Dissecting Marriott Hotels One Business Trip At A Time

In A College Town

I couldn’t find my usual accommodations near Kennett Square, PA so I find myself in a new Marriott. This week its the Courtyard Newark - University of Delaware.

This Courtyard is very nice. Looks and feels new. Free coffee in the very large lobby just past the registration desk.

When I booked I didn’t realize that this would literally be right no campus. I immediately had visions of the film Animal House as I pulled up. Noise is a nightmare for this business traveler. Thankfully things appear to be quiet.

Getting here was a real pain from Kennett Square. No real direct routes from that way. Somehow I missed one turn and I was in farm country. I’ll surely be studying the online map before setting off back to my client tomorrow morning.
