Comfortable bed, decent breakfast, easy access to the University of Delaware. However, the rooms need major updating, with very old cabinets, carpets, furniture, etc. Fortunately, everything worked properly in my room, and the bed was comfortable despite obvious older parts throughout the rest of the unit.

The hotel was ok, but my son and I have severe allergies to fragrance and the facility sprays fragrance in their lobby and elevator. We asked them to stop the spray while we were at the hotel, but they were unable to change this. Having fragrance sprayed on all of our luggage when we used the elevator to get to our room, created challenges throughout our stay as our belongings all had fragrance on them. The hotel is reasonable if you don't have a fragrance allergy. I would avoid it if you are sensitive to fragrance.

The room is adequate, but nothing out of the ordinary. Fairly clean, but in need of some updates. Kitchen is well stocked with plates, glasses, utensils, etc… The breakfast was better than when we stayed a year ago, more options. I reserved a King room but we were placed in a Double.
