cigarette odor. Air conditioning did not work. Room was so humid that clothes dry when hung up became wet! Carpet was so dirty it soiled my white socks. Paid for shuttle at hotel to take us to Meadowlands. Shuttle was not in the lot where driver said to meet for return trip. We called the hotel 3 times. Each call was picked up then disconnected without so much as a salutation. Three hours after our event ended, we FINALLY got a cab to return to hotel. Waiting in a vacant lot in Jersey did not feel safe! When asked about our stay while checking out, checkout lady was nice; she gave us bottles of water and sincere apologies for our trouble. However, as we left desk we heard a female worker with an accent crack wise about "the phones were blowing up last night so I just hung up on all of them".
