We were here for our honeymoon. This hotel is AWESOME from the staff to the room, everything was perfect. I love how personable the hotel staff were to my husband and me. The general manager was very accommodating with all my requests from room decorations to late check-out. This was our first stay but definitely not our last!

I knew it was really close to the Prudential Center, but I did not realize it was directly connected to the Prudential Center via the parking garage. You can get from your room into the arena without even going outside. Perfect place to stay for any event at The Rock. Let's go Islanders!

I was here for a business trip and found the location to be very nice. It is close to 95 and not far from the UD campus and all the offering of their Main Street.

The hotel was clean, staff was friendly, slightly expensive considering other hotels in the area offer breakfast for a similar price. Next door is the red roof inn, parking lots are attached. I think they are housing homeless people there.
