Best Western The Inn at Ramsey

Terrible hotel. Staff was rude and the entire place was rundown and smelled of marijuana. My husband asked a staff member about ice machine and was told, "None of them work". At check out he told the front desk clerk about being a Police officer and that he wanted it documented that he was subjected to inhaling marijuana smoke. The front desk clerk said he was getting off work and the next guy could "handle " your complaint. Unacceptable! If you want to be high and treated rudely ,this is your place . Otherwise, keep driving.

I enjoyed my stay at best western , the property was well kept , the rooms were spic and span and the staff was very courteous , it was the best value for money spent and to relax their restaurant had a serene and pleasant atmosphere. So once you park your car you dont have to take it out again , just like home.

Great hospitality, had a wonderful experience staying there , staff was friendly. Best hotel in the area and will be going there again . Manager was friendly and upon request they respond very quickly

Worst customer service ever and they hotel staff kept trying to come into my room even though the "do not disturb" sign was on my door. They are extremely rude and unhelpful. DO NOT STAY HERE. There are much better places with better prices nearby.

Staff was courteous, room service cleaning was very good, and the guys at the front desk were extremely helpful. I'm a medical student who was staying there during a rotation, and I would highly recommend this place to any other medical students who need somewhere to stay while rotating in places like Hackensack!

The room had horrible, gross, seriously stain sheets when I walked into the room after checking in. See attached pictures. I requested clean sheets and made the bed myself. Then I made sure I didn't have housekeeping the entire stay so I wouldn't wind up with more gross disgusting stained sheets. Also the walls are so thin I could literally hear people clearly talking in the room next to me. Also the door to the stairs does not close slowly as it should, and instead just slams closed shaking the entire floor every time someone goes in and out the door to the stairs. It is a two story hotel without an elevator, so that was fun carrying my 50lb. suitcase up and down the stairs. Definitely a 1 Star level hotel.

When you go to place away from your home , where you stay should not be an issue to consider , Rather it should be like opening the door of your own room at your house , where you focus on the main issues rather than worry about the condition of room , one such place is Best western the inn at Ramsey, I stayed there on a business trip and the condition, functioning of the rooms was not concerning at any given point of time . as everything was spic and span , functioning well so that I can focus on my business.rather than run to the front desk with complaints.

Overall, was a good place to stay and rest after spending the entire day in the city. Rooms were much more spacious and beds were comfortable; so quality was better than the hotels rooms we went to last time we went to the city.

Excellent hotel. Loved the service. Clean and neat rooms. Very hygienic and yummy breakfast food. Daily room service. Thanks to front desk and team. Overall 5 star rating. Wish to stay with you guys again.

First room they placed me in wasn't cleaned at all, next room had mold all over the walls, and last room the floor was badly warped. When I brought the mold issue up to house keeping and front desk they just shrugged it off and said let's get you a different room. These rooms should not be like this

Had a weird experience staying at this hotel for one night. The room we were in had a definite slant to the floor. Everything was at a noticeable tilt, including the bed. Walking through the 1st floor hallways, you could see how uneven and tilted the floors were. The free breakfast was not really worth it as the food was not the best. There are several other hotels in the area that might cost a little more, but would be worth the extra cost. I will be staying at one of them, the next time I am in the area.

This one I Red Flag. The room had seen better days. It was smelly and musty as soon as you walked in. But besides that. The Breakfast room is a disaster with way too many people and the woman who worked there chased my wife from my table because she wasn't eating. “We have a lot of people waiting and you can not sit.” She had a plate of chewy scrambled eggs in front of her which she couldn't eat and was waiting for me. I (we) had never experienced such rudeness. Others were also complaining about this woman and her mouth. NEVER would I return to such an establishment which allows its guests to be treated this way. SHAME ON YOU.

Hotel was clean, secure, but a little dated. Floor was super uneven, so be careful. Beds were hard, but I slept well. Can hear people walking upstairs, so request top floor. Was definitely the best value/budget friendly for a one night stay in the area.

The location of this hotel is a plus because it has a train station that goes to new york city and also there are so many places to shop, dine around this hotel. They also have a restaurent next door which is a good thing.

The second floor of the hotel is sloped so bad and has humps it made me think I had been drinking. I have concers about fire doors that stick, open the wrong way blocking staircases. The floor in the room was so bad that when I got out of bed I felt like I was going to tip over into the wall. But the place was clean and Staff friendly.

This was one of the dirtiest hotels I have stayed in and the worst Best Western I have ever stayed at. The room smelled and had to be switched, the floors were uneven and the floor in the room was wet.

The staff were super sweet; it was the hotel itself. The reservation was booked weeks in advance but we didn't get that initial room til our 3rd day. The ceiling was leaking water and the door leading outside was right beside our room was never locked / accessible without a key. The wind would slam the door shut and would scare us awake. The vending machine had expired food and the gym was a little dirty too.

No respect and interest toward customers services. Part of the building is sinking it is like coming in to a tunnel and room not level. Those room should not be available for anyone if you have respect for anyone. DO YOUR SELF A FAVOR DON'T GO THEIRE.

On my travels I have stayed at many hotels chains but this last stay at Best Western has changed my thinking and will be staying at Best Western whenever possible from now on it is clean, staff very courteous and helpful I'll be back

The hotel are right off the Highway NJ17. It can not be more easy. There was no noise from highway We used it when we are on the way to Newark airport. It took an hour to go to the airport. Big rooms and hot breakfast. Nice coffee in the lobby. We will use it again, when arriving and leavin Newark airport

My husband and I were satisfied in all aspects of our one night stay for the weekend. The room and hotel were quiet, the complimentary breakfast was okay and the location was in close proximity to the family event we were attending and the store in which we wanted to shop. I would recommend this hotel and return again.

We stayed for one night on the way to another state. We have stayed here before and did not regret. It was as good as Best Western gets but the place was clean, breakfast was good, coffee hot and staff very friendly. We would stay here again.

Good location. Great staff. Nice restaurant on location. I would definitely stay in this fine , clean place again. 200characters for a review is a little ridiculous though. So , if that continues, I won't review again.

A one-night stay for me, en route to upstate NY. The hotel has a unique interior, is thankfully quiet and well-organized. Room was quiet, clean and up to par, as was bathroom. If you have a room facing Highway 17, you will hear traffic going by at all hours, but some people might actually find that soothing. It's not at all an obtrusive sound, but you will hear it. I slept very well, bed very soft and comfortable. TV/internet is more than adequate. Lots of outlets near beds for phones or laptop in bed. A very adequate hotel and affordable price.

Very happy with the staff and manager. Check in was quick and easy, location was perfect, room was easily accessible, check out even easier. I will definitely used best western again for my business. Thank you very much.

I recently stayed at this BW for one night on a Saturday evening. I arrived around 10:30 pm and was quickly checked in. Staff wasn't overly friendly but was efficient. I was given room 116, which is a king with jetted tub, 1/2 way down the hall, where floor gets a bit sloped. My room did have some slants in the floor but it wasn't a big issue. An issue however was the carpet felt wet/damp from previous guests. I had some issues with the room, including the numbers not working properly on microwave, and refrigerator and AC were off upon arrival, so took some time for room and fridge to cool down. The jetted tub was nice and relatively quiet but some of the jets seemed broken. Water pressure was great and otherwise bathroom was fine, although toilet was a bit small, which was odd. The rest of the room was fine, bed was comfortable, and everything worked. I have stayed for years usually once annually when passing through, and was glad to see breakfast open again, but it closes WAY to early at 9am, should be 10 especially on a weekend morning, and since check out is as late as noon. The woman working the breakfast was nice at times, but intimidating at others, and I felt stared down when using waffle machine. The eggs were gross, the sausage was horrifically bad, and tater tots for breakfast was unusual. Room is a bit cramped too and choices could be better. Overall, I would stay again, as room is comfortable, I like jetted tubs, and I like the renovated design of rooms! Despite plenty of other guests it was pretty quiet! Minimal road noise from my room too.

Room smell like mold. Breakfast is horrible. Saussage was dry, waffle maker was working properly and the bagel felt like sand in my mouth. Go to super 8 instead and save 75$ and go to McDonald for the breakfast...

Did not feel safe. Sloped slanted floors throughout were very obvious and concerning. I wonder about the structural integrity of the building! We rolled a bottle on the floor and it just continued downhill. When asked about the security door I was told it needed to be fixed. It would not even stay closed let alone locked as it was supposed to be. Breakfast was the poorest I have had at a hotel. Plastic mattress cover.. sheets stained. Just not a nice room. Cutting corners. Dark gloomy room.

Very clean, nice staff I would stay again! The staff was kind and accommodating. Room was spacious, clean and spotless. Parking was free. Location was excellent. The breakfast was pretty good. I enjoyed a lot.

This is the hotel I have never seen I was a fantastic hotel and quite and wonderful rooms,staff is also eco friendly. I will highly recommend this hotel for wonderful stay……all the best best western team.

Upon checking, I asked why I didn't get my complimentary welcoming package and I was told it was because they included a full breakfast. We stayed 2 days and the first day, the tater tots for breakfast was cold and not cooked properly. The sausage links were also cold. As for the drinks, they only had water. The second day, we didn't even attempt to have breakfast there but I did check to see if they had anything to drink besides water and coffee( I don't drink coffee). So much for the free complimentary breakfast, Both days we had to eat at at a local diner. Extremely disappointed in the complimentary welcoming package and the breakfast. The room was clean and we had no problem with the room and the housekeepers were friendly.

I just needed a place to spend the night, and that's what I got. Room was fine; nothing extraordinary but no problems. Wifi worked, shower had plenty of hot water and good water pressure, breakfast typical for this level hotel. No one at the front desk when I was checking out.

Hotel was clean and service was great! Our room had a stale odor but once the ac was turned on it went away, couldn't turn the ac off due to the odor.. someone's kid scribbled on the wall with crayon, seems like a coat of pair would have e covered it but it was overlooked. Bathroom was clean, walk in showers are my personal enemy especially for a woman needing to shave their legs as there was no ledge to prop a foot on… Bed was ok a few spring pokes here and there but tolerable. Direct tv in room but no smart tv for Netflix. We were late to the complimentary breakfast but the selection was comparable ti other chains. Overall a great stay for the price.

I had a wonderful stay, the staff was attentive and friendly without being intrusive. The hotel restaurant had Karaoke which was the perfect way to end the day, lively and relaxed. Location was ideal as I was traveling from NY to Baltimore.

The breakfast room was very hot and humid. My room 111 the floor is not level and it's noticable. There was a cobweb on the ceiling and the faucets in the shower were pulling from wall. Stay somewhere else

I have to start out with saying how welcoming and friendly the Desk attendance and staff is!! All with huge friendly smiles and welcoming conversations. Stayed 2 nights, the bathtub with the jets was amazing!!! 2nd night was a regular room, both extremely comfortable, clean, quiet considering it's on the highway. The breakfast was the perfect touch for a relaxing 2 day getaway! We recommend to everyone and will definitely come back!!! Thank You All for a great stay!

An array of issues. Pee stained sheets, uneven floors, broken toilets, stench of weed and cigarettes, ac problems, unclean, terrible breakfast. Our microwave would blow the circuit during every use. I left a night early just to avoid another sleepless night.

This hotel lacks the basic standards for a Best Western Cold welcome for check-in, same for check out Breakfast products of bad quality & some are recycled : coffe is just warmed water coloured Not clean and missing lights everywhere, starting from the corridors until the bedrooms

A great stay which covers all the aspects of a stay at a hotel - spic and span rooms , clean interior and exterior, everything working in the room no issues, courteous staff, scrumptious breakfast, apt location.

We got there late at night after driving all day and got our room key and noticed that the hall floor in the wing with the rooms was uneven. However when we opened the door to our room it got worse! The floor sloped severely down toward one corner. We had to sleep on beds that sloped down hill. When you got out of bed you felt like you were going to stumble downhill because of the slope. I don't know how this building is not condemned. There was big cobwebs on the ceiling as well.

We stay here all the time but the last time we were staying here was horrible. The staff was very rude, one of the staff members even screamed at me 3 times over how I was using the stuff to make breakfast. We woke up the one morning and our fridge was full of ants and we had to throw all the food out. We had to complain multiple times over our noisy neighbor and they moved us to another room after our third complaint. When we called back with these concerns 5 days later the manger told me that my complaint isn't valid anymore because I didn't make the complaint in person to her, even though we called them a few times during the stay with complaints. The manger is very rude and impossible to talk to because she keeps interrupting and screaming.

From the moment we entered our room #140, we should have turned and ran away. The floor sloped from window DOWN to the door as such a degree as to be unsafe. We had a heavy rain and in the morning the carpet was soaked and produced an odor..Apparently the collapse of the floor causes the rain to leak into room. We found this uneven floor problem in the hallways also. The bath fan did not work, the toilet leaked, The tub did not drain leaving about 6 inches of water in the tub when finished. the phone did not work, the bath fan did not work and to make matters worse the outside grounds where strewn with overturned shopping carts and all manner of garbage. This hotel is so outdated and run down it needs to be demolished and rebuilt.

Great Locations, Friendly Staff, Nice Breakfast, Fast Internet, Nice and Clean room, Quiet, Great Service, Easy Check-inn and Check-out process, We enjoyed our stay, No complain at all, would recommend this hotel on Route 17,

The Inn at Ramsey had a clean and well appointed room for a good value. I was very disappointed, however, with the smell of marijuana in the hallway and seeping into my room. I did not report the problem, but I find it hard to believe that staff was not aware of what was going on. One other thing I should mention, and have seen mentioned by other travelers, I'd that the walls are very thin. You could easily hear conversations and personal physical encounters, which were uncomfortable to hear. Other than that, my stay was comfortable and I will probably stay there again. It was a nice room, very comfortable, conveniently located and a great price point. I did not take advantage of the free breakfast for this stay, but have always found them to be good at other Best Western locations. If I encounter the smoking problem again at the Inn at Ramsey, I will definitely report it. How they handle it will determine any future stays.

Best western at Ramsey provides all round excellence in stay , excellent maintenance of property, nice and courteous staff, great breakfast and convenience of location topped by all round sanitized rooms, lobby and interiors.

Needed a place to crash during the blizzard in January. Appreciated the friendliness of the new management, and not being price gouged during the storm :) Bed was clean and wifi worked, so i had no complaints.

convenient location courteous staff spic and span hotel sanitized and safe hotel , overall this hotel sums it up all the 4 parameters I look at during my stay at a hotel during my stay were all met , I would it sum it up as a perfect stay.

There is a big sign on the door saying masks requires but we saw no masks on any staff. On top of that, the breakfast was a terrible "grab and go" bag that included Doritos (for breakfast!). If you are going to claim that you can't provide your regular breakfast due to covid, all staff should be masked. otherwise the room was fine although the sound proofing was lacking .

