Great spot when visiting Yale
I was on-site for my first Master's intensive and wanted a larger space than a hotel room but close to campus. Also, my husband was traveling with me and working remotely. The location was great. Very close to campus and in a safe local neighborhood away from the area around the hospital. We will definitely stay here again. We had a rental car so I never walked to campus but it was not far.

Why they chose this property

The Winchester Repeating Arms Company Historic district is on the footsteps of Yale's campus. The former Winchester factories once produced "the gun that won the west" but are now home to a flurry of Yale affiliated biotech startups and New Haven's best coffee and brunch spot, Fussy Coffee.
