I'll admit up front that this hotel is a guaranteed "happy place" for me as I travel far to visit my daughter at UDel. I've stayed here about 8 times so far. That said, the hotel staff is so pleasant and welcoming. The rooms are very clean and comfortable. The crab cakes at the lobby Bistro are out of this... More

This is one of the better Courtyards I've stayed in. The new-style lobby was great, with a variety of seating areas. There was convenient access to the UD campus and downtown eateries, but the parking lot was jammed when we arrived. Enjoyed the room, with the newer Courtyard furnishings, better than usual linens, lots of tv channels, and a nice-sized... More

They had A LOT of amenities. From the Starbucks to the bar and everything in between. The lobby was packed with places to unwind. The rooms were nice and comfortable and they gave me extra feather pillows on my request. I had never seen a luggage scale and I thought that was a fabulous bonus. They also have guest laundry...

We were in UDel for a college visit and stayed at the Hospitality management school's on-site hotel, run by Marriott. The hotel is located up on a hill and is very inviting when you drive up. We walked into the lobby and were delighted to see a spacious area with several different places to sit, relax by a fire, watch... More

The customer service is what makes this hotel great, from the staff at the front desk to the wonderful personality of the gal that was working the Bistro for dinner. it really made me feel at home even though I was thousands of miles away. Food at the bistro is really tasty and reasonably priced.

I have had some bad experiences staying at hotels close to a university - vomit in the bath tub at one. But even without that extreme, they can be a little tired and worn.

Loving the new bistros options and new bar area, still more than enough choices for breakfast. Rooms large enough clean for a business stay. Gym small pool very small. Staff always friendly and helpful. Walking distance from newark high street and easy access to I95.
