We would definitely stay here again. The property is well maintained, modern, clean, quiet, 10 minute drive from downtown / Yale’s campus, free breakfast is good, indoor pool area was neat and clean. Only problem was the ice machine on the 3rd floor wasn’t working during our two night stay so we needed to go down one floor to get ice. Overall a great experience!

Although a bit outdated, the rooms were comfortable and clean and it was very quiet for a hotel right off the parkway. Hallways were warm, but rooms cooled off nice. A good "value" hotel.

Great breakfast but room not clean

I see that some reviews said the staff was friendly...that was not our case. They weren't overly rude but just not interested in providing good or great customer service. While the sheets were clean, the bathroom just wasn't. The tub had mold around the edges. The bedroom area was not clean behind end tables and bed where we needed to find an outlet. Even crumbs of food. :( The breakfast was GREAT! Super clean area and many options. We too loved the opportunity to get coffee anytime of day. We didn't need much, customer service and cleanliness, but didn't receive either.

Pros: Staff is very good. Breakfast is appealing. Cons: Carpet inside and outside the room is stinking. Need to do a deep cleaning. Mattresses are old and need to replace. Overall hotel is good for the price I paid.

If you’re looking for a more affordable option in the area, this is a good one. Free breakfast, easy access and parking, lots of restaurants close by. It’s a little dated but was clean and comfortable.

The 1st room they tried to put me in the tv wouldn’t work and the manager admitted it was a problem! Average at best. Mildew stains and damage repairs to bathroom and tub. Paint damaged on walls. Some of the staff were too busy on their phones to help me at the desk or dining area. Very poor experience at best!
