“Nice property”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 October 2011

We spent three days here in one of the two bedroom suites. Overall it was better than average. The living room in these units is quite small but it was adequate for our needs. The kitchen was well stocked and the TV's got a pretty good selection of channels.

The breakfast was good but we were a little disconcerted by seeing the staff descend on the buffet at exactly 9:30am. If we were not finished, we would have had to fight our way through them which is less than ideal. I am all for allowing the staff to eat but they should have to wait until the guests have cleared out.

The managers reception on both evenings it was offer was a very pleasant surprise. Better than expected from previous Residence Inn stays. I was disappointed by the fact that there was only an outdoor pool and spa.

The staff was exceptionally nice here. Very helpful and ready to answer questions.

I usually prefer the style of Residence Inn with interior corridors and indoor amenities but this is a very nice place, well located for Wilmington, New Castle and of course Newark. There are restaurants and stores close by.

Would I stay again? Yes if I needed the two bedroom, maybe not if I needed only one bedroom. But just because I like an indoor hot tub and indoor rooms, a very personal choice. The rooms here are clean and comfortable and the property well maintained.

Room Tip: There are no bad areas here.

“Clean and Comfortable”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 October 2011

We stayed 1 night on our way by on I95. The staff were very accommodating and the room was very comfortable. The free breakfast was a little better than most.

We stayed there because it was close to univ of delaware. The hotel was nice, location good. The staff was great, giving us a free upgrade. The breakfast was pretty good too. Stay there without reservation.

“Great for a long-term stay, a bit far but not a problem with a car”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 August 2011

I lived here for 2-3 months at a time whenever I visited Delaware on business.

The first time was in 2007 when I lived there for 3 months. I rented a car so the distances were not a problem.

The rooms are extreeemely spacious -- a single bed room apartment is big enough to squeeze a dozen people (not that I tried!). The furnishing is comfortable and very nice.

The TV selection is good.

Breakfast is included in the price and is a buffet in the morning. These are quite tasty, but can be monotonous (the menu is pretty much the same week in and week out, but this is not a gourmet restaurant but a budget hotel!) though they are extremely filling.

Wireless is free.

The hotel is walking distance from the University plaza where one can get a bite to eat or shop at the supermarket. This is not upmarket, but it doesn't aim to be -- it succeeds very well for what it aims to be -- a great value for money place to stay.

The staff are very friendly and will give you a lift to a place or two if you need.

All in all I would strongly recommend this place

“Great place for a family get together”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 July 2011

We stayed just one night when we came for a wedding. The front desk staff was super nice, the lobby area was clean and featured a nice TV area and breakfast space. In the morning they have a free breakfast including potatoes, sausage, waffles, yogurt, and lots more. It was really good. They have a great pool and a few grills, so the wedding couple hosted a cookout at the hotel.

The rooms were clean and the grounds well manicured. It wasn't super fancy, but great value for the money. The only thing we wish they had was a safe in the room. But the kitchen is nice if you happen to have a lot of people coming by or you stay for a longer period.

If I visit my cousin in DE again, I would stay here again. Thanks for a nice stay!