Check in was quick but on entering our room found that the toilet flush did not work. Receptionist used a paper clip to help but that was a short term fix so my hubby found a better solution but we still had to pull the cord inside the cistern. The receptionist told us that maintenance would take care of it the next day but when we asked at reception the next morning they said that maintenance would not be in till the following day but they did offer us another room which we accepted. The toilet in the new room worked well but we noticed black marks on the wall by the window which we suspect were dampness. I used alcohol wipes which made some difference but this was a bigger problem which needed attention. Breakfast was a grab and go which we took the first morning but it was not very appealing. The only positive was that the adjacent restaurant was pretty good. This hotel need some major TLC.

Rooms clean, no hot water, refrigerators didn't work or leaked on floor, microwave was not plugged in and had to move it to use, door locks in passage halls to and from room malfunctioned, no one at front desk for check in at 5 pm, had to ask for a breakfast bag. Noe elevators!!! Never stay at Best Western unless you walk through first. LOW END PROPERTY!!!!

Building in bad repair. Damaged walls, floors and ceilings, dimly lit. Faucet in bath not attached and a leaking roof. No maid service. Told to leave dirty towels in hallway and to request clean ones from reception. Hostel or YMCA would be an improvement. Upon asking to be moved twice, told no rooms were available despite nearly empty parking lot. No help offered to move to a different Best Western because it is privately owned. Called Best Western customer service who promptly cancelled our next night's stay and booked us into a nicer BW hotel nearby.

No elevator on 2nd floor - need to open up the breakfast. Need lot of renovations at this property. Towels need to be replaced, they were torn ripped. Need new air conditioner to make it work better. Think twice before you book this motel.

Nice place to rest your weary body before hitting NYC and all there is to be had there. Get some good rest with a good price and comfy setting in New Jersey before you get into the NYC area. Will be stopping back there!

Was supposed to stay 2 nights 6/16 & 6/17/21. Hotel was so bad my son & I left after the first night. Hotel needs an upgrade everywhere. Halls smell, room smelled. No elevator either?? Refrig in room not cold! Bathroom is small & beat up! No service to clean room. Was told cause of “pandemic”! Informed front desk when I checked out early about complaints. He wanted to give me a different room. I told him it would need to be in a different hotel!!

I recently stayed one night at this Best Western, the first night of a 1.5 week trip, and enjoyed my experience overall. I checked in late, around 10pm or so, but the front desk agent checked me in quickly. He wasn't overly friendly or informative but not rude or anything either. My only other staff related issue was maintenance in the morning was working in the room next door, and were quite loud, and were also in the hallway, doing ceiling repairs, and for like a minute, obliviously stood and blocked me from passing, and were rude/unfriendly. Staff did not seem to wear masks. There is a to go breakfast at the front desk, but what was given was a bit odd, a bag of DORITOS, nature valley bar, cheese danish, and yogurt. Better than nothing! Coffee from machine in lobby was good. The property is nicely renovated throughout, with nice tile, fixtures, and a modern aesthetic. My room was also nicely renovated and everything looked new. The room was VERY clean, the king bed was comfortable, but the pillows were oddly small. The bathroom was spacious, large walk in shower, very relaxing and large jetted tub, but the shower had weak water pressure, and temperature kept fluctuating in shower/was difficult to adjust. Also the handle came right off when I first tried to use shower, but I got it back on. Only other issue was traffic noise seemed a bit louder than usual from previous visits, but in morning, I realized my window (first floor) was UNLOCKED, and slightly cracked, which was a bit scary, as anyone from parking lot could have come in, and that should be checked between stay overs! Overall, I would definitely return to this Best Western, as overall the rooms are nice, comfortable, new/renovated, and I slept well on the comfortable mattress. The room was a great value overall!

The motel has free parking. My check in went well. The rooms include free wi-fi and breakfast and have inside entries. My room was well laid out and had everything I needed. I got a good night's sleep and my requested wake call. My check out went quickly.

It was really good experience. Check inn and check out process were fast and reliable. It was good to see that all the staff and employees were following COVID regulation and keep the front desk and room clean and sanitized. Rooms were comfortable and front desk employees were helpful. Because of COVID-19 regulation, they didn't have breakfast but they did have grab and go bag in the morning to provide breakfast and it was good. Overall must recommend place.

I felt safe and impressed at the length the staff went out to keep everything sanitized in the hotel wiping constantly all the surfaces and staying courteous while doing so, signs at every possible location to keep everyone aware to maintain distance and wear masks, spic and span lobby corridors and room . overall great stay.

HOTEL IS IN NEED TO BE RECONSTRUCTED , It has uneven floors in rooms on the second floor . Hotel dose not have an elevator. Rooms have cracks in the walls and celling. This is evidence that the hotels foundation has shifted. Not safe

This was the best experience and affordable . I loved the jacuzzi. Everything was super clean and the staff were all so nice. Complimentary drinks were always fresh. If you're looking for an affordable and nice place to stay, go here!!

The hotel was very reasonably priced and the room was adequate for one night stay. Plenty of electrical plugs and USB plugs for all of my electronics. I try to stay at hotels with breakfast and felt this grab-and-go because of CoVid could have been nicer.

I booked on Booking.com because there was a local power outage and I had to get some work done and clean myself up. I book the room and then 3 hours later they call me to tell me the room is no longer available. Then 45 minutes after that they call me to tell me it is. Once I made a reservation down the highway (more inconvenient for my work.) So I told them I was no longer interested in the room. The person on the phone had a thick accent. I could tell there was going to be more problems ahead so I decided to stick with the hotel that actually honored my booking. This is one of the bottom end of the barrel of Best Westerns. It has seen better days. A lot of shady characters hang out around here. I would not consider this for my family. Better for meeting your mistress type place.

I wish I could give a 3.5 stars to this location. I stayed here recently for a business trip and this was recommended by a local. It was a very easy location to find and was convenient to highways and stores without having to go too far. The parking was sufficient. There was a restaurant, but it did not look open at all - it may have been (Feb 2020), but we weren't there during meal times. The service was fine and rooms were clean and cool. One odd thing was that many of the 2nd floor rooms and hallways were uneven/tilted/crooked. Very odd but not a problem per se. Something to note: there are no elevators and not many outside doorways to get in after hours so if your room is far from the lobby, it may be a long walk if that is uncomfortable for you for any reason. 2nd floor is secured by a key-required door as well so property was definitely safe. We did not eat the complimentary breakfast so I can't speak to how that was. Check-in and check-out was quick and simple and workers were friendly and polite.

Good place to stay if you are doing business in Rockland County or Northern NJ. Dining is available right in the facility at the sports bar and people were friendly. Great burgers and drinks. Best of all you don't have to drive to get back to your room.

As per my other comments to BW, this was one of the worst hotel experiences in my life. I stay in hotels ~20-30 nights per year, and never was subjected to the odd sequence of events of last week. The bottom line is that we had to complain twice about the noise coming from the room next to us. Finally, a staff member came upstairs - but wanted me to stand by the door while he went in. He banged on the door for over 30 minutes with no response. In the end, he went into the room, found the TV turned all the way up, and the occupant face down on the bed passed out drunk. The manager was not on site that night, nor all day the following day. The next night, the same thing happened - complaint, staff entered the room, etc. Still nothing from the manager. Finally we checked out and around mid day the manager called me (Mr Gandi). He apologized, but never offered me any compensation for two nights of frustration. I will not be staying in a BW anytime in the future. Oh, almost forgot - the staff didn't even replace our towels or coffee refils.

This BW is the worst franchise location that we ever stayed at- we haveused BW exclusovely in Europe and ion Wwestern US many many times. The staff was not commotted to making my stay enjoyable. When we repoerted problems with the room- the floor was slanting down away from the door- the foundation is sinking.-The heatoing system thermostat was not o[perating properly- it cycled on and off every 2 minutes and sounded like a jet plane engine when it staarted up. To say the least our night's sleep was awful. This , depsite the beds beingvery confortable. . When we re[orted these problem to the front desk in the morning, the person on duty was not receptive to our complaints and gave us no indication that he cared about our satidfaction with the stay.

Ramsey Best Western is truly a Inn which provides ideal staying option in the area , the staff is helpful and courteous , the room is clean,well maintained and up to date in decor and comfort , the breakfast offers full range tempting . overall and ideally located inn which satisfies the essentials of stay away from home, very satisfied.

What it looks like on the web page does not deplict the hotel. Staff not helpful. Heater in the room went on and off every 5 minutes. It was an awful nights sleep. Staff couldn't or wouldn't do anything

Incompetent staff and general manager. Been there before and it was very nice not any more. Breakfast area is too small we had no place to sit and the buffet was cold and almost empty. The only good thing about the hotel is that it's close to the train

Hotel had a decent room but not much else no real public space to sit around, and a small breakfast area, besides the fact that it can be a longish walk to the rooms where only a midway door operates. Thought this might be similar in quality to other BWs but it is not. It's a 5 out of 10. Service is fine, though.

was a great great night the jetted tub is amazing and it was really clean the room the reason i do not give it 5 star is because the TV screen didn't work the location is also in a very great area near every thing

The room was clean and adequate. Breakfast a plus; eggs, home fries, and sausages. Make your own waffles. Coffee is good enough, so I skipped Starbucks. I was concerned that the hotel is on rout 17 with traffic noise, but the room was quite. I would stay here again.

My Stay At Best Western During The Thanksgiving weekend was excellent. The room was very comfortable.The entire staff THE ENTIRE STAFF was extremely helpful. The breakfast was very good.The cleaning staff very helpful. I would recommend staying there again.

we arrived at our destination very early and needed to get ready for our engagement. the clerk allowed us to check in early which was very much appreciated. we were able to arrive at our relatives house which, was a little way south on route 17 , all clean and rested and for that we all were very grateful

Amazing service, very polite front desk and housekeeper. Comfortable bed and big room with fast WiFi. Great location with lots of restaurant around. Been using this location for a while and i definitely recommend it to others.

After lugging all my luggage up the stairs to the 2nd floor, I was greeted in the low ceiling hallway with a bad stentch, and didn't smell much better inside room, that appeared to be recently remodeled in 1982.... After sitting on the end of the bed for about 10 minutes, contemplating if I can deal with this stanky & uncomfortable room for 5 nights, I started making calls to other local hotels, which I found, but for about $40 more per night... I lugged my bags back down the stairs and went to the office to tell them that I can't stay here.... I told the clerk, who was a nice guy, that I stay at Best Western's all the time with no issues at all, but this place is not like the others.. Long story made short.... I did NOT get a refund by him or the Manager the next day....

For the money and the location it was an OK place. Only use this for sleeping, not the kind of hotel you want to hang out at. I've stayed here a few times and have had some problems. One time, we had no heat. The last time they did not make up the room after the first night. Like I said, the hotel is nothing special but good enough for a night's stay if you just need a place to sleep

Anyone assuming that the management of this hotel is either committed to or capable of making sure you have a quiet place to sleep is making a bad assumption. The location is great, the hotel is in good shape, everything is nice. Just don't expect the people in the next room to let the manager tell them to be quiet after midnight if they aren't in the mood. I packed up and left at 1:00 am quite disgusted.

Good hotel and staff I didn't experience any issues with hotel or staff everyone was nice and nice looking hotel. The restaurant was attached to the hotel and had good food and great happy hour specials

I've been coming to this hotel for 7+ years for business and have always received consistent service, though I've noticed improvements. Not sure if it's the brand itself, or the management here. Since I've been here a while, the manager gives a good deal. My advice to others is to book at least 1-2 weeks ahead of time.

No elevator. The room is not clean. Strong smell. Our room has a door to the next door. Which makes me feel unsafe and I can hear everything they say, I think the next door also can hear me. No privacy at all. At that price, I could have a better choice.

great experience...clean comfortable rooms. Front desk is very helpful especially a young woman named Bhumi. ***** Restaurant was good also. we had stayed here 3 years ago and the hotel was nice...recent renovation and upgrades are terrific, we were especially pleased with the TV and channel selection.

We reserved a non-smoking room for one night. When the bathroom vent was on the room filled with cigarette smell smoke. We complained to the front desk and they said that the hotel was fully booked and we cannot be relocated to a new room. Overall, the hotel is very dated. Location is ok, close to restaurants and shopping. Breakfast was typical hotel breakfast and the breakfast area was dirty and tables were not cleaned in a timely manner. Do not recommend staying here.

This is not the first time...I have stayed at BW, The Inn in Ramsey before (May 2014). I feel very comfortable/safe, traveling by myself (being a female). I have also recommended this location to another friend. It's an ideal location for me, with easy access on/off Rt. 17. The resturant is a great place to invite friends/extended family for a meet and greet.

I was offered free Express check in and it was superb experience, i have been traveling all over the place in NJ but this one was one of my best experience ever. Staff was very friendly and rooms were very clean.

I usually stay at two Best Western locations in Maine, and they have always been amazing. I figured the same would be true in Ramsey, NJ. Well to my surprise the standards are not the same at all locations. The hotel it self was very average. The two main issues I had I had to wait along time to check in. Then the next morning very low water pressure. All in all a very average stay which was surprising based on past stays in Maine.

I am a dedicated BW customer. Many years in NA and Europe. My personal satisfaction score was never below 7+ overall. Always good service for reasonable price. Now this one is a complete failure. Run down 1 star inn converted to pose as BW standard. Walked in in a smelly room a mix of cigarettes and mold. When asked to be moved was told the hotel is booked (which I don't believe a second) The so-called breakfast is another story....

Nice hotel to stay at whether it be for leisure or business. Staff willing to accommodate you in any way possible and make sure the stay goes seamless. Breakfast also had a variety and was fresh so everyone could find something they like. Rooms were also clean and up to par. I had a great stay, would recommend!

Walked into our room that smelled like mold and stale cigarette smoke. Needless to say, we were moved to another room. This one, didnt smell however, the TV remote didn't work, we had to unplug it to shut it off. Temperature in the shower varies with each guest either flushing or washing up at the sink. Hot to cold in a split second. Not one ice machine working. And did we mention the family of spiders under our blankets when we finally got to bed. Housekeeping banging continuously on the door at 9am, until we opened it. We've been traveling for close to 40 years. This place is in the top three worst hotels/motels we've ever stayed. Did we mention when we called to reserve a room, we were told it wasn't necessary, as there were "plenty" of rooms available. Upon arrival, not only was there limited rooms available, the price was raised by $30.00, from the gal we spoke to on the phone, to the gentleman who checked us in an hour later. Do yourself a favor.....Do Not waste your time and money on this dump! Mike K

Staff and management were very nice. I'm not used to, however, feeling like the hotel was listing or leaning. Felt it each time I went to the bathroom or walked down the second floor hall. Was concerned enough that I asked the desk clerk who confirmed that the hotel had a downward slant in areas...

Key cards didn't work every day. Room didn't get cleaned so no clean towels, Front desk told me to go find a do not disturb sign from housekeeping. Dirty clothes from prior guess in our room. Parking lot never cleaned. Used Condoms in the parking lot. Coffee maker didn't work & never replaced when asked.

