    Beautiful campus to walk in, peaceful stay. Great staff. Well designed building. Free parking. Close to airport.

  • Engine customer Sep 2026

    What's not to like? Clean, spacious rooms, helpful staff, plenty of parking. And affordable.

    This was our first time bringing the dog, and she loved the room, too. In her enthusiasm, she knocked crunchy noodles on the floor. Yikes! Thankfully, housekeeping is VERY understanding! It has been a long time since I walked a dog on campus, and it’s just as enjoyable as I remember. We didn’t have opportunity to dine there this visit, but definitely stop by Broad Table Tavern

    Morning counter person was not friendly or helpful. We wanted a copy of our bill or statement at check out. Disinterested and annoyed she kept repeating I can’t do anything for you (including telling us total charge or any incidentals) because reservations booked as a 3rd party. Instead she wanted to return standing in front of the counter on her phone. I also asked bc it was close to 100 degrees outside for some water. She said water costs $4 a bottle. For an upscale hotel her treatment and customer service was very much below average

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    The only negative was the remote control for the tv was disgusting, very sticky.

    beautiful!

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Ok hotel but expensive for what you get when they have functions. Not worth it.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Great cute little hotel, friendly staff, highly recommend!

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Staff was very helpful. The restaurant in the hotel was excellent.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Staff was very attentive and professional. The room was spacious and clean. The area had something for everyone. The lone anomoly was the restaurant. Well....a particular entree that was borderline inedible. I sat and ate some lovely appetizers. The wine was commendable. When I ordered dinner to take to the room, it almost ruined my entire stay. The early order of Samosas was heavenly. I can not, in good faith, recommend the Dan Dan Noodles. The presentation alone reeked of low quality fast food.....you know what....this is a review of the hotel. The restaurant is not indicative of how utterly amazing the hotel actually is. I highly recommend this establishment if you are in the general area. You won't find a better lodging outside of Philadelphia.

    The Inn is lovely, but I had a terrible nights sleep and experience. I went o bed around 11 and at 12:30 was awakened by loud banging in the hallway and loud voices coming through the walls. This persisted for 45 minutes before I finally called the desk. After about 15-20 additional minutes the noise finally stopped. Additionally at 5:45 am the room alarm clock - which I did not use - went off waking me again. I choose the Inn hoping for a quiet, restful night and got the opposite. I have never spent $200+ on a hotel room for an experience like this. When I shared this story with the front desk in the morning, they simply said “sorry, that was a wedding party.” When I shared my frustration, disappointment, exhaustion with the front desk and my belief that this was not a $200 experience, all I got was a simple sorry and an offer to extend check out an hour at no cost. The Inn is lovely, but my experience was the exact opposite of what I was expecting and the fact that nothing beyond a bland apology was offered for my disrupted night was not a good look. For a higher end establishment some form of compensation for a terrible night sleep- a room credit reduction, a complimentary breakfast, etc. - seemed like a minimum apology that was missed both in tone and substance. Lovely facility, disappointing experience.

    Overall the property was good, other than coffee/tea there is option available as a curtesy or for purchase. being beverages and snacks or you will need to leave the premises if the restaurant isn't open.
