• Sharon (9/5): I will be back! - I love the location of Rutgers Inn. Its close to coffee shops and great restaurants. I also love the architecture of the hotel! I think that checkout should be an hour later!
• Olga (8/5): -
• Zhihong (6/5): Fine - Location Too cold
• Rajat (10/5): -
• Andrea (8/5): - Great people, nice room and good location. Would stay again. No restaurant or food close by or onsite. Early check in not allowed in a mostly empty hotel.
• TravelerofNJ (10/5): A Basic, yet Wonderful Hotel in the Heart of Rutgers University New Brunswick Campus - Stayed in the month of March to help my son - a junior at Rutgers University in business, who had a medical emergency. We have been staying at this inn for the past 6-7 years and can really appreciate this diamond in the rough. It's a very basic hotel, must have been a dormitory in the distant past. Three floors of rooms - either two double beds or one queen bed configuration. The management and staff were extremely helpful and accommodating in helping us nurse our son back to health after his surgery - broken leg that required surgery to implant a rod and pins. Place is quiet, free parking very close to door, and central to the campuses of New Brunswick and near Piscataway campus. Plenty of restaurants for take-out nearby. Price is extremely affordable, no breakfast, but you can get a Keurig Coffee Pod and make a cup of custom coffee. Nothing within walking distance, but close drive (5-10 min) to a variety of bagel shops and other food stores, grocery, Target, etc. and straight shot back to the Inn without being stuck in heavy commuter traffic. Would recommend this hotel if you have a student or reason to visit Rutgers University, or are in the New Brunswick area, and don't need all the amenities.

• Michael (8/5): We we go back anytime we're in the area - Everything was good about this property. The rooms are clean. The staff was excellent. The location was easy to get to with plenty of parking. They have a coffee pot in the room, but no breakfast while I was there.
• Kristina (8/5): -
• John (10/5): Great - All Nothing.
• Sarah (5/5): For the price, it was fine, I would only stay here if all the other hotels in the area were booked - The price was very affordable for the area, the front desk was very kind and welcoming The beds were uncomfortable, the heater and fridge were crazy loud and annoying, the temp in the room was very difficult to controll, school hadnt started yet and there was literally no place to eat nearby which made getting breakfast in the morning really difficult, I wish I would have been informated that before I went so I could have brought groceries.

• Michael (7/5): Ok - the room and building were for the most part clean, except for the clump of hair on the floor in the bathroom. The temperature of the room was not able to be adjusted. The room was too hot to sleep comfortably in. I tried to put the fan on to blow cool air, but it would only blow hot air. Even when I adjusted the dial to cool. also the wifi did not work for a majority of the evening. Had to use my hotspot on my phone. Not a good situation.
• ChasDC (10/5): Hidden Gem - I love to stay at the RU Inn and Conference center when visiting my son at Rutgers. The have a great alumni rate and they are conveniently located on the Cook/Douglass campus with great places for a scenic and convenient jog or walk.

• Maryann (7/5): Clean and great location and affordable but.... - Cleanliness /location That I had to buy a keurig pod if I wanted coffee. I completely understand as far as not having breakfast to keep the cost of the hotel affordable but they could have at least offered free coffee. Also had leftovers from a very expensive meal the night before . Placed in refrigerator. Next morning the food was warm and ruined. Light worked and it was plugged in. When I told staff.. she was pretty much like oh well.. I'll let someone know about the refrigerator. Lots of good it did for me as I was checking out!

They went above and beyond to help us find public pickelball courts as university did not have any PB facilities open. Rooms spotless. All staff friendly and always asking if they could help with anything. No free breakfast but easy trade for cost savings, safe free parking on site and perfect location to quick access anywhere in New Brunswick. Thank you!! We will be back!

• Terry and Mike (6/5): - For the price, we took it. Was convenient to all highways we needed to get to. Really, the room was a converted dorm room. It served it's purpose for our night's stay. Could've used another pillow on bed. Shower pressure was very weak in 214 and bathroom was very small with limited counter space. We would recommend and would stay again.

• odedl2019 (10/5): Great Place - I stay at the Inn repeatedly for many years when visiting RU. Excellent location near Cook campus and short drive to Busch campus. I enjoy the warm welcome and ambiance that always makes me feel comfortable. My family when joining me are always keen to stay at the Inn. In addition, the view from my room is truly amazing (see picture) and at times deer and more animals are passing by or grazing. I'll be back!

• Boros (9/5): Superb - Location excellent, Quiet surroundings, Room clean and comfortable although a little small, but for my purposes (a good night's sleep), it was very good. People talking in the corridors were obviously unaware that voices carry and that there may be others on the floor. Otherwise it is a great venue.
