The room was very clean, the robes and espresso machine are a nice extra. The complimentary continental breakfast is nothing special. Actually, has little to offer. The Salt line restaurant has a limited menu as well. The employees we dealt with at arrival and check out were exceptional. Very friendly, helpful, and yet professional.

Property at the edge of Vassar College. Clean, efficient, nice staff. Included breakfast did not satisfy my hungry 17 year old but I (his parent) thought it was lovely. Stayed during a college visit. Great for a night.