Room clean Shower parts broken difficult to regulate hot water Electrical outlet in bathroom not working Breakfast area tiny. Very limited seating. Inappropriate for a hotel this size Front desk area tiny. Could only service one customer at a time

Comfortable beds. Best service. Updated rooms.Good location. Lots of restaurant close by. And breakfast is also very nice. All the staff members are very polite and helpful. I always use this hotel while I'm traveling in the area.

Excellent Service including breakfast , room and customer service. Customer Service was really great and helped us to find places to visit near by. Thank You for being such a nice customer service and nice hotel service.

Biggies Restaurant is the best part of staying here. biggies is the best! With that being said Ramsey Best Western has sure came down a notch or two since last year. We left today at noon-time and figured by the time we got back (6pm) our room would be cleaned NOT. Housekeeping did not clean the room even though they knew we skipped the cleaning yesterday. We had to have the front desk bring us towels, trash receptacles . The Ice machine not working properly and was told the second floor had a working ice machine (no elevator) and me a senior citizen. We come up to visit friends once a year and believe me I will never ever stay again at this Best Western. When we get back to Florida I will call the corporate office,

I have stayed here many times. This is one of the best property in North Jersey. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Plenty of healthy options in breakfast. My room was very clean and comfortable. Restaurant next was good too

This place is ok. Staff was pretty friendly. I think there cleaning staff should focus on cleaning the bathroom more maybe spend an extra 15 min to make sure the place is 100%. Breakfast was ok for being part of the package. Women in breakfast room was extremely friendly and helpful.

I stayed at this Best Western recently for the second time, the first being about five years ago, and was pleasantly surprised to see it fully renovated! I really liked the decor and colors in the lobby area and rooms. Check in was quick, I arrived late, almost 11pm, but the agent quickly checked me in, was chatty, and friendly. My room was on the first floor not far from the lobby. Everything in the room was new, clean, and comfortable. Bathroom was nicely done but tile floor in shower could be cleaned better. I loved the jetted tub in the bathroom, which was large, quiet, and felt great! The bed seemed new and was very comfortable but pillows were odd, some square shaped, instead of a regular pillow shape. Breakfast is in a different, much smaller, and cramped space. The options weren't as plentiful as before and the scrambled eggs were horrible. The breakfast used to be prepared by the restaurant next door I believe and was much higher quality than the low quality I received. No bacon either and the sausage available was disgusting. The front desk agent nicely granted me an extra half hour to check out which was appreciated. The area has plenty of stores nearby. The building was nicely painted and lighted. Overall, I would return, and really liked the renovations to the room! The shower head however in my room, I think it was 108, was coming out of the wall and needs repair. Breakfast was also disappointing but staff were friendly and the room was CLEAN!

The star rating convinced me to try this place- one of the worst hotels I've been in. The hallways are dark and the whole place smells; the most unique odor can be found in my room. I didn't even want to take my suits out for fear they would absorb the smell. I'm also wondering how this place is standing as every hallway, room and surface in the hotel is crooked. I'm aware a building can settle but you literally drop about a foot and then go back up a foot in the hallway. I could roll a quarter from one end of the room to the other. Feels as though you're in a circus house. While everything appeared clean in the room I have a hard time trusting it with this lingering funk throughout the building.

I enjoyed the breakfast food and restaurant. It's nice and quite place. I will be back soon. The area is very popular too. Reception people are so professional. Lobby was nice and I like the lemonade.

Good, clean, comfortable place to stay. Everything close by and good eating in the area. Have stayed at this hotel several times over the past few years and never had any major issues. Pleasant and helpful employees. Wish the Breakfast was a little better.. Same thing 2 days in a row. No AC in the breakfast area(Very warm). Food was good as were the choices

Best western is a gem located at perfect location , the staff was polite , courteous and earnest in their approach to keep me informed, was professional in making my stay comfortable , the rooms decor was just perfect and elite and to top it all the morning breakfast was the cherry on top , without a doubt I am not wasting my time in trying to find any other hotel , perfect and satisfactory stay at best western Ramsey

Close to the train station. Very friendly and clean. Good food. Ample parking. The rooms were big and beds comfortable. No outside noise. Plenty shopping near the hotel. Not far from the main autoroute so easy to get to (don't have to get in the N.Y. Approach traffic).

If your staying in the Ramsey/Mahwah, NJ area, please consider staying at The Best Western. This location is great and it is extremely clean. The staff is really friendly and caters to all your needs. They do a fabulous job in making you happy!!!

Booked the hotel online, searched for pet friendly hotel, called to double check with the hotel, they are not pet friendly at all, person on the phone was very unfriendly, had to cancel and lost one night fee. Stayed a year ago in Best Western in Kentucky and loved it, were pet friendly, that is why wanted to book with them this time as well

The best hotel there is in the whole area. Great customer service, breakfast, updated and big rooms and comfortable bed high speed internet. Lots of place to eat around. What else do you need. Will recommend this hotel for sure.

This hotel was neat, clean and comfortable. The location was perfect for us. The restaurant that was attached to the hotel was an added bonus... not only was the food great but all of the staff in both the hotel and restaurant were amazing! Beds were very comfortable! Great value for the price!

In one word, it's Remarkable. Everytime I'm in town, I always choose this because it's easy option. Always provide good service. Front desk staff as well as housekeepers are friendly as always. Very comfortable beds and breakfast is amazing. It's best option there is in the town. Always pleasant experience. You won't regret it.

New renovated Best Western on Route 17, Hot breakfast includes so many varieties such as Bacon, Scrambled eggs, Sausage, variety of waffle mix, Room looks fresh, every thing looks new, looks like they remodeled recently. Experienced Professional and helping nature of Staff. Lobby looks impressive

I booked a room with 2 queen size beds for 2 nights. What we received were 2 double beds. When I inquired at the front desk why the beds weren't queens, I was advised that they consider double beds as queen beds. Obviously there is a difference. The room was very clean, complimentary breakfast was excellent with hot and cold items and juices.

The hotel is located on Route 17 so don't expect a quiet stay. Rt 17 is busy and has truck traffic. Bring ear plugs. We do acknowledge this is beyond the control of Best Western. We stayed in room 214 and entered through Door 2. Door 2 doesn't lock. Anyone could have come up to our room. This didn't make us feel particularly safe. I reported this to the front desk and they were congenial and said it would be fixed. However, this fix didn't happen during our stay. Walking down the second floor hallway is a bit like walking through a fun house. The floor is extremely unlevel and you can touch the ceiling. The room was clean and renovated but there were reminders of a hotel from an older past, like the bathroom door. The breakfast was good, eggs, sausage, DIY waffles, yogurt, pastries, cereal and more. Would we stay again? Not likely.

Nice location, courteous staff, excellent breakfast, renovated rooms everything was perfect good hotelall essentials of a perfect stay were there at the best western inn at ramsey , the staff went above and beyond to answer all my questions . perfect stay.

Clean room , helpful staff and fresh breakfast. It was very cold the day we checked in. Staff were extremely helpful when my car battery died. Room were very clean. Good location and good hotel experience.

Great location, right on Route 17. No elevator but only 2 floors so not a huge deal. Room was updated and clean. Felt secure- needed to use key card to get in multiple doors. Here's the strange part...the building has slanted/sloped floors. In fact, so bad that I felt like I was climbing uphill when I'd walk toward my window and could easily roll down hill going toward the door. It was absolutelt bizarre! I cant imagine this is a structurally sound building lol

Very agreable hotel! Good services! Personnel very disponible ans friendly! Hotel clean and confortable! Position good! Breakfast good and variable! 20 minutes from Outlett Woodbury! 45 minutes to Manhattan!

Stayed here for 4 nights while on a business. Room was cleaned everyday when I came back from meetings. Staff was friendly and professional. Breakfast buffet was great. Biggies restaurant was nice. WiFi was real quick. Will return during next business trip.

We stayed 4 nights while visiting family around Thanksgiving time, and enjoyed our stay. We used to live nearby, so we know where everything is. Although this hotel is located on busy Route 17, we couldn't hear the highway from our room. The location was very good, as were the nightly rates. The room was of a nice size, was clean, and the beds comfortable. I only have 2 complaints - first, they don't change the breakfast buffet at all, so after 4 days you really want something different. The other compliant is about the hallway, and part of the floor by the door. It isn't level. I'd hate to try to walk down the hallway with a few drinks in me, as I'm sure I'd fall. I'd love to putt a golf ball down the hallway, as there is a serious break to the left! But it wasn't a deal breaker, and it only seems to be in a small part of the 1st floor. Otherwise, it is a nice affordable hotel, and the staff are very friendly!

Strange hotel but convenient. Many of the rooms are on a slant... the bed actually tilts downward. My room did not have a working phone. It was clean. Walls are paper thin, I could hear my neighbors all night. There are other choices in the area... take one!

I have stayed here many times over the past three years and the hotel has gotten better each time. They've upgraded the rooms and general decor, and the staff is always very pleasant and accommodating.

Stayed in this hotel in October 2018. Booked the hotel through phone call. Hotel is located near major highways, close to NY City. Staff is very friendly, make every efforts to make stay comfortable starting from check in to express check out. Room was very clean and bed mattress was excellent. Hot and fresh breakfast was available, the attendant had smile of the face. I would recommend anyone to stay at this hotel, either for business or leisure trip to this area.

We have stayed here several times over the past 15 years. The Inn has been recently renovated all to the better. New breakfast area is much better. Biggies Restaurant adjoining the Inn is also good for good pub fare (great Manhattan Clam chowder). Our room was in the 200s in the back (recommend b/c the front rooms get highway noise). Our room heater gave off horrendous sounds, and after very quickly coming to try to fix, when that didn't work, they quickly moved us to another room. (fortunately one next door was available.

As i visited above hotel, i experienced very nice to stay at hotel, i will definitely visit again overall staff and management are very friendly and i like bareakfast and Bar , internet is also very fast. Hotel is very clean and price is also resonable

My Asian-born wife and I were touring USA and we only needed a place to sleep, shower, and eat breakfast; but we also wanted some place nice that would let us feel like we were on vacation in a “foreign” country, which for my wife who had never been to America, it was! Sadly, this motel did not quite fit the bill. To be sure, the room was clean and the bed comfortable; the staff was friendly and helpful; and breakfast was very good, BUT…. The hotel/motel was definitely not modern; NO ELEVATOR to the second floor which we were on; the paint was peeling in some places; and it just felt worn out, tired! It was adequate/alright, but for the money, we've had better!

Recently stayed one night in king size room. Floors are slanted throughout the building including hallways and my room. Bathroom cramped for space. Breakfast was better than most other similar type of this hotel. One word of caution though to couples- the walls are paper thin and if u are in the mood to play please turn up the tv volume. I heard more than I wanted to that morning.

Helpful and friendly check in staff. Room was fairly clean and the bed very comfortable. AC was very noisy and you could hear a lot of noise in other rooms. Breakfast was basic but quite acceptable. Would be happy to stay here again if in this area.

Location is right on route 17 with ample parking. The staff is present and eager to please. The rooms are clean, well lit, with a quiet a/c unit. There is a small fitness room with almost new treadmill, eliptical and stationery bike although the TV monitor did not have the same channels as the room TVs. Breakfast provided usual choices. The hallway carpets are dated but clean as would any hotel in this area with this much foot traffic. There is a bar/lounge/restaurant attached to the lobby and there are many department stores, pharmacies, coffee places, eateries along route 17.

Upon entering the hotel the staff was courteous and prompt in locating our reservation and directions to the room were precise we were informed about all the relevant information, The room was nice decor was perfect and location of the essential stuff was well set everything was spic and span just the way we like breakfast was excellent . Didnt have no issues whatsoever with any aspect of hotel stay , Definitely will stay at best western at ramsey NJ again when I come to this area.

Good value for money and good service.staff very welcoming. Breakfast area a little small but breakfast is good and the 2 ladies working in the breakfast area are very helpful and seems to love there job very well.

Had stayed at this facility a few years back when on an extended business trip and has an excellent experience.This time I was on vacation and boy has this place declined. Place is clean, staff is pleasant, Facility exterior and halls have been redone, rooms were dated.Skip the free breakfast. You can do better at the Golden Arches down the street

We recently stayed here for 2 nights on a bus tour. I was pleasantly surprised. Everything was just as you'd expect from a Best Western.. Clean rooms, clean hotel... Our room was very clean and stylish. We had 2 double beds in our room and both were comfy, clean with nice comfy pillows. The bathroom was nice and spacious with nice complimentary shampoos, conditioners, soap and lotions from La Coupe. Water pressure in the shower was perfect too. The complimentary breakfast buffet had : eggs, sausage, potatoes, bread/bagels/English muffins, some danishes and mini muffins, dry cereal, fruit, coffee, juice and a waffle maker. The lady at the breakfast was very friendly. The hotel area was always clean.. There was free wifi! I have nothing to complain about!! Would definitely return here!

Hotel building shows its age - floor in our second-floor bedroom had a definite slope to it, and there is no elevator. Breakfast room was extremely crowded, and food was not re-stocked as it was eaten.

Room and staff were great. Stayed 4 nights. First breakfast was great. Second morning it looked like a bomb went off. Very busy. No clean tables, no food left in chafing dishes, no regular coffee. Third morning was ok. Fourth morning, Monday, had to wait for attendant to refill food (eggs), and other items. Breakfast was not the best experience.

The room was clean and comfortable. The bed provided a good sleep. The satellite TV as a little sketchy because of the weather but otherwise it was a good picture. The lobby can use a little work as it is small and often crowded and the coffee station ends up in disarray, not due to lack of maintenance but the amount of traffic. The breakfast could be better organized as they seemed to use the function room from the attached restaurant for the weekends. The poor, lone attendant could barely keep up with the traffic and the room is not designed to provide buffet service. The other odd this is that the floors on the first floor are slanted. I could roll a golf ball from the wall to the door without pushing it.

I have stayed here in the past and was complaining about a few things other than the breakfast. I refused to come back until changes were made. I finally came back and the changes have been made. There is an upgrade to the hallways and the flooring and the bedroom wall paper which is nice but I thik the color is not delightfull just soso. It would have been better had you asked your customers what coilrs would best suit them and from the list given pick on or 2 colors and patterns. The colors illumnate which is good but it doesn't give a bang to the look. It is an improvement however. You need to work on the exit and entrance doors. The front entrance door is always awkward to open and the exit doors are old fashion surely you can do better to help the enhancement of the hallways by changing the doors and keeping the fire code in tact. The buffet is always the headliner here. The staff working the bufett is always on point and willing to assist. I am going to ask her name if i stay here again. She is about 5'5 latina dark hair heavy accent and was working on july 15 in the am. Very pleasent person and she deserves to be recognized.

We stayed at this Best Western last week End for 3 days and enjoyed it from the clean rooms ,staff and buffet breakfast that was very good . The staff was very friendly all the time ,always asking DO YOU ANY HELP? Never had that in all the places we stayed at .We would stay again .

