Are the Newark and Jersey City hotels in a safe area?
We will only arrive at EWR 1 day prior to our cruise departure at Bayonne. Ideally we would like a hotel that has airport transportation from EWR and that is located in a safe area. Also we want easy transit to Midtown Manhattan to meet someone for dinner and get back to the hotel later in the evening, maybe 8-9 PM. And then get to Bayonne the next day for the cruise departure. The cruise leaves on a Wednesday, if that matters.
