"For me, the highlight was the check-in staff and evening desk staff on June 28. They were upbeat, enthusiastic, engaging in a way that made me feel good being in this hotel. For the other two days of my stay the staff was fine, but did not equal the energy and personality of that first day. The room was spacious and fine: bed, shower, work area all good. Very quiet on third floor even though 4 young women moved in next door and street construction went on outside. I didn't hear disturbance from any of it. I didn't use the gym. There was a sign for a restaurant on the second floor, but I never found it. For some reason, I didn't ask about it. Instead I found Kung Fu Kitchen on Orange Street just a few blocks away. Highly recommended. Hotel breakfast (at extra charge) was a huge disappointment, maybe the worst I have ever found in hotels and motels around the country and the world. Consisted of a few types of breakfast sandwiches wrapped in foil dripping wet as though they had just been thawed out. Would I stay here again? Yes, certainly, hoping for that great first-day staff again. And the hotel is easily walkable for things that interest me: Yale University Art Gallery, British Art Gallery, Yale Peabody Museum. And the parking garage across the street is conveniently located and connected by an above-street walkway if you need it."
