It was nice place, breakfast was great. I’m rating 4 stars only because I requested crib for my baby and was confirmed by staff several days before and I requested again during the check in but never received it and nobody communicated with me.

Booking this stay was the best decision I've made all week. My King Room was clean, had a great bed, and was an all-around perfect setup. The property is also REALLY close to a bunch of great restaurants and amenities, so if you don't want to drive more than 10 or 25 minutes for a treat, then you're in the right place. This will be be my new go-to hotel from now on, when my travel brings me to the area. 10/10 I highly recommend the Chauncey!!
