"The room was on the smaller side but for the price I'm happy with it. It was definitely very clean and the staff was very friendly. The bed was comfortable with great bedding as well. Nice big TV with direct TV channel list.
I don't know if they offered breakfast because I don't leave the room until after 9am but there was some tasty coffee at 10am that I'm happy about.
Long story short I'd stay there again if the price is right. "
"Clean rooms, great breakfast, quiet and dog friendly. Lots of green space to walk a dog around. It’s winter, but the pool area looked fun and inviting…even in the snow! :)"
"The hotel is a fantastic downtown option within walking distance of many great dining options, Rutgers, and the train station. We found the room cozy and clean, and the hotel decor felt welcoming. The staff was nice, especially in the restaurant. We enjoyed a nice holiday weekend stay. Our only complaint related to parking. It would be nice to have more convenient options for parking, but we understand the limitations given location. Honestly, we greatly enjoyed our stay and the more unique hotel experience, so we’ll likely return to visit our child at Rutgers."