Had to visit New Jersey to see my mother, we arrived a day early and the hotel made accommodations for us (we were scheduled for a seven day stay). The reason why I gave it a three is because they charged me extra for the last minute change. So I'm tossed between given it a great review or a poor review. They're renovating the hotel so there are dusty hallways and office equipment all over the place. There is no elevator so if your room is on the second floor your trudging your luggage. Not sure if I'd stay there again. We spent a lot of money for six days to not be fully satisfied.

room was neat and clean,A/C worked as expected.Parking was easy and plentiful. Restaurant next door was adequate and convenient front desk helpful Breakfast excellent lobby had ice water and coffee 24 hrs. Little to write as everything was perfect

We usually stay at the Hampton Inn or something equivilant so I was skeptical when booking our reservation. We were very pleased with the cleanliness of the Inn and the staff were friendly and courteous. The restaurant's Happy Hour was great and the breakfast buffet was good too!

I needed a quick stay close to Mahwah for a business meeting. The location was perfect since it was right off the highway 17. I work for a small business that pays up to a certain amount for business trips, so I was able to cover my expenses there. Luckily, I saved up on breakfast, as well, and picked some coffee to go. Otherwise, stay was good and quiet apart from the Memorial day celebrations. Bed was comfy (though I had to ask for more pillows), wifi was fast enough, and service was efficient. Above average stay.

We had a lovely stay in this Best Western. The staff were kind and helpful and the stay was comfortable. This location was close to our family who live in NJ as well as shopping, restaurants, and the train stations.

Stayed here for a family funeral... was berated at checkin by manager/owner? for booking through AAA... told me they would have matched the price... UNPLEASANT! and we are BW club members but couldn't get reward points because we DIDN'T book directly (for a higher rate!) By morning the room reeked of residual stale smoke.. especially in the bathroom! in our non- smoking room... Reported this to front desk when we left... no offer of compensation—- even after replying to the standard BW corporate follow up..... NOT the cheapest choice available.... am REALLY losing confidence in the brand!

I believe the hotel was doing some renovations so parkng was a bit of an issue when returning at 11 pm. The rooms were ok, no small table to eat at in your room and kind of dreary inside the room. The heater was a little loud. The staff was friendly and the continental breakfast was good, lots of choices.

The staff were incredibly professional, polite and willing to assist with any of my questions or if they saw me trying to get my bags into the room. The hotel is going through renovations, but I would not have known if I hadn't seen it and what is completed looks great.

Breakfast was very good, location was great and people were friendly. The new gym has good working equipment and was very convenient. The quality of the room was clean, nice TV, had coffee maker and microwave, etc.

I found this particular Best Western to be a very good hotel the parking lot was a little bit tight but other than that it was a great place to stay. It has an on-site restaurant which also has a bar, you don't have to leave the building. You go down the hall and it connects directly to the lounge. I found the security was very good also. You must have your key if you leave the building. Your room key is required, to get in any of the doors other than the front lobby.

Clean rooms and excellent service. We stayed for 2 night. Staff very helpful. Good breakfast and breakfast service. Bed were comfortable and no noise of high way. They upgraded room at no extra cost..

my overnight getaway at Best Western was very comfortable and relaxing. The hallways and rooms are being up-dated so part of the motel was quite a mess. My room was very clean and comfortable with no noise at all. the breakfast is not bad at all. i would definitely stay again!

I love coming to this Best Western location. In room jacuzzi is always clean and heats up fast. Henesh at the front desk treats me like a friend, and always makes sure to fulfill any special requests. Never had any issues at this hotel. A+ rating

Always clean. Biggies right across the hall, great breakfast. Always need a get away just for the jetted tub and for that you want a clean place. Fan could of been stronger, room was a bit stuffy, but other than that no complaints. Great choices in the vending machines! Microwave and mini fridge. Rainfall shower. Plenty of fancy romantic restraunts close by, even shopping!

Best Western quality and comfort that you expect at an affordable price. This specific hotel has recently been renovated. There are still some outdated parts of the hotel, but the rooms and bathrooms seem to have all been redone and are extremely clean, comfortable and modern. Staff at the front desk were extremely polite, friendly and helpful for check-in and check-out. Definitely recommend.

The hotel seemed to be under construction. Hotel certainly needs an upgrade. There was no elevator in the hotel. The staff were very good. The breakfast was good and the kitchen staff were good. Probably would not stay there again

We stayed here overnight for the holidays. The hotel is easy to find off of 17. It's not walking distance to any restaurants but we had pizza delivered to our room. The bathroom with the jetted tub was a hoot. The room is a throw back to the 80s but its clean.Breakfast was okay.

room is very excellent for a business trip , and bathroom big and clean water pressure excellent , clean service a nd check in and out good , breakfast is good for on the run, very quiet during the night

Upfront I will say that I filed a police report, and moved to another hotel. This Christmas we were looking to stay local to my in-laws, and were looking for a hotel that would take pets, and have at least one meal accessible to us on Christmas Day. I went to check my original choice, to see what the rooms were like and what the restaurant would be serving on Christmas Day. I found that the restaurant would be closed, so I needed a different place to stay. That's when I found a great rate for Best Western Inn at Ramsey, and proceeded to drive across town to secure the room. As I was discussing Stay Logistics with Henish, we discussed the pet fee of $20/night/pet. I was looking for two nights, and I have two dogs... So essentially $80. One of my dog's is 9 pounds, so of course I asked if I could save one of the pet fees. Here's where it gets hinky. Henish looked at me and asked - as he arched his eyebrow and smiled at me... 'what are you going to do for me?' My response was rather startled, but I replied what could you be talking about... I can't do anything inappropriate, right?? I'm a mom I'm a wife what do you mean? And brushed it off as joke as we continue to discuss my being able to just pay $40 instead of 80. It looked like he was going to make that decision for me, and asked if I wanted to see the rooms. I did, and he then asked if i wanted him to show me or someone else. I replied that he could or whomever if he was busy. He said, he would then. We walked down the hallway, and discussed that the first room's phone didn't work. I took a quick look at both and we walked back to the front desk. I asked again about just paying for one pet. He said he wanted to show me another room on the second floor. As we got to the second room, I had my foot in the door, and Henish asked me to remove my foot so that the cameras would not see and hear us talk about the pet fee. I did, he opened his arms up, and asked me for a hug. I was startled and awkwardly did, then backed up to open the door and get out. He told me that I didn't give him a very good hug, and I said something like, it was because I'm married and I'm a mother and why would he want a better hug in the first place. As we walk down the stairs I kept asking if he wanted me to bring him Christmas dinner or some cookies or something for doing this favor for me about the one pet. He shook his head no, that he didn't want anything; but then let me know that he would put me down for one pet but if I was seen and questioned, that he would have to charge me for two. I replied, of course and I would never cuz issue saying that he guaranteed me anything. I may have mistated regarding the timing and the location of his hug request. He may have done that in the hallway between the Lobby and the stairs. Here's the other really awful thing. I responded to him in a way that I used as a means of coping while being molested multiple times as a child into my preteen years. Another person with different instincts could respond very differently. 40 years fell away, and in an instant I was back in a flight can't fight -- mindframe. It took me a day to process, and on Christmas Eve I spoke to corporate offices to provide my feedback. I didn't know if I was going to be able to find another room at another hotel that would accept pets. I have a very difficult situation that I'm going through with my family, and I wanted no mention of this to upset the apple cart so to speak. So when I spoke with the customer service specialist who took my inquiry, I was not even thinking about my self care. I have since spoken to a customer service manager at corporate offices and provided my feedback about sensitivity training for incoming feedback such as mine. I called in 4 times with different information, and the first 2 customer service specialists who helped me were really difficult; and I was actually in hysterics. I did file a police report, the hotel did refund my money through the online booking group that I used, and I did stay somewhere else. Corporate offices will work with the locations management to review this incident. As I was processing this, I realized that as quickly as he asked what he did, and as openly... likely means that he's done this more than one time and is getting away with it. Ironically, when I was speaking about this with another person in the industry/that general location, (and who obviously does not want to go on record)... they stopped me mid-sentence to tell me that they knew who I was talking about and what hotel I was talking about and even what had happened to me. So here's the thing... I'm not providing she said/he said information, I'm stating what happened to me, and what was told to me about Henish. When I called back to report what was going on, I also indicated that i would pay the $80 if I stayed there ( if I couldn't find another hotel for two nights on Christmas Eve and Christmas). Was I wrong to have asked to avoid the extra pet fee? Regardless of that... in no way should I have to experience giving somebody a sexual favor in return for saving any amount of money. I certainly hope that this helps any other Traveler that might come across this situation at this location. I also hope that this helps everyone involved to a better path forward, change whatever they need to, and to live a better life. But I'll tell you what, I won't be staying at the Best Western Inn at Ramsey ever again, and neither will anyone I know.

Everyone from the desk to cleaning staff where really helpful. We got more than our moneys worth. It's a very nice place to stay & located close to town. The rooms are very comfortable & staff are very friendly and helpful.

celebrating my birthday with my wife, away from the kids. Perfectly adequate bed, functional, clean jetted tub, and attached restaurant made for a perfectly self contained weekend getaway. Will highly consider for next date night.

First, the staff is great here. Warm, friendly, genuinely want to help. The property is tired though. The halls, the rooms, etc. The room was clean but the bathroom door didn't fully shut, the beds were not comfortable and the decor dark. If we had gotten a great rate here, I would say it's what you expect. However, it wasn't a low rate.

This was my first stay at this hotel and the room was decent and the price was reasonable. I booked the room online for about $88 plus tax. The lady that I called at the hotel told me $119 and I had trouble understanding her. When I checked in Henish was very nice and helpful. I appreciate that he gave me an upgrade and let us check in early. Even he was surprised that the rate I was given was so high. I asked for towels and never got any. I did ask for my sheets to be changed and they were changed in a timely manner. But the nearby rooms stunk and there were guys painting and hammering and it was loud and it was distracting and I didn't really like the extra noise. Bottom line is: I did enjoy the room and I was satisfied with the price I paid. I would give this hotel another chance but only when the construction and/or painting is complete. Since I'm a huge Best Western fan and I'm a Diamond Select member, I would come back just for the fact that it's one of their properties and I usually get treated pretty well and I did this time around

First time staying here was recommended by a friend and was everything needed for a good quality stay. Rooms were clean, food was excellent. Staff was friendly and helpful. Great location to the train to go into NYC just a bit of a disappointed that you have to transfer trains.

Rooms were clean, but the hallways and stairs were dirty. Staff was nice. Breakfast was not the best, no vegetables, same things every day, all artificial. AC was really loud, i had problems sleeping. For one night it's fine, I don't recommend longer stay.

Greeted with "why did you book through AAA instead of directly with Best Western?" and getting the room furthest away from the lobby..... Ending with realizing our room was only currently "smoke free" but reeking of previous cigarette usage (seems that using the "low water pressure" shower must have humidified the latent smoke) DISGUSTING!.... Reported to front desk at checkout--have not heard from them (guess they don't care!)..... Do NOT go "WEST"

Had a pleasant stay at this hotel during my business trip. Staff was professional and courteous at all times. Hot tub and other room services were well maintained and cleaned everyday. Thank you for a relaxing visit.

This is a great hotel. Andy at the front desk made the check-in and check-out a breeze. He was able to show me where my room was located. The room was perfect. It had all of the necessary amenities. The breakfast great as well.

Hotel was clean and accomendating execept I did not know that they accept pets(dogs). There was a dog there when I was checking in. The owner kept him/her under control. It made some noise when I passed the room in morning going to get coffee.I'm just glad I was not in the room next door.

The hotel is clean and staff is very nice, but sometimes noise travels through the walls. The location of the hotel is convenient, and the breakfast has a good variety of items. Overall, the hotel is a good value.

we stay at this hotel for business all the time but this summer I stayed here with my family to take them to boston. it was amazing how wonderful the staff is and how they treated my family. this is the perfect hotel for business and pleasure.

the staff very up to date very prompt/noticed i had heavy luggage offered to help .the lobby n hallways very clean.parking was lighted n easy to access.the room was clean from entry to bath room.the breakfast was more than expected.a good nites rest

I had a great time. The breakfast was perfect. The rooms were clean and staff were helpful and very friendly. The room was spotless. The bed was comfortable and the staff was Professional. Wifi works great and had no trouble during check inn and checkout and it was fast and easy. Hotel located in very good area and also restaurant is also there next to hotel and great food.

This was a very low grade Best Western hotel. It had a pungent odor throughout and was not what I have come to expect out of Best Western hotels. The room and hall ways smelled. Hotel workers hovered around the back door smoking which you had to walk through their smoke. The hall and actual room had uneven flooring. The carpets were actually laid down over uneven floors which for a person with challenged walking or imbalance would have been a real hazard.

The room i had stayed in was clean, cozy, and comfortable. This particular location has up-dated the rooms with new bedding and furniture. The lobby is very nice and welcoming. The hallways leading to the rooms are very clean and neat and looks brand new. Nice color schemes.

The hotel is located just off of RT 17- Southbound in Ramsey, NJ. It is a bit obscure due to the trees surrounding the area and one may miss the hotel if they're speeding along the highway. During our stay we had the One-King sized bed with the Jacuzzi. We had no problems with the staff or our neighbors, but we did have two main gripes: no water pressure due to maintenance being done and our pillows being too fluffy and small. We expected the water maintenance to take a while because we were alerted by the staff at check-in and was given a heads-up. As for the pillows, my girlfriend and I are used to sleeping on bigger, firmer pillows that the ones provided at BW - in the end we ultimately ended sleeping without pillows. Overall, our stay was pretty decent and well worth the price paid for a BW rewards member.

Both rooms I had were dirty and smelled funky. Only after I checked in I learned that they accept pets, so that's probably why, I mean who knows what's in the carpet... when I told the hotel staff they cared a whole none at all!

Needed to stay at a hotel while I was off at business. Perfect one . After a long day . Coming back to the room I was given, is just amazing. The jacuzzi is amazing. I feel relief from everything . Then right after I fall alseep in a really comfortable bed

Excellent service.Very friendly staffs.Nice location.I loved the services.Front desk clerks were friendly.Smoothly check inn and check out.Breakfast was nice with quality foods.Room was very neat and clean.

Clean, comfortable room, good TV channel selection, WiFi was fast...Fresh, hot breakfast every morning. On site restaurant is local legend, busy, but not crowded, has a bar/lounge and restaurant section.

The hotel was very clean and the staff was very helpful and friendly. Rom was clean,spacious and comfortable.Breakfast was delicious.Overall experience was excellent.Great value for the price.I would recommend this hotel to everyone.

My daughter got into bed at 10pm and was greeted by a used condom with pubic hairs between the sheets. The management considered it a courtesy to change our room late at night. They never even came and took a look at the bed. No compensation or remorse whatsoever. The next morning a staff member had their face pushed into our truck window. He acted like he didn't speak English when my husband confronted him at our vehicle. Disgrace to the Brand. Filthy,unprofessional and disgusting.

Horrible washroom, smelly carpets and unfriendly staff. Imagine your bath water not going down while you are on your period... It was a nightmare. No hot water and no pressure in the shower. I could not even make none of this up if I wanted to. They gave us another room after we complained but it was still the most horrible hotel stay ever.

