Omni New Haven Hotel at Yale
My wife had a procedure at Yale New Haven and I only one night. It was very convenient and pleasant. I only used the room. Not the bar or restaurant.

The Study at Yale
Shower was cold regardless of wait time. Further valet failed to charge car despite assurance that would happen. Staff credited the valet charge but that hardly helped the problem.
