Very nice place, cozy atmosphere and good ambiance. Great place to grab a bite to eat, take a shower, and maybe get yourself a date. Highly recommended.

I’m giving five stars for the irony that you’re actually reviewing a jail.

Went there today Jan. 19, 2020 for a 2:30pm no contact visit. Two females had a fight, one of which had a visit. Her face was bruised up by some loud mouth young lady who was the aggressor!!! When the officers popped the gate for the inmates who had visits, the loud mouth came through the gate as well. Isn't that's why officers suppose to be on duty, to prevent things like that!!?? I see citizens don't get protected in or outside of a correctional facility!!!!

You can tell the immigrants that are paid to make fake google accounts and rate places 5 stars. The staff is ghetto and unprofessional. Nobody wants to visit a jail. Families dont go there for fun.. They go to see a love one and its an awful thing to have to go through.. Please be considerate. And cordial in the least.

Unprofessional. Neither of the staff is on the same page. I live over an hour away from the jail and I wanted to know if I was on the visiting list for a loved one and I was directed to call in advance. When I did so I received extremely rude service and they ended up hanging up on me when I asked about the front desk telling me to call in.

This place is the worst. They very nasty when you asked them a question and then half the time they don't answer the phone. I will start asking for names and making further phone calls to start holding someone responsible.

1) The phone systems barely work for my husband to call my kids and I. It's been that way since he's gone in 6 months ago! Every single call that he's made to us in the past two days have been disconnected before the system even kicked on to press 1 and accept the call. It's very unnerving when you can't hear from your loved one. 2) Not that I expect much coming to this place BUT a majority of the staff is very unprofessional. Male guards wrestling around when waiting to see the person you're visiting. They also give you a huge attitude if you ask questions bc they give you all of the wrong info over the phone, if or when they even answer. Bathrooms are also disgusting.. Some of the toilets in the ladies room are even missing seats and the bathroom looks like it hasn't been cleaned in ages.

The worst place to have to go! They make you wait forever to see your loved ones. I'm out of state in supposed to get extra time 9 times out of 10 i don't get that! Co's let people they know get the extra time or go straight to thier visit and cut your time!

My dad was at this Jail for 3 months. Going there every weekend was the worst. It's a disgusting place, and so are some of the Security Guards out in the front for Window area and also Contact visit. Some are helpful while others like to have an attitude. Something a security guard should not have they make their Jail look worst than what it already is.

I added money to my loved one through the app "connect network", he never could call me because it didn't show in his account, and some of the inmates told him that the guards take the money and then play dumb when somebody make a complain or ask for the money.

Honestly, not a fan. It hurts to write this review, but I must to show my blog buddies not to rent here. After my wonderful AirBnB at the Rahway "Jail" I was ecstatic to try another place similar when I was heading around NJ. Little did I know I would be in a surprise. Staff was HORRENDOUS to me and my son. I was told that this was not a AirBnB AFTER I purchased a 3 night stay here, NO REFUND WAS GIVEN. I was thrown on the ground and called a "skanky boy" through the window bars, which gave off a "ghetto" feel which was not homey. I still gave it two stars because the people outside were really nice to me, however a little too "nice." All together I would say it's okay for a visit but not a stay.

I highly recommend the Rodizio, it was great. The room service was a little underwhelming.

Visiting someone in here can be challenging as Most of the staff are friends of inmates or friends of regular visitors, see for yourself. No matter how early you get there you can still be there for hours. You try to complain and they will just banned you from visiting so you don't wanna do that ether. Don't know if the side for immigration detainees is the same way though.

Place dirty, staff very unprofessional, no one answers the phone or they put you on hold for 30 min and then they hang on you. No one knows what's going on, there is never an answer to your questions... administration need to pay more attention of what is going on there.