I was here on a business trip. The internet was extremely fast and the staff was also very helpful. there are housekeepers that are working till almost 11 pm so they helped me out with anything i needed. the continental break fast is great and the restaurant also offers room service. This hotel is an overall luxury place, especially with the Jacuzzi bath tubs. loved my stay and definitely coming back for leisure this time.

Although we made our reservations in July, the desk clerk told us that "the category of room" (2 beds was all we needed) we had reserved had been discontinued last month. He said that he tried to contact us that morning, and somehow tried to make it our fault rhat we didn't answer the phone while.we were on a plane. We accepted the room with the offer of a roll away. The roll away made it impossible to move around the room, and the hotel staff stacked the coffee table on top of the desk. And

I felt the staff was apathetic and condescending in resolving our issue of inches of water in our room due to a problem in the room next to ours. No other rooms available. we stayed in a room with wet floor

The hotel was very comfortable and staff were very pleasant. A lot of restaurants nearby including one attached to the hotel. The hotel was near the places we were spending time at and easy to access. The wifi was a bit slow to connect each night but fine after that. Very nice bathroom facilities including a sauna and large walk-in shower.

All you need. comfy bed, pillows and towels. Quick wi-fi, easy on and off the road. quick check in and out. Choice of pillows was great, pick and choose flat or fluffy. Blackout curtains to shut out the light. Soft towels, coffee maker and refrigerator.

Overall we felt this was a good hotel, with very good service, nice clean rooms and good accessibility for a disabled member. Breakfast was mediocre and could have had a few more items. Coffee was not as good as other places.

The Hotel is Newly renovated with comfortable beds amazing breakfast and very good internet speed. Hotel also has a Restaurant which is very good. Breakfast items are hot and fresh including eggs and waffles. Overall very clean place and very well maintained.

I was on the road traveling to Ramsey, NJ and tried to book my ticket online but the site kept timing out so I called the hotel directly. After the phone ringing and ringing, the hotel picked up and put me on hold without speaking. After being on hold for 5 full minutes (I timed it), I got an employee who tried to talk me into hanging up and booking online. He couldn't find a record of my previous stays, so I started from the beginning. When I asked for clarification on the price, he just repeated the same sentence over and over again, acting as if I didn't understand English. He got so frustrated that he told me to find another place to stay.

Staff was welcoming and friendly room was very comfortable . the WiFi was working great. always stay at this hotel when we are in town to visit friends and family. I would like to recommend this hotel to anyone who would like to stay in that area. over all the best place we stay in

I will definitely stay at Best western Hotel again. The staff were polite, courteous and patient, often recommending sights to see and places to have meals, as well as answered our millions of questions. The rooms were beautiful and clean, the room rates were reasonable. I would highly recommend to anyone to stay at this hotel.

Was satisfied with the stay and experience at this hotel, been here before and liked it then too. Will definitely return whenever in the area back and will also recommend to friends and family. Professional staff and excellent service.

This hotel is great it's clean and offers an amazing assorted breakfast items also spa tub and separate shower rooms are great ,the staff is friendly ,and hard working I travel 40mins out of my way to stay at this hotel beacause of the quality of the room, breakfast, Wi-Fi,staff,safe neighborhood,and close to all shopping it's an amazing place to stay I'm very pleased and I recommend this hotel and to get the room with jet tub separate shower treat your self for the extra 20 dollars difference in price why not enjoy a relaxing stay

Stayed only for one night. But will defiantly stay when in area. Friendly staff, clean rooms, and easy access to many restaurants, shopping, and attractions. Well located, plenty of parking, good wi-fi.

The BW has some pluses and minuses that make it an average hotel. The pluses were a nice and comfortable king size bed along with a jetted tub in the room. The minuses include needing a remodel. The shower drain was terrible and the shower pan needs replacement. Wallpaper is peeling away from the walls. The breakfast includes hot food (when they have it available apparently) but is in a bar of a restaurant.

Staff very helpful , cleanliness for common area as well as room excellent. I will definitely recommend this hotel to stay. Italian restaurant inside has very nice food. Close to many places to visit.

This hotel is under updating (painting) both on the inside and out. It is not conducive to the handicapped as there is no elevator to the 2nd floor rooms and the reception area and breakfast area are far away from the rooms. The rooms themselves are ok but didn't appreciate being woken up at 2 am by the garbage trucks right outside my window. Breakfast was ok but not terrific.

This was very clean and nice looking lobby and room. I liked the big flat screen TV. The bed was really comfy, I had a good sleep. The restaurant (Biggies) had good food. I would definitely stay here again if I am in this area.

Folks. This is quite a special property. There is a restaurant/lounge in the building that is very good. Food service and value all good. The room was amazing. I recommend their jacuzzi room the shower was bigger than my whole bathroom. Plenty of hot water also. If you're in this area stay here. You'll come back as I will

The hotel is connected to a nice restaurant/bar, Biggie's. It was convenient as we had a late dinner, the wait staff was very friendly and nice. We had free breakfast at the hotel in the morning. Great!

poor very unhappy my room ran downhill from window t door outside my room floor was cracked and coming up bathroom was very small hallways had an order. I would not ever stay here as there is a double tree right down the road.

The hotel is good, the carpet in the corridors is very old, however i had a very nice surprise when I opened my bedroom door. The room is large, comfortable, clean, had a great fridge, microwave and coffee maker. I asked for a quiet room and they gave me one (when talking about outside noise). The AC inside the room was very noisy . Next morning i mentioned to front desk and she happily said they will always move me in a case like this. I decided to give them four stars, because i feel that it was above average for this price point in that area. I will stay there again

Hotel front desk and housekeeper staff is very cooperative, Clean newly recently renovated beautiful coloured rooms.Location of hotel is near highway and parking facility is good. Surrounding greenery very peaceful.

Excellent hotel. Good breakfast, very clean and good location. Staff is very helpful too!!! Beds are very comfortable and I was able to get really good sleep. I would recommend this hotel to my friends or family at anytime.

Dirty room smelled like mold, blood on the door of the bathroom and the shower curtains and towel had blood stains. My room had holes in the wall and alot of nasty crap in the rug in the corners. Wanted to leave but i couldent get a room else were close by on short notice.

This place is great for business and leisure. Every time i come to Ramsey, i always stay here. it is quiet and has a positive atmosphere, and staff are always nice. They have a full breakfast with many varieties available to eat and they have a restaurant and bar that provides room service. Internet is high speed and always helps while doing work online.

Great weekend away getaway. We have been going here for the last year. They are in the process of updating the exterior and the rooms.Biggies restaurant and bar are excellent, Max, Tova, Ryan, William are great

This hotel is located on a busy, noisy road. We asked for a quiet room and got one, which was good. The accommodations and amenities are good. The room is comfortable; the bed was very good. Breakfast was one of the better ones I've had in my travels. Though the hallways seemed a little run-down, the room was nicely updated.

This hotel is right on a very busy highway, but the room was quiet and it was ideal for our needs. The staff were quite friendly. We particularly enjoyed the breakfast which was varied and good quality. The only trouble we had was with providing ID on arrival (licences are preferred to passports) and also with our room keys (cards which regularly stopped working).

It was a satisfying experience at this hotel. Worth the value paid for, as the entire stay went well without any issues. Check in and check out was smooth with good staff, rooms were clean and neat, internet was good speed, breakfast was also nice. Worth recommending to family and friends.

Place was dirty, staff was rude complete waste of money. This experience has resulted in not staying with best western anymore there is no level of customer service the place had a strange smell throughout the property.

one of best location in ramsey for price paid, we will definetly recomond this place. front desk and breakfast staff was very friendly . room is very clean. we would like to go there again they have complimentary parking and wifi.

Excellent quality at a very reasonable cost. Very satisfied with the stay. I would recommend anyone to stay at this hotel. If you like to have an experience of staying at home away form home, stay at this hotel. The staff is very helpful.

I came last-minute for a business meeting and actually had a positive stay from check-in to check-out. Wifi was good, bed/linen was well selected, a/c worked, and had a hot shower. Didn't use the tv/hot tub, but overall a good experience as usual. Difficult to find consistency in this price range but Hank and Charlie (receptionists) and the rest of the team do a great job running the place.

Very nice place. Quiet, neat and clean surrounding area, breakfast room, hallway and my room. Nice and helpful front desk. Professional attitude of Manager. I recommend this hotel to all my family and friends. If I get chance to visit near by place, I will stay here next time.

Staff was welcoming and friendly . Convenient location, excellent breakfast in the mornings. Room was comfortable. I am very happy with my stay and i will stay again.Best Best Western I've ever stayed at

Convenient location - located on highway but not noisy. Very comfortable bed and spacious room. Good pice - we compared it to otehr hotels in teh area that we often stay at and this weekend Best Western had teh best price. We like having breakfast included. The only issue is that there is not an elevator to second floor

dunno why the negative reviews.. rooms were clean, shower was big, wifi has great... and the staff was pleasant and helpful.. my only complaint is that the sign outside is hidden behind a bush from the property before and its EASY to drive by the place.. its easy on, easy off 17...

1. Front staff extremely helpful! 2. Room, bed, linens, towels very nice and clean!! We liked the hot tub in the room. 3. No elevator to 2nd floor. The staff offered to assist us with our luggage to 2nd floor. 4. Breakfast was ok. 5. Location is close to train station.

Nice hotel, friendly staff and excellent service. Much more than I expected. I Strongly recommend this hotel to friends, family and co-workers.Hope all of Best western have these quality of cleanese and service.

Great hotel with excellent service.The front desk was very friendly and helpful with some changes to our reservation.Beds are comfortable and ultra clean.The rooms are spacious with huge bathrooms and the amenities are just perfect, the hotel breakfast buffet was amazing. Highly recommended. I will be back.

Made a reservation by phone and explained my wife and my needs, was assured they could fill those needs. Because of an illness I checked in alone, non of those needs were met. Rooms are old and outdated, it is a multi store building and as a reference, there is NO elevator, handicap parking is at a premium and nothing is done when abused. The only thing they have going for them is the have a "Biggies" resturant.

I was looking for an ideal location before entering into New York State, and found The Inn At Ramsey of Best Western, as I was driving about two hours from Philadelphia on Friday evening to attend a wedding near Catskills, NY. An overnight stay here was an excellent idea, and we made it. Great services.

l was enjoy my stay with best western , room was very comfortable, very clean, all staff was kind and cheerful, i like their bed in very soft. nice place to stay. check in was very quick i don't have to wait longer.

Frontdesk staff was very helpful.the breakfast was also very nice. The lady in the breakfast was very helpful and always smiling. The wifi in the hotel was very good. We had 4 device and worked fine. The rooms were very clean.

It was really convenient staying at this location.staff Service was very accommodating.room was very clean and comfortable.we would definitely recommend this hotel if you are traveling through this area.

I love the place very near from highway. Rooms and hallway are neat and clean. All the necessary amenities available in room. Hotel Staffs are good.I always recommend to all for stay here. I will be their next time, if I visit near by place.

do not use this hotel until the renovations are done. Ask if they are still being renovated as They do not mention it in their services and it's not mentioned by trip advisor or any other trip services.

This property offered a decent price and advertised a continental breakfast. We were pleasantly surprised to find that they provided a FULL breakfast that was quite tasty! The eggs were better than they are at many other hotels and were offered scrambled plain or with peppers (and no meat in the eggs, which was very much appreciated!) There were cereals, breads, yogurts, fresh fruits, etc. The lady working the breakfast duty was very friendly! I also liked that there was an extra layer of security by requiring guests to use their room keys to get into the corridor of guest rooms. The room had a fridge and fast internet. I would stay here again!

This place was exactly what I look for in a 2 day, in and out business trip. The place was quiet, clean and I slept great. The only negative I could find is the parking lot gets jammed because of the attached restaurant.

My wife and I were just passing through town for one night, and the price was reasonable online. They were doing some outdoor renovation work at the entrance, but the main doors were still easily accessible. The check-in process was fine. The room was what you would expect for a BW -- clean, comfortable, nothing spectacular.

Recently renovated interior really makes these rooms feel like new and a higher caliber than previously. You cannot beat the price of these rooms either.! And they have an excellent hot buffet breakfast which is included !

Arrived after a 5 hour drive, noticed the mirror wasn't clean (see picture). Also noticed that the bathroom had seen better days. (See picture) did a check on the rest of room, it didn't look too bad. Woke up in the morning feeling like something was crawling on me, jumped out of bed to find ants in the bed! Gathered my stuff up and went to front desk to tell them and check out. When I told front desk about the ants all he said was " I'll tell the management" no sorry, no let me take something off your bill! Will be letting Best Western know!

Quite a old hotel, the outside looks much better than the rooms inside. If you are on the gound floor people can look straight into your room from Parking lot. Breakfast simple but ok. For 1 night ok, but we stood 4 nights. For the next business trip I will for sure stay somewhere else Best is the short way to the Shannon Rose Pub (other side of route 17) and the very short distance to the train station (Ramsey 17 - with a connection to NYC)

I was in town for business and stayed 3 nights. The property is currently under remodel which I bring up to lead into my experience at this establishment. I'm shocked at these good reviews! The nicest staff member was the scammer that called me from the hotel phone asking for my info due to the system gong down. They called me from the office for real the night before so I thought ok it happened again and I'm already in my pajamas. But that wad only part of it. The first night stay my air didn't work and my tv only had one channel. The trip itself was stressful enough to have to endure a night like that with no remedy due to no availability. They did offer to change my room the next day. I had to pack up all my stuff after no sleep from the hot room and long meetings the next day. The new room was better butonly because the air worked and I had a bigger tv with more channels only to really only get 1/2 Of them is that. The attached pictures are of the serving room. I do like the bathrooms but the doors look rough. Speaking of doors both of my room doors and another lady said the same thing, the room door is really hard to open and close. See attached picture of the better room the first room was worse. Back to being scammed from the hotel phone, I want to add in that I felt the need to inform the hotel that this was happening. To be aware that their staff was being inpersonated (for all I know, it might have been the staff, who knows) and stealing from their guests. Its more than stealing. The lady couldn't understand me nor could I understand her. She didn't ask the right questions for her to understand and I hit key points of the situation. In the end was just told sorry that happened to you. I really wanted to hear from her a plan of action or more concern that this is happening in their business. In the end never ever give your info out like that. I know that's basic but like I said I had to do it the night before with my business card so it didn't cross my mind it wasn't legit. I just wanted to share and make people aware. also Brown towels aren't not a god look either especially when they were once white.

overall hotel is neat, clean and well kept. Staff is kind and attentive, breakfast was a welcome surprise. OLder hotel, but has obviously been updated, rooms are well appointed, beds are comfortable for good nights sleep. I will stay here again when in the area.

The TV was not working properly so I called the front desk. She told me someone would be there asap. They weren't so I called again; no answer. I went down and asked where was the repairman; she said he was not there. She then accused me of not knowing how to operate a TV. When I asked what she said she asked if I spoke English! Worst customer service EVER! I will NEVER be back!

