I liked that it was fairly close to the Yale campus but it really did require taking an Uber at night. Just a nice and clean, simple hotel.

Its Okay.

Well, its not in the best condition on the outside. the area looked a little sketchy, but it was quiet. Clearly, they are renovating so the lobby was used as storage area for new refrigerators and microwaves. the first thing we were greeted to was a man lying on the ground outside of a vehicle, apparently so drunk he had passed out right there in the parking lot. The driver was also very intoxicated. There was another person sleeping in a car in a car in the parking lot. The room was comfortable. The bed was great and super comfy. Rooms look redone. Probably wouldn't stay here again.

Clean budget motel

It was clean and fine to sleep, but it smelled way too much like cleaner or air freshener. I had a headache. Other that that, it was what I expected.

This is a great place to stay. If they could provide breakfast or hot water, it would make the experience even better.
