Honestly, it was not a good experience because it was the worst Courtyard in which I have ever stayed. I usually choose Courtyard by Marriot because they the have the perfect balance between amenities and price. This one, however, not so much. I checked-in right at check-in time, so many rooms had to be available. I was given a room on the third floor right in front of the elevator. I had a "lovely" view of a fast food chicken restaurant. The next morning at 7:00 a.m., someone opened the door to my room, and except for the latch on the door, would have come right on in. I reported it, and asked to change rooms. This time I was given a room on the second floor (even closer to the fast food restaurant), that smelled like paint and laquer. All in all, it was not a good experience, and I really expected more considering it is adjacent to one of the finest universities in the world.
Nice in New Haven

Everything went smoothly, from check-in to check-out. Within walking distance of Admissions Office at Yale (maybe six blocks or so), so met out purposes nicely. Don't expect Starbucks in nearby Barnes & Noble to be open for breakfast; ate at Educated Burgher instead and that was fine substitute with bit more local flavor, so to speak. Don't have wireless, but ethernet worked well with my laptop.
