Traffic Around Motel Insane:
We stayed at the Holiday Inn Cherry Hill for two days last August, August 3 and 4, right after disembarking from the Queen Mary 2 early that morning. The Holiday Inn was 87 miles south of Brooklyn first through New York traffic and then through New Jersey traffic to arrive at Cherry Hill where the traffic patterns were so bizarre that it took us over twenty minutes to find the proper entrance to the motel after finding the hotel itself. You couldn’t turn left. We had to drive many streets out of our way just to get in the correct lane. Then we learned that the back entrance to the parking lot was a one-lane road for no particular reason. Whenever we returned to the motel after eating dinner or shopping in the gargantuan Towne Place at Garden State Park and Marketplace at Garden State Park mall across the street we had to go the wrong way on the one-way street. At least no one ever saw us do it. I don’t know how else we would have gotten back to our rooms without going miles out of our way. I wouldn’t recommend the motel for this reason alone. Nor would I recommend the hotel restaurant called Red Hot and Blue that specialized in Memphis barbecue. They didn’t know how to do southern cooking, so we ate across the street at Chili’s (not in the mall but by itself). That was a much better alternative.
Tip: Stay on the ground floor. You’ll be close to the guest laundry down the hall.
