College trip time for me. We are visiting Wesleyan on Saturday and Fairfield on Sunday. Coming from the Boston area. We play to stay over Saturday night and I thought a place in New Haven, maybe near Yale, would be a fun idea and would let my daughter experience another college campus and surrounding area, even if we didn't visit.
Looking online and I don't see any great looking hotel options. The Courtyard Marriott seems close, but reviews say it is very noisy and not in a great area on Whalley Ave.
I haven't spent any time in New Haven in more than 20 years. I'd like to be able to walk around Yale, get some pizza, maybe stop by a bar with my wife. We will have a car, so could drive to Modern (never had it). I'm more concerned with the area immediately around the hotel. I don't even remember of the bar we used to go to that had Yards.