Average hotel overall. Room was clean and bed was comfortable. Good shower, but terrible lighting in the bathroom (I stood in the bathtub to shave as there was no lighting near the sink). The "large desk" was pretty small, but probably to be expected. Free internet was easy to connect to and worked well. Breakfast buffet was convenient, with an acceptable selection of common breakfast food.

Overall a good stay, we were on our bike heading up the east coast. Able to park the bike under a tree, they wouldn't let us park under the canopy like most other properties so we left out soggy :( hotel is currently being remodeled btw.

customer service is a priority for me , along with good quality rooms this hotel combined the best of both and I enjoyed my stay and whenever I am in town I will stay only at best western and no other hotel as they employees are just great and so is the quality of the hotel

The hotel is clean and well maintained. The mattress was very cozy. Also, the staff was professional & very helpful. My stay was great., breakfast was good. Love this place. Great value for the price.

A wonderful feeling during stay.Frontdesk cooperation is very good.Housekeeper service is fine. A Newly renovated colourful rooms very fine. Hotel location near highway and parking very nice.Wi-Fi facility is very fine.

I was a bit discouraged by the reviews and was skeptical about my choice. Check in was quick as well as check out. The room I chose was different from the picture I was given at the site I booked with. I think the picture is outdated. I was under the impression that the jacuzzi tub was directly in the room and not in the bathroom. I didn't mind that too much because we did indeed get a jacuzzi tub that fit myself and my husband (tall man, chunky woman) The bed was comfortable, noise wasn't too much of an issue, the exit wasn't too far from my room and the buffet breakfast was kept up with. I did notice that the jacuzzi tub in my room had an annoying leak that could not be saved by the towels provided( we didn't care too much about this because there is a drain in the middle of the bathroom). The breakfast was average. Eggs, bacon, sausage, muffins, cereal, juice, etc. I was extremely annoyed by the fact that I couldn't sit down and eat breakfast with my husband because the eating area was packed to the max. We had absolutely no room to walk around and pick out our food. We grabbed what we could and headed back to our room. For a romantic night away, it was worth it for us. Affordable and comfortable. I read about a smell in the halls and there was indeed a smell but nothing that couldn't be ignored. I will be returning but I will be making my way down to IHOP for breakfast the next day. Overall, we had a nice time. The cons I found did not affect my stay too much.

Very clean and neat hotel also amazing breakfast. Staff is excellent and very helpful. I would definitely stay at this place in future also will recommend to friends and family if they are around that area

clean huge room with a Jacuzzi, also has a microwave and refrigerator comfortable bed later checkout than most hotels at noon friendly attentive staff large breakfast with hot prepared food coffee and tea in lobby entire day for guests central location

Good location with perfect on & off highway, close to food and gas. Remodeling noise on back side didn't bother me, just kept curtains and window closed. Good, healthy selections for breakfast plus all the normal junk sweets. Heard a dog the 2nd night and after half hour the owners either returned and/or calmed it down. Someone was smoking in the hallway but it didn't filter into the room... as I'm allergic, I used my inhaler in the hallway... but I thought it was rude they didn't go outside.

We were in the Ramsey area for a family function. Three other families were there too and we all were satisfied with our experience. The breakfast was nice and the staff were helpful. Great value for the price.

The room my wife and I stayed had holes in the wall burn marks and stains in the carpet pieces of wood missing from the furniture tiles in the bathroom missing and falling down no water pressure when you would flush the toilet and breakfast was a fun experience got there at 8 o'clock and no eggs left no employee bothered to refill or bring out more

We stayed as a large group, and had several rooms. The beds were comfortable, staff accommodating, breakfast was standard. Great value for the money. The restaurant/bar attached was a great way to wind down after spending the day in the city.

Poor check in. Problems with room. Hotel is in serious decline. Okay hotel but they have to do far better job. Marriott down the road is far superior and the rates are comprable. Much better service as well.

The room was okay, definitely not worth the $120/night I paid just to get a jetted tub. I wish I would have just got a regular room. You could tell there was water damage in the room (damp feeling carpet, wallpaper seams peeling), the room was a little dark, AC unit was loud, shower floor was rough and hurt to stand on. You can tell it's an older place. The floors are uneven in the room and in the hallways. The breakfast was great! I wouldn't recommend spending more than $80 a night at this place.

Excellent staff and very clean hotel. The manager and front desk person out of their normal way to help us during the stay. I would definitely recommend this hotel to friends and family memebers. Keep up the good work

not very clean bed was uncomfortable just very outdated decor no pool or hot tub no are to take a nice stroll have my room things did not work properly like remote frig just no going to stay there again

the hotel as severe structural damage to the floor it is sinking in the hallway, this hotel should not be allowed to be in business it is extremely dangerous and dirty and it smells bad. Also I forgot my charger for my phone but I guess the cleaner stole it because they never found it. Stay there at your own risk and if you go approach with a ten-foot pole.

I loved my stay here!! the hotel is amazing, the staff are very friendly and helpful and the rooms are beautiful. They have jetted tubs too! hotel has a restuarant that delivered right to my room and that was great after a long days drive. Oh they have an amazing, fully continental breakfast in the morning with bacon and eggs and waffle. very satisfied!!! all of the staff together made my stay very pleasant and comfortable. Felt like i was a VIP. Definitely coming back!

I have stayed at this hotel more times then I can count and never ever had an issue the last stay was BEYOND TERRIBLE. From the costomer service to the room to the location of the room I was out in. You should put guests in a section of the hotel that's under construction. Waking up to that was HORRIBLE.

The room was pleasant and sober but nothing extravagant but looked very welcoming and decent. Furniture looked spotless and new compared to other run down hotels I have been to in the area (I don't want to give out any names). Flatscreen HD tvs could have been little bigger but nothing major to complain about because it had my sports and movie channels like ESPN and FX. Bathroom was clean which made my her very happy and comfortable using it otherwise she goes crazy. The King bed was soft and pillows were super comfortable and it was perfect for us to cuddle and get romantic . Biggies had a huge bar and amazing food, my personal favorite Thai Coconut Shrimp , two thumbs up for sure..... definitely coming back again.

Suitable as a stop for truckers or as an inexpensive stop for long distance budget travelers. Motel is a generation behind in all ways. Stopping there is like stepping into the 1960's. Adjoining restaurant is a good match. It is a low end sports bar with a rowdy crowd. OK for take-out but not a suitable setting for families.

I get non smoking room, when I was on visit to attend marriage of my friends in last February, 2017. My room as well as hotel is neat and clean and nice stay. Hotel location is on highway, so easy to find it. Front desk is very humble and helpful.

i spent twon nights here this weekend The bar and restuarant were really nice and the jetted tub in room. but the second night we discovered room 118 had alive bed bugs crawling on the bed. and we lifted the mattress to see black bed bug dots. With a few more bugs. I went down to complain quietly and politely telling them about this and they did not care at all. i packed myself up all my stuff and drove home at 11pm. no refund or anything. I wrote to them also and no response.I liked this hotel but bed bugs are not a joke and can make you very sick. I took photos as well. Don't stay here. And I am upset over all of this especially the fact I have clothes dry cleaned for safety. No discounts were offered or refunds at all. This was the worst trip all my life traveling.

I travel frequent on my business trip often to new jersey. usually I stay either at Ramada or Super8 depending on my location I am going to..This time I have decided to stay at Best Western at Ramsey NJ. This is one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in New Jersey. I received a very warm reception from the Front desk person.I stayed there for 2 nights and it was an amazing experience,This is a very nice property conveniently located at the heart of the city.Staff is wonderful excellent Hot breakfast with a variety of Items.The breakfast lady was very polite and hospitable overall experience was very good. I would definitely stay at this hotel whenever I visit Ramsey

The room was very well laid out and it was very clean and neat. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom had a very large hot tub and great shower setup. The breakfast buffet was hot and fresh and very tasty. The common areas were all immaculate and comfortable. It was quiet. I will definitely stay there again next time I travel to NJ

This is excellent place to visit. I visited Best Western Inn at Ramsey last month on my husband's birthday.and i must say that they provide excellent customer service with room service of food, housekeeping, free break fast in the and wifi . they also provide free gym passes if anybody conscious. so i advise everybody to visit best western inn at ramsey and feel the comfort....

You have to try this Best Western Inn for a wonderful experience of a brand new rooms,excellent service, healthy breakfast, easy access to major highways, restuarants. I have stayed in many hotels for the business. This was a great experience. They gave me a room with a jacuzzi which was very relaxing after a long day.

Road touch Location of Hotel is very good, New decorative rooms are clean and with toiletry material, Good service, Hotel staff is very good and cooperative every time. surrounding area is also peaceful and nice.

Do not stay here!! DO NOT STAY HERE! My family and I stayed for two nights. All was fine the first night, other than the fact that ANYONE is able to open the "locked" outside door. I watched people simply stick a credit card into the lock on the door and and it opens. A little unsettling but at least our room doors lock, Right? Sadly, that wasn't the case. Our second night, after my kids were asleep (around 10pm), I left my room (room 125) to go to the ice machine. I did not want to wake my sleeping children so I gently closed the door but noticed the handle and lock were VERY loose. Out of curiosity, I turned the door handle and nudged the door a little with my shoulder to find out the door opens wide up! My husband called down to the front desk explaining our safety concern that our door does not work. The "manager" didn't care or want to hear it and he made it seem like he didn't believe us. He even tried saying WE must have done something to the door to make it that way! I decided to take a video of how easily it is to open my door and I will be sending to corporate. After almost an hour of arguing with the "manager" about how unsafe we felt in our room, he finally agreed to change our room (which he refused at first because he felt it was not necessary). He also rudely said that since nothing happened in result to our door not properly locking, it wasn't a big deal. So in other words, since no one broke into our room while we were gone and stole our things or worse, broke in while we were in our room, it wasn't "that serious". So we began packing and waking up our children so we could move. After settled, I personally went to the desk and demanded a manger come to my room first thing in the morning. Fast forward to the morning. No manager. No call. Nothing! After being disgusted over how poorly they treat their customers, I called corporate explained our situation and was told they were "so sorry" for everything, placed us on hold and called the hotel we were at. After being on hold for about 15 minutes, she came back on to tell us the manager handled the outside door situation (which was a total lie because I went outside and tested it with the same results). She then said there was nothing they could really do about it but offered us $20 off another night...$20?! And offer a few rewards points to eventually earn a free night stay. That's nice and all but considering my concerns with the safety of this hotel and considering how poorly they treated my husband and I when we addressed the concerns and blamed us for the door, I will not be staying at a Best Western hotel from here on. It's upsetting because I did like this place, the jacuzzi tub, the size of the room and that it's connected to a really good bar/restaurant, but the safety of myself and my family is important even though they did not think so. The video I took of how easy it was to open my room door will be posted everywhere to warn people about this horrible hotel! In addition to the door not locking, upon examining the door I noticed about 4 or 5 bolts in the frame which leads me to believe the door had been kicked in at some point in the past and "fixed" horribly.

Weekend getaway in Sleepy Hollow/Tarrytown, NY. Last year there was a Best Western in that area, but it has since been changed to a different chain. We called the Best Western 800 number to book the room and were told it was only about 12 miles from Sleepy Hollow. Well, that's if you can fly over the river. We checked the distance once arriving in Sleepy Hollow and it showed it was in fact a 45 minute drive. That really disappointed us because we like to easily go back and forth to our hotel as needed, but couldn't do that on this trip. Once we did arrive at the hotel we found it to be clean and comfortable. The front desk was very nice and helpful. The price includes a hot breakfast buffet in the adjoining restaurant. If in that particular area we would definitely stay there again, but not if we are staying in the Tarrytown area. If you are in the area you won't be disappointed with staying at this hotel.

I stayed @ best western inn, Ramsey,NJ several times and it got better each time. Excellent service,brand new rooms, everything nearby, scenic, and much more made me feel @ HOME. You must try once for the value of your money.

We enjoyed our stay here very much. Easy access to the highway. Couples-friendly bathroom. The staff were very courteous and helpful in facilitating a productive stay. Only negative was that the hallways smelled of old carpet.

An excellent stay guaranteed , nice ,helpful and polite staff clean rooms ,great breakfast , perfect location. good for business or couples or when travelling with family or friends a comfortable enjoyable stay is definitely assured the staff is great I would like to come back and stay with this hotel when I come back to this area.

I recently stayed at this Best Western which I first stayed at last year. I liked the rooms and whirlpool tub and rates are reasonable. Not much has changed since last year except they have rental cars (national) available in lobby. When I checked in after 10pm, the older middle eastern male seemed flustered, as several people showed up, and he kept getting calls (sounded like disgruntled previous guests). He took a call when it was my turn and the check in process took several minutes. When I entered through a rear door I saw numerous fans in the hallways by some of the rooms. Of course there was one right outside of my room #115. It was loud too. When I entered I noticed white powder all over the carpet throughout the room. It also had a strong smell. I called and asked if it was poisones and was told I should be fine. He said there was a problem with the room a few days ago....I shouldn't have been given it until it was completely clean......After a few minutes I decided to ask for another room. I got room 107 which was not renovated and had older furnishings than 115. The shower however was much nicer and larger with a bench and two body jets in the shower. The counter is too small though. The whirlpool was awesome as it had strong jets and is very comfortable. The room was old, the headboard was literally falling apart, peeled wallpaper, and it took me 15 minutes to get the tv to work. I called the front desk and was told someone would be down in a minute but after 10 I fixed it myself. The WORST thing was the AC unit. Despite setting it to cold and high it rarely stayed on (unless in fan mode which wasn't that cold ) and made the room feel very warm. It was late and I didn't want to have to complain or switch rooms again so I dealt with it and slept terribly, The breakfast was great and well stocked at 9am. I really liked the guava orange passion fruit juice eggs and bacon. There was a good variety of items and most was fresh but the sausage were dried out and spit out bad. I did not hear any noise from guests and felt safe. I got food next door and wings were good but pizza was bland and Biggies is pricey. If in the area again I might consider returning just due to the nice whirlpool tubs and decent breakfast but hope the service and cleanliness improves. I was disappointed to see so many fans throughout the hallways like the place flooded or something. Please don't give guests rooms that aren't clean or have power every where!

Stayed here because we were in town for a family wedding. The night we came the room was not cleaned. The front desk helped to get us another room eventually. Very shady people staying here. Not family friendly. First floor of hotel seemed ok but good god the second floor was slanted and looked like a horror movie. The room was OK. My wife killed a roach in the bathroom. The cleaning staff did a good job prepping the room each day...but you can just tell a lot of nasty stuff goes down here lol. Location is very accessible to R17. No laundry service and room service limited to restaurant next door. Phone did not work either so good luck trying to place an order haha. Breakfast was complimentary...and it should be since it was barely acceptable. We just went to Ihop and Mc'ds instead. Won't be staying here again. Ever. Thank God!

While the room was nice there is not much else good to say about the stay. Minimal security while located on a major road. Homeless people sleeping in cars in the back parking lot. Automatic locking entrance door did not work. Breakfast would have been better across the street. Staff seemed to be just putting in time. The hotel is a bar/nightclub with a hotel attached. There are better Best Westerns and other hotels nearby.

