The Rutgers Univ Inn & Conference Center was recently renovated and given this name.
My wife and I stayed here while settling our daughter, a new Rutgers student, into her dorm.
The place is attractively decorated, but:
the bed was too hard to sleep in,
our refrigerator was too noisy,
and, worst of all for me, the toilet seat was too close to the water level.
You may laugh, but I couldn't keep from dunking when sitting; extremely gross.
The price was a bargain, but I wouldn't want to stay here again. (My wife might.)
Also, you must pay in advance and there is no refund for cancellation or early departure.

- On the Rutgers campus. Ideal if you are visiting the campus.
- Less than $80 a night, including taxes. My room had two double beds, a refrigerator and a microwave.
- Rooms are comfortable and quiet with good internet and working desk, + a side chair.
- Not easy to find on internet, but website is stay.rutgers.edu
- Downside is that full payment is required at time of reservation
- Very helpful behind the desk

I don't know why some of the reviews are so negative. This place is in a charming old building with lovely grounds and is very quiet. It has nice, but not luxurious, rooms with all the amenities including a refrigerator/freezer. It has been fairly recently renovated, so everything is freshly painted and very clean. There's free wifi and hot drinks in the lobby. Also, several shared computers are available, but no fitness center. There is no restaurant, but accross the street is a student cafeteria with a terrific buffet breakfast for only $8. There's plenty of heat and a thermostat, so I'm not sure why one person was cold. A very large window in the room looks over trees in a park-like setting. The people at the desk are very friendly. The best is the price-only $ 79/night (including tax). Can't get a better deal in town. Very conveneinet for business at Rutgers University and the bus stop is right outside, so you don't even need a car to get around. The latter is a real plus, because parking is very restricted on the campus. The bus will also take you to the train station if you want to go to NY city.

Rooms are in bad need of renovations. Heating system is noisy, and in my room there was only one heater very far from the bathroom, so that taking a shower required quite a lot of courage. The dining room, where breakfast is served, is very cold. I happened to have a room separated by the nearby one just by a door, so the acoustic insulation was very bad. It is not the hotel's responsibility that my neighbor woke up at 6 am and turned on the radio very loudly, but a better acoustic insulation would help. One plus, if you are here for business at Rutgers, is that the location is served by the Rutgers buses, and this is no little advantage in an area where hotels are very sparse, and there is no public transportation.
