This courtyard is located ON the U-Del property, as such it can be a little tricky to find. The property is very well maintained, rooms are clean and up-to-date, breakfast is excellent. I wish they had a manager's reception though.

I combined returning my daughter to college at the University of Delaware with a little mommy time. The hotel was wonderful. big fluffy pillows, a quiet room with comfy chair, roomy bathroom and a nice little gym. Fresh fruit on the reception desk, very cheerful and helfpful staff and a fun cupcake construction site display that showed whimsy and fun. I loved the lobby and the fireplace, cozy couches, internet access (not all of us have laptops-just our kids LOL) and magazines and books to peruse.
Breakfast is cooked to order and no rushing. The coffee and tea bar in the lobby was well stocked and made coffee in the room even nicer.
My only complaint was the humming of the fridge which I solved by unplugging at night.

This is definitely my first choice when visiting UDel although it is very popular and can be full when the campus has an event.

Stayed overnight for a wedding this past weekend. The staff is courteous and always greet you upon entering the hotel. I Have to agree wuth previous posts, finding it is a little difficult when you are not familiar with the area. The rooms are typical business traveler oriented, furnishings are OK and the bed comfortable. All in all a decent hotel.

The breakfast (not included) is just OK.

We have stayed here several times since our son entered UD. Always exceptionally clean, comfortable, warm and friendly.

The only downside is that the Courtyard is the best/closest Marriott choice to UD, so be prepared to pay considerably more for the convenience. I believe they sell out often so this would be a good location for another Marriott hotel!