Stayed at this hotel 625&26, on 6/25 found roached in the room evening desk clerk was no help called next day and spoke to manager he said he'd comp the room, when i checked out Sunday morning they changed thier story and only gave me a 25% discount. I will never stay here again, roaches are unexceptable and after they offered me a 25% discount they still charged my credit card the full price had to call Best Western Corporate to finally get my 25% credited to my account. The managers I spoke to two, one who said he'd comp the room was nice but didn't follow through and the front desk manager his name began with a R don't have it with me know was so rude implied I might have brought the roaches. But the first manager I spoke to agreed they had a roach problem prior. The management lies and don't care about customer service. Don't waste your money. I am a gold BW member and this is one of the worst Best Westerns

The dogs were barking all night . Did not get any sleep , front clerk did nothing to resolve the issue, When calling the front desk to complain the only thing you got was a voice mail and how the Manager was going to get back to you, The breakfast was cold and no dishes but paper. There was no place to sit over crowed and not enough tables or chairs to sit down to eat in the morning the halls were hot the front desk was hot and dirty area not clean, There was a bus load of people going to Canada and there were 4 dogs not small and barking all night . Hot as heck in the halls and front end. No elevator for second floor dirty second floor area and steps .

On June 11, I booked a last minute flight and hotel room for June 12 for a friend's funeral. When I arrived in New Jersey the next day, I realized it was more preferable for me to be in Hoboken instead of Ramsey. I called the hotel when I was supposed to check in and asked if I was able to transfer my reservation to a Hoboken location instead. I was told they couldn't transfer the reservation, but that they would cancel my reservation and refund my credit card so I could rebook elsewhere -- which I did. A month later, I received my credit card statement and noticed the hotel did NOT refund me. I called and spoke with Morty who said I wouldn't be refunded because I didn't cancel the reservation 24 hours ahead of time. (My reservation wasn't originally made 24 hours prior to when I called.) The main problem is -- I never requested a refund in the first place. I simply wanted to transfer my reservation, but the person on the phone is the one who offered on his own to cancel the reservation and refund me. If this was never presented to me as a solution, I would've stayed there and saved $115. Regardless of whether or not a cancellation after 24 hours is against there policy, it is 100% unacceptable that they refuse to honor what the employee promised to a customer. This shows a complete lack of integrity and accountability on not only the Ramsey management's behalf, but the larger Best Western brand. Best Western's corporate office has been equally as unhelpful as this location's management. I've never seen such poor customer service in my life.

The Lobby was Never, not once throughout my 7 day stay at the Hotel, properly stocked with coffee cups, creamer, sweeteners, etc. I Upgraded my room to a Jacuzzi Room, the Jacuzzi was disgustingly dirty and didn't work properly, Maintenance had to come to fix it. We were told we would be given a 40% discount off for 2 days, of the $120 per night room rate we were charged. Then there wasn't any Breakfast staff available that same morning of the 29th of June, so everything was running out in the dining room by 7:45 am. I spent over 2 hours that morning running around back and forth between the kitchen and dining room helping Christy the front desk clerk get food, juice and coffee set up for the Hotel Guests. There all plenty of people, ie, guests, housekeeping/hotel staff, including the Managers themselves who can attest to this FACT!!! AND the Hotel did not have any running water for approx. 3.5 hours that morning (6/29/2016) as well. The following day around noon on 6/30/2016, our toilet was leaking from the bottom of the tank in the bathroom and the toilet paper holder was broken, so the toilet paper fell in the water that was all over the floor. We had to leave our room for several hours so Maintenance could go into the room and repair it. July 3rd & July 4th, Housekeeping didn't bother to enter our room to clean the room, do our beds nor give us clean, fresh towels (I had left all the wet, dirty towels on the bathroom floor in a pile). When I complained to Kenny on the 4th around 6:30 he advised me that housekeeping had left for the day and that according to the paperwork I had a Do Not Disturb sign on my door. I told him that Was Not True! I had made sure to leave the DND sign next to the television, which is exactly where I found it, to ensure that the room would be cleaned. First thing, the next morning on July 5th, I spoke to Christy, explaining to her what happened and she pulled out the paperwork to check and showed me that I, in FACT, had not had Any DND Sign on my door. I asked her to put in a Complaint against Kenny for lying to me, in trying to cover up the housekeeping staff's failure to do their job and also to put in a complaint against the housekeeping staff for not cleaning my room 2 days in a row. The Managers of the Hotel are not really concerned about their Guests. When I checked out of the Hotel on July 5, 2016 when I checked out of the Hotel, I was given my check out statement for $804.93 and I asked, to verify that I would not be incurring any additional charges due to upgrades because I didn't see it on my bill. I was advised that due to all my Inconveniences that ALL had been credited back to my bill and that I was not being charged anything additional. Just my initial $804.93 advanced hotel purchase. I REPEATED, are you Sure? I was told, Yes, that is your complete bill. I said Thank you and left, not expecting any additional charges. Posted on July 7, 2016 was an additional $161.00 charge, transaction dated July 6, 2016. I called immediately and was given the run around. I filed a dispute with my credit card company. I am Very Unhappy with my stay and treatment, during and after at Best Western. I NEVER Expected this from your establishment and will definitely think twice about staying at a Best Western in the Future!

We stayed here for one night. Carpet in room was wet - signs were everywhere about wet - no mention during booking - and room smelled. Night manager was very prompt and moved us to a different room - promised to discount our room. Morning manager acted like nothing had happened. And only grudgingly discounted our room. And we have a platinum BW card We forgot that we had stayed here a few years earlier where our last room was literally on a slanted floor. Would not stay again although we would stay at other BW's as we've had good experience with the chain. Parking was a bit annoying as several of the spots near the front are dedicated for the restaurant in the hotel

bathroom light over mirror took long time to turn on, shower tiles were all broken and not secured to shower floor, they came apart and stuck to my feet, no sincere apology from staff, had to ask for wifi password, for my welcome bag, what time was breakfast. no info provided (wifi /checkout/breakfast etc) placed in handicap room towards front / I'm not handicapped and a quieter room location would have been nice. other than bathroom, the room was clean and bed comfortable. but that's it.

I reserved this hotel at last minute for my husband and I the weekend of Father's Day. I requested the jetted tub room and we were fascinated & were able to relax for a night away from the kids. The shower was great as well. Breakfast also was great! No big complaints. I'll consider staying again to get a better experience! Staff was very nice and accommodating. I'm actually surprised to see the negative reviews just because I didn't even have a chance to go through them before I booked which I usually do. Don't regret not going through reviews before !

I've held my tongue too long. Stayed here several times - always hoping things will change. The slanted halls/rooms on the second floor won't change of course (true -very true) but other things should have. The price and the breakfast were always the main attraction. But the prices have gone up and the breakfast quality has gone down. Route 17 traffic is noisy and access to the NJ transit station used to be easy but that has been cut off by a neighbor. Stayed there recently with very nice check in experience but nice ended there. The room was one of the worst slanted in the building - so bad it should not even be used. WiFi was poor at best. Pillows were old. Room smelled odd. Toilet seat very loose. Furnishings/decor are still dated. Security door in the back broken and propped open. Breakfast a disaster (set up girl quit and walked out) so little or nothing was offered (no lobby coffee ) and nobody at front desk for checkout. Also no elevator, no gym, no pool. ATM broken. Time to look elsewhere - seriously !

This hotel was a great disappointment. It looks nice on the outside but we had a horrible stay. The front desk clerk was indifferent at best and did not care that the hotel had overbooked. I had specifically asked for a ground floor room so that my mobility challenged husband would not have to walk any farther than necessary from the car to the room. The only room available at check in was a second floor room. And there is no elevator. The room had a chemical odor similar to Simple Green cleaner. When we opened the window to air it out, there was no screen on the window. There was hardly any toilet paper in the bathroom, and no backup roll. So I had to walk all the way down to the front desk to get a roll of toilet paper. The snoze button on the alarm clock was missing/broken. And the "free breakfast" was horrible. The eggs, sausage, hash browns, etc were inedible. It was a very bad experience and we will not go back there again.

We stayed here for a party under a set of rooms that were supposed to be in a block. Each time we called, we spoke with a new person, and no one could help us, with a new issue at every corner. Terrible communication skills. Never again.

If you enjoy rooms designed like your inside a funhouse, then you must stay here. Lobby is small, no elevators, hallways are slanted like a ramp, the rooms are spacious, dated and have slants in them. In room coffee is not very tasty. Bed was comfortable, and the work station is OK. Bathroom is small, shower curtain does not stay in place. Breakfast was sketchy. The first day of my stay they ran out of eggs, coffee. I told front desk clerk about this, and she really could care less. The sausage links were burnt beyond belief, however the bacon was cooked very well. Biggie's Restaurant at the hotel has a wide variety on their menu. Prices are a little high, but they are in line with NJ. Parking lot is spacious, and extremely difficult to turn right onto 17. Traffic is fast, and not too many opportunities to turn safely.

Accessing this hotel was very difficult, as it is located on Rte 17. We often had to add 10 minutes to our trips because of it. While we were fortunate to stay in a room that did not face the highway, we heard a number of guests complain about how noisy their rooms were. They advertised an on-site gym, however, it actually located across the highway, which entailed a 12 minute drive. But our greatest problem was with the management. We changed the date of our reservation, but were promised the same rate. When we arrived, they tried to charge us a significantly higher rate. When we protested, they claimed to have changed it. However, when we looked at our credit card statement a few weeks later, they not only charged us the higher rate, but also charged us for the date of our original reservation. I would recommend avoiding this hotel at all costs.

I own a company in Wyckoff and have new drivers come in for meetings as well as people from other areas of the country. This has always been an excellent hotel for our needs. The staff has been professional and courtesy at all times. The rooms are clean and comfortable.

This is an older Best Western hotel right on Route 17 and is easy to get to. The staff were professional, efficient and friendly. Overall, rooms are ok. The king size bed was very comfortable, and the room came with a nice TV, frig, and microwave oven. The complementary morning breakfast was excellent with both a hot meal or a lite fare. Further, the wi-fi was free and at a good strength. One final good note is that the room also came with a safe for storage of personal property. There is no gym or area for a walk. Our one real issue was that the hotel did not have an elevator. There is a restaurant attached to the hotel called "Biggies." This restaurant has a good menu and nice bar area frequented by local families and business people. Bottom line is that if I was on a business trip, I would consider staying here again.h

Clean, comfortable room with hot breakfast included. The quality of the hot food could have been better and sometimes items were not available, both food and plates. Attendant, however, quickly responded.

We reserved days ahead a room on the second floor with two queen beds and when we arrived, they switched us to a handicap room with small beds on the first floor, saying that the hotel was overbooked. The room was very dirty, had a disgusting smell and the bathroom door didn't even close. Also, we didn't get to sleep all night because kids were running in the hotel until 5am and the manager who knew about the situation didn't even intervened by respect for the people who paid to get a nice sleep at his hotel. Finally, by 8am there was no more food and coffee left at the breakfast buffet because once again, the manager overbooked the hotel and didn't take in consideration the amount of food necessary to feed all these people. We tried talking nicely to the manager but this one said that he was too busy for us which is extremely rude and is not a way to respond to the customers. If it wasn't for the good staff who nicely accepted to credit our stay the next day, we were going to call the police on the manager. We've been booking at this hotel for the passed 10 years almost every month. Now with the new administration, the quality, service and cleanliness dropped considerably and we will never place foot in this hotel again.

The place was very clean and the food was good. Staff are helpful. One manager not so friendly. I would stay again. They have a free breakfast and the restaurant and bar next door are good. Outside is clean and I enjoyed my stay.

I'm in hotel maintenance and your hotel was very clean. I have a habit of checking the air filters in the rooms because I have allergies. I oversee three locations and I make sure my guys stay on top of the PM's. Thanks for a pleasant stay…

The hotel is on highway 17, a busy highway in north-eastern New Jersey. The hallway to the rooms on the first floor is tiled with marble! Rather expensive for this type of hotel. The room was spacious with a large seated shower and a separate whirlpool bath. Wifi did not work in the room, although it did in the restaurant. The breakfast was good.

I arrived late and was leaving early the next morning - the room was ready for my arrival, wifi was fantastic and breakfast in the morning was fine. Nothing spectacular, but I felt safe on property and had a nice stay.

Very accommodating staff. The only whirlpool tubs in the area and its right off 17... Good shopping nearby- close to train AND its the best all you can eat breakfast around. I stay there every time (more than 20 times)

nice place, close to rail station so we could easily get into NYC without having to have to drive. The people at the desk were very accomadationg in helping with directions and offering a great place to eat dinner which we appreciated.

The Inn has been around a long time and for a price value combination, it is very good. Restaurant and bar are first rate and there are a ton of local places to visit. Definate a good place to stay. Staff was a bit new but resolved problems correctly and in good spirits. Nothing bad to say.

Great prices. The staff was very friendly and courteous. The attached restaurant/bar is very popular with the locals. Prices a little higher than we are used to but the food was great. Breakfast was included in the room price. Do note that this is a two story motel and there is NO elevator. A staff member did offer to carry our bags but we declined as it was not an issue for us. But this might be for someone else. Ask for a first floor room if necessary. I don't know what happened during construction but the floors do slope this way and that a bit in the rooms and hallways. Not an issue but a source of amusement. Located right on Rt 17. Easy on/off to get to motel. We have stayed here twice and would stay again.

I have stayed here many times on business and have always enjoyed it. I don't always have a car, so the location near shops and restaurants is great. They don't have a gym, but offer free passes to a gym on the north side of 17 if you ask. Only negative is that the hotel doesn't have an elevator. It is only 2 floors, but if you have heavy luggage it could be a pain! The staff are friendly and professional. On one occasion, I was initially given a room that hadn't been cleaned yet from the previous guest (was mislabeled in their system). I immediately returned to the front desk to notify them; they were very apologetic and upgraded me to a Jacuzzi suite.

I always enjoy my room with the Jetted oversized Tub at the Best Western and the bed is always so comfortable...it's just awesome...And now the restaurant on site is great too. Really wish I could've stay a few more nights.....but I have to say I love this place and during the day there are tons of places to shop...4 stars

This was the first time we stayed here. Our only complaint was the traffic during the night. Next time we will know to ask for a room on the other side of the building. Breakfast was good. Nice selection but the oatmeal was instant.

Good place to stay a few days. Opt for the big jetted tub suites for some good relaxation. Conveniently located within walking distance to the train station. Housekeeping does a great job cleaning and they were all very friendly. Yes, there may be some updates needed but it is still a good value and clean for an older hotel. The one major complaint I have for mgt is that the central bathroom ventilation system was turned off. I think the problem with this speaks for itself. Some of the other reviews mention that noise is a concern. You can hear water pipes running etc. The jetted tubs have high volume faucets that can be a little noisy but at least the big tub fills fast. Outside of this, I would consider staying here again.

No complaints on any aspect of this hotel. Everything was great and price was very reasonable. I would return to this hotel anytime I am in the area, with or without family. Highly recommended hotel for anyone.

