It was a regular hotel room. Calling it a "suite" is a joke. The drawers on the dresser were a hot mess. The bottom one wouldn't close (it was partially open when I got in the room) and the others were very difficult to open and close. The air conditioning in the hotel room as well as a friend's room wasn't working well at all. No body wash, just a bar of soap. The lighting in the room was very poor, including the bathroom. It costs $30 to valet your car. They said they would send a link so you could request your car before you come down from your room. Never received it. It took 25 minutes to get my vehicle. Other guests were super annoyed about how long they had to wait. AND...I wasn't charged $30, but additional fee for...who knows. Really deceptive advertising. It was a $250 hotel room, which was super overpriced for what I got. I wouldn't stay here again.

We always enjoy our stays at the Heldrich Hotel. Check in was efficient and very welcoming. A couple of things: The sheer part of the curtain was shredded. It should be replaced. The door lock did not close. Why was there no channel for looking at one's account, hotel information or in room checkout function? Why is it the hotel's policy to charge a customer when one cancels a stay, especially when it is done a month ago? In addition, I immediately rebooked our stay; adding an extra night for our stay. I'm grateful that Expedia gave me the refund. We've always stayed at the Heldrich when we visit New Brunswick for a concert at the State Theater across the street. As much as we like the hotel, the nearby theater and restaurants, we might consider staying elsewhere in the future. It'll be the hotel's loss of two good customers. Lastly, it might not be the hotel's responsibility, but we saw more homeless people in the park; some of them approached us for money entering and leaving the hotel.

I like this place. Very comfortable and near a lot of things downtown. The service for restaurant food wasn’t accessible at the time that it was scheduled which sucked. Also the front desk wasn’t as warm and welcoming upon arrival but that’s not much of a setback. They also let me check in early which was great!

First off what a nightmare of a place. I would not recommend anyone to stay here. The shower is non functional the room is dirty. Maintenance never came to fix the shower when called. It’s 11:07pm and no one has showed up. You have to pay 25 dollars for a microwave to heat up the raw burger that was made in Christoper’s Restaurant. Whatever you do stay somewhere else.

The gym was really disappointing. Old, incomplete and in disrepair. I pointed this out to a manager who said someone would be up. They never came while I was. The rest of the hotel does not really live up to the hotels implied quality- very average at best.