We stayed here last weekend and the hotel was actually a bit creepy. The rooms were outdated with disgusting carpet, the bathrooms looked like the walls had been painted over and over again and the shower was so narrow that my husband decided not to use it. On top of it, the check in time is not until 4pm and the receptionist gave us a hard time when we called the day before to commit to an early check in so that we could get ready for a 5pm wedding. We were accommodated, but it left a very, very bad aftertaste. The breakfast was good, though the room was too small for the amount of people they had to accommodate

The hotel is conveniently located within an hours drive of New York City so after your day in the Big Apple you can easily get away to a calmer environment. The hotel is clean and up-to-date. No workout room but free passes to the gym right across the highway. The only issue is the rather disturbing slant in the floors. The halls "wave" up and down from end-to-end and my room had a slant that caused items to roll across the floor. I would not recommend this hotel for anyone who has had a bit too much to drink!

Conveniently located on Route 17 with decent rooms and an attached restaurant worth eating at. Dog friendly too. Interesting bathroom if you stay in rm 125. The bedroom has sliding glass mirrored doors which you can open up to the bathroom with its jet tub. Very interesting (LOL).

I expected more for the amount of money I spent for just one night. It did not wow me, would probably not return. The room was acceptable and clean, there were a few issues with some bathroom maintenance or upkeep. I felt I did not get what I paid for, I could have stayed at a less expensive hotel and got the same.

Great value - not cheap, but not outrageously priced. It's very clean and beds are comfortable. The breakfast is pretty darn good, too! Biggie's (pub) has nice food and a great draft beer selection. Only drawback is the noisy flat roof if you stay on the second floor when it rains.

We could not have enjoyed our stay more! Wonderful staff, amazing rooms and fantastic extras! The staff could not have been more pleasant. Unfortunately, that is just not the norm anymore! Well done! We will absolutely stay here again.

This is a clean hotel with great staff. The room and the hotel itself is clean. There are many items available for breakfast. The parking is conducive to your location of the room you are given. I even got an upgrade free of charge and without asking. I recommend staying here.

We have been there twice now, for our anniversary. They have king sized beds with two person jacuzzi tubs in the room. They offered soup in the lobby and free coffee and flavored water. They even had champagne (with strawberries!) and wine and cheese. This may have been because it was Valentine's weekend, not sure. The restaurant attached to the hotel is fantastic. We had a dozen oysters (two different types!) and these amazing pannini's. The drinks were also great. Free hot breakfast in the same restaurant the next day. There is a ton of shopping in the area, A great day and night away from Brooklyn! Remember, all shops are closed on Sundays because of the blue book laws. That was the only bummer.

The Inn at Ramsey is a clean hotel with some great features. Nice restaurant, 24 hour coffee or tea and the staff is extremely accommodating. Did I mention the price is amazing? I've stayed several times and found Christine and Matt the (front desk staff) to be very friendly and above all else willing to make my stay as enjoyable as possible. This past weekend the general manager Will was walking through the breakfast buffet asking people if they enjoyed their stay. You just don't get that level of service in an inexpensive hotel. When reading reviews here I am amazed that people complain. If you want the Ritz Carlton pay the price and go. If you want a clean hotel with a great breakfast at a great price this is the place!

My Hubby and I like to get away from our busy schedules and relax in the comfort of this hotel. we love this hotel and will book again in the near future. there is a nice shopping center 1 minute away which was so awesome.

Professional Staff, Good food in the Rest./Lounge, Good experience. Arrived late in the day, room was ready and waiting for us, Was able to sleep in a little later due to late work appointment. Front desk was very accommodating for late check out.

I stayed at the Best Western For two Nights and it was great. Im not sure what everyone is complaining about because I thought it was excellent. Yes, you can hear the fun activities that the people next door are having but it's not that big a deal. I could only hear the people next door once after that it was quiet the whole stay. The breakfast was also better than I expected. Most hotels don't even give breakfast so that was very nice. The only thing I have to give a small complain about is the smell of cigarette in our No Smoking Room. Seems like the people before us did not abide by the rules. But besides that, everything was great!

Nice staff, good restaurant attached but walls as thin as ice! Hard to relax when you can hear others in their rooms as clear as if they we're in your room!! Also no elevator, so enjoy walking up steps with all your suitcases as well.

Let's start with the positive: room was clean and in good order, beds were comfortable, there was a large fridge and a microwave in the room, hallways looked neat and breakfast was tasty. Wi-fi worked fine. Now, the bad: When we checked in at 11 PM, I was "greeted" by front desk clerk John with an ice-cold attitude - the worst check-in experience I have seen in years of travelling. The man wouldn't look at me nor say a single word. He simply slapped the contract and magnetic cards on the counter and that was it. When I asked for a 3rd magnetic card, he looked like I was 100% annoying him. The next day, at around 9 AM, when I entered the breakfast lounge, floors were covered with dirt from the New Year's Eve party. A staff member was sloppily mopping the floor over dirt. She remained in the breakfast area the whole time I was there, mumbling rants against the mess she had to clean up. Later, at check-out time, the front desk clerk was slumped in his chair, sleeping with his head resting on the wall. I had to make noise to wake him up. When I said I was checking out, I gave him my room number and he simply said, "you're all set" in a bored/annoyed tone. When leaving the hotel, I saw him slumped in his chair again, now playing with his cellphone. My friend's wife, who was staying with us, tried to make a call using a calling card from the room. It didn't work, so she went to the front desk to be told by the same unpleasant clerk there was a $25 fee to activate the line. The building looks clean and generally inviting, but is built like and endless maze. You may walk a lot with your luggage. There is no elevator to the second floor. All in all this place was far from bad and the price was attractive, but the staff made our stay dull and depressing. Even if staffers were possibly tired from NYE celebrations, this is no excuse for such a lack of care and professionalism.

The walls are paper thin allowing the next rooms "X" rated activities to bleed through. The beds were very uncomfortable and the WiFi worked sparatically, the floors are warped not allowing the doors between rooms to fully open. The hotel needs an overhaul desperately along with the beds. On a positive note the breakfast buffet was well presented along with great tasting hot coffee. The staff did their best to accommodate us and for that they deserve positive recognition. All-in-all a decent value with regard to location and sopping venues, Bear Mountain, NYC, etc...

Comfortable, affordable hotel. Nice touch to have the TV remote in a special bag indicating that it has been cleaned. Rooms are away from the highway, so there is little to no road noise, but some room noise does seep in. Great breakfast selections.

The Front Door REP John Hates his LIFE! And the Rooms are on a Slant, yes you read it Correct. A SLANT.... The place is in a nice AREA in New Jersey. The place look dreary. Only positive was the cleaning staff, and the beds were pretty comfy

The place is safe and clean. Not a lot of frills. a great place to stay the night. has a nice restaurant/bar. 15 minutes to malls and entertatinment. Within walking distance to a major supermarket. easy check in easy check out.

Well the hotel was clean and the room was satisfactory. Outer security doors did not lock at the specified time. Not enough parking for hotel guests. Restaraunt guests parked in hotel slots which caused me to park around the building from my entrance. Lastly, breakfast was supposed to be open at 6:30 per the website but they put a sign on the door that it opened at 7:30. I needed to be on the road by 7. No breakfast that day for me!

Room smelled. Walls are thin so you can hear everything people do and say next door. You have to pull your door shut or it sticks open. When we went to check out, there was no one around. The morning breakfast was average. We will never stay at this hotel again.

Knowing that Route 17 is always busy and therefore I thought it would be difficult to find the hotel and to get there. Yet, I was very easy to find it. The check-inn was smooth and easy. The room was clean and large enough to relax, but I smelled a bit too strong deodorant; I assume previous guests smoked there, even though it was a Non-Smoking room. The service I really enjoyed was free breakfast. It was more than just a continental breakfast. Overall, Best Western in Ramsey provided more than the price.

Excellent value for the $. We booked the king room with the Jacuzzi tub and loved it. The sauna shower with the three shower nozzles was wonderful also. The breakfast the next morning before we hit the road again was very good and all fresh. I would recommend this hotel for couples, families and the business traveler as well.

My previous booking was a AARP/Senior price of $80 per night. My second booking for a Valley Hospital surgery went up to $95 per night that's wrong as a rewards member who travels a lot around the country.

Let me start out here with this: The people here were great. They tried to help out as best they could and they did it with a smile and a good attitude. The hotel itself, however, had no elevator, the floors in the hallways made you feel like you were going up and down hills, there was no hot water on the non-highway side of the building, and the radiator made so much noise we couldn't sleep very well. Also, I could hear conversations in the hallway and the rooms next to us...and they were not shouting. The wallpaper was peeling, there was not much light, and there was only one plug near the bed...and it was on the far side of the wall from the headboard.

Walls paper thin and constant noise from surrounding rooms beside and above made this very uncomfortable. less than 4 hours sleep per night because of it. Toilet didn't flush and TV didn't work. The breakfasts were good but that was the hotels only saving grace

Do NOT stay at this facility. Poor quality overall. Air quality poor, smelly rugs, dirty bathrooms, breakfast room and food very bad, tv remotes not standard quality, rooms tiny, loud scary guests, smell of smoke in non-smoking environment, poor parking, expensive

I usually stay here 1 or 2 nights a year during my visits in the NY and NJ area. Its in a great location close to a lot of amenities, restaurants and shops. Staff is helpful and a great breakfast selection. Rates are very reasonable. Great place to stay overall.

I have used this property several times for new employees relocating as well as other business associates. The staff has always been extremely helpful and the value is excellent, Good location. Rooms are clean and comfortable.

Great breakfast - real eggs, not powdered. Manager clearly really cares about the place and about customer experience - personally went out of his way to respond to our request for a quiet room. The facility is not new, but it does not feel worn, and is spotlessly clean. Had dinner at the attached restaurant (something we rarely do), and in this case it was great - not just a hotel restaurant, but clearly a favorite with locals, with a great raw bar and fantastic ribs. Only minus - the walls are not as sound-proofed as one would wish, although that was not a problem for us (quiet neighbors).

Management definitely went above and beyond the call to make our stay pleasant, especially by honoring our request for rooms away from the highway. They also gave us a free room upgrade. Room was very clean, spacious and well furnished with excellent shower and Jacuzzi. Bed was very comfortable for us. Easy highway access was also a plus. Only minus was thin walls - if folks in the neighboring room(s) are noisy it could be a long night. All in all a very good stay compared to other hotels at this price point. Restaurant was also good food and good value, especially appreciated as many of the dining options in Ramsey are on the pricey side.

The lady who was in charge of breakfast in the morning of 10/25/2015 did a woderful job! Very friendly, kept everything clean, and refilled the items to the trays very fast. Thank you for that! However, the walls are paper thin and we could hear people in other rooms next to us. There was a huge semi truck outside our window that kept on running all night long which created a lot of noise. Upon arrival the heavy front door slammed me in the back and hit my backpack which contained the laptop. I complained to the front desk person and he didn't react and did not even apologize. The wall lamp outlets did not work. The TV remote was slow to react and changing channels was problematic. The wifi was slow in the evening.

Convenient location with a lot of shops and restaurants near it. Front desk person was very friendly and helpful. Hotel was clean and king size bed was comfortable. The breakfast was decent but could have been better stocked.

My family just returned from a four night stay at the Best Western Inn at Ramsey. Overall, it was a very nice stay. The room was very clean, the beds and pillows were comfortable. The free wi-fi was the best I have ever used at a hotel! The complimentary breakfast was good and had a lot of choices. The first three mornings we went to the breakfast (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) there was a very nice, hardworking woman on duty. She was on top of things! She refilled everything as soon as it was empty, brought my daughter more juice when she heard her ask me for more and was extremely friendly. Monday morning must have been her day off because there was a different woman working and the breakfast was not well tended. The coffee was empty, the potatoes ran out and it was just not as well run as the previous mornings. Overall though our stay was very nice and I would not hesitate to stay there again.

Upon arrival I was kindly greeted by a very pleasant young lady at the desk. She was very attentive to me and told me everything the hotel had to offer from where to park to what time breakfast will be served until. When I got to the rooms they were pretty spacious and very clean. The hallways however are fairly uneven and have unexpected slopes in them. I called down to the front desk because I needed extra towels and she told me no problem and within 2 minutes there was a knock on the door and there she was with the towels. She was the only one working that night I believe. My kids and I had a good night sleep and woke up and went to the breakfast area which was held in the restaurant. The breakfast was absolutely amazing they had scrambled eggs, home fries, waffles, yogurt and so much more. The breakfast selection was very pleasing . When it was time to checkout I came in contact with the same young lady again I believe her name was Jodley. Even after her very long shift she was still smiling and even made a couple jokes about it. My overall experience was superb my only complaint was the floor levels.

Bed awful. Would have slept better in the car. Left trip early and commuted rather than stay another night. I would compare the bed to a pile of newspapers. Bathroom was very slanted. Breakfast was ok - did the job. Hotel also had an odd smell to it.

My boyfriend and I stay at this hotel regularly as a get-away after a long week of work. Staff is great. Check-in is fast & easy. Rooms are clean & quiet. Excellent free breakfast. Free coffee and tea in lobby all day. Biggie's restaurant & bar very relaxing, with nice outdoor patio area, weather permitting. Large parking lot. Very close t o stores and other restaurants and nearby Starbucks!Alex, the Manager has been super accommodating. Would highly recommend if you're in the area.

This hotel should be demolished and rebuilt. The floor are out of level by 4 inches across the width of a bed room. The doors have gaps at the top where they don't fit correctly. It is hard to understand how they can remain open with such compromised structures.

The beds were great !! The staff was great !!! The fruit was fresh ( witch is a big thing with me ) Every thing about this place was great Except no elevator I know it's a older building ( that has a great feel ) but a elevator really is a most have They even had a great breakfast ( and let's face it that's hard to find any more ) it's at a place called biggies next door that's more of a " bar and grill " type thing ( personal opinion not kid friendly more of adults only type thing ) biggies is not part of BW but I would not recommend the dinner there but the breakfast was good :) Hope this helps happy travels

Aside from some tricky traffic patterns to get to the hotel, I was quite happy with my stay there and overall pleased with the friendliness of the staff, the location, the amenities, and the quality and condition of the rooms. The hotel seems pretty much up to date and is very clean and serviceable inside. The front desk staff was helpful and even went as far as ensuring my stay was included on my BW account. Probably the highlight of the stay was the breakfast...actually cooked in the attached restaurant rather than someone in back whipping up dried eggs! No complaints there! The only thing that should be noted (and it's not a negative) is that the hallway floors are not level. It might be one of the most bizarre things I've come across in a hotel. There's nothing wrong with them that would directly affect one's stay, but still...it's just strange to see a dip in a floor! Also, it's not written anywhere that I can find, but the restaurant next door will deliver to your room. Their food was quite good (typical pub-esque food) but I walked over there to pick it up and they informed me that they deliver. That would have been good to have known, but it wasn't a bad walk through the hotel. Overall, I was happy with my stay and would stay there again!
