The hotel is located off of a highway in Linda rural NJ, and there are no other restaurants or amenities next to it. The hotel itself does not have a restaurant, but does offer free breakfast. Food delivery apps choices are limited. They have a nice patio area where you can bring your own items to grill. We had a suite with a stove and refrigerator and a pull-out bed, but while things seemed new-ish, everything was way too cramped for the small space. But it was clean and overall comfortable, and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The kids enjoyed the pool while there.

I actually forgot my own shampoo/conditioner and soap, but I wouldn't hesitate to use these again. In fact, since I may be traveling back to this hotel, I wouldn't even bother bringing my own. Might as well save some space in the luggage. It was great to have a little Starbucks in the lobby, it's not what you'd expect from a normal Starbucks, but it was the same coffee and they had a mini of the same food products. I enjoyed the avocado toast and a colleague of mine ordered the breakfast burrito. We both enjoyed them. And the staff that managed this area was extremely friendly. In the evenings, I didn't notice if they served food, but we did stop and share a pint before calling it for the night. Many other travelers used it to hang out and catch up, we even saw some people bring their own board games. The only issue I had during the entire stay was apparently I had the only room with a tree branch that proceeded to scrape against the window and cause a horrible sound inside. It would've been nice if somebody would've come to check it out rather than giving me the only option of packing up my belongings and moving them to a new room, I was too tired and not interested in doing that, so I ended up sucking it up. Hopefully they resolve this for the next person, but it looks to me like this overgrowth has been there for a little while.

The planners, Erin and Starr, were so professional and concerned about the needs of us which was so great that we got in touch with the best vendors that literally went out of their way. The caterer Jeffrey Miller Hospitality impressed us and our guests by their splendid professionalism and outstanding cuisine. With prompt service to paying little to no attention to special dietary needs, their staff made sure that you got the best, and the best was served with charm (and no doubt, with a tip or two). Our guests can rave all over the wonderful food and perfect appearance! The florist, Perkasie Florist shocked with the amazing sets that suited the theme precisely. In addition to their luxurious flower arrangements, their crew was extremely accommodating, and came to work very early to fix and set up and was very able to compromise and make changes to their arrangements last minute and kept everything stress free. Asya Photography our photographer was easygoing, polite, and discrete all though out the day and she took breathtaking photographs based upon which our actual story is manifested. They made group photos run easily and they managed to make people natural and happy and it actually comes out of the photos (natural looking and happy faces). Inn Keeper Marina was absolute treasure, she was endlessly considerate and brilliantly welcoming, and as a result, the weekend was a great experience with no one feeling unloved or unwelcome. In general, professionism, reliability and true care of all vendors recommended and organized by Erin and Starr make it a smooth and blissful experience with our friends and family. We could not ask anything better organizing our special day: the team and the venue were too good!

DO NOT STAY HERE…read more This hotel used to be the Holiday Inn, Clinton. It was a decent hotel, nothing off the top fancy but clean and accommodating. The hotel is now called Liyo and is a disaster, please look at the recent photos before booking at this hotel. We booked on BringFido.com and the images that are advertised on their site as well as the images on the Liyo site are seriously out of date. Let's start with windows boarded up, caution tape throughout the parking lot and inside the hotel. Water damage to the carpets, both in the hallways and in the rooms. Incomplete construction, cargo containers in the parking lot, scrap metal from the hotel stacked up in a pile outside. A broken elevator. Mold in every bathroom, (we looked at three rooms). The last room we looked at was over the pool and reeked of chlorine and chlorine gas, to the point that we had sore throats. This place needs to be condemned and is unfit for occupancy.

This is now called the Liyo Inn (which may be included in with the Holiday Inn family or some other…read moregiant hotel chain corporation). But here is the low down. There was lots of free parking, but nothing right near the door as the parking lot is off to the side. The upper parking lot looked scary as it had a few abandon tailor containers. The out side dining area in the front looked appealing (though being winter, the area was not open to use). The entry way was clean , modern and welcoming (a large modern beautiful chandelier was hanging from above). Check in was easy and staff generally nice. The rugs in some hall ways were newer but buckled up in area, and rippled. Some roof areas we looked down upon had fake grass carpeting but it was all torn up in chunks and looked hideous (they need to get up there and just pull it all off!). The room was nice, comfortable, clean, and easy to regulate the heat. The interior was updated too. The view was nice too of trees and a hill of homes in the distance. The bed was very plush and made for a good nights sleep. It was very quiet all night as well. The bath room was clean and had updated features too. However, the little shelves in the shower just ruined the whole make over of that area. They were installed or re-installed with some yellow glue that was not cleaned up properly and looked like a mess on the shower walls. At first I thought it was a ton of mold (but thank gosh it wasn't! See photo). The pool on the 2nd floor was enjoyable. It was a salt water pool and the temperature was perfect. They had plenty of clean towels to use at the pool site too, but they were rather small. The area around it was general set up well (looked like a good party area) and for the most part clean. However, there were areas that were chipping, pealing, and in need of some repairs. The live plants around the area looked like they had never been watered and were bunched away in a corner. In addition, some super large dirt filled planters were just filled with dirt and no plants (they could at least place some fake ones in them and not have to worry about watering!!). There were other activities to do in the pool area too (pool tables, a digital juke box and an electronic game). However, the game was turned off, juke box wouldn't play (even though it was on), and the pool table was missing some balls. The worst part was that the lights above the pool tables hadn't been cleaned in a very long time (see photo), gross! The bar on the first floor was nice, not too noisy and a friendly employee working there. In the morning we had a difficult time at the breakfast area attempting to get spoons to eat with. Had to go to the front desk finally to ask for some. The free breakfast was minimal but fine (cold cereal, stale English Muffins, yogarts, apples, OJ). Check out was easy too. However, later on when I read the receipt, it was a different price than what I reserved the room for on line. Cheaper, but still not what I booked it for. But after I checked my charge card statement I saw that they did charge me the higher rate! Just waiting to see if they ALSO charged me a second time on this months charge card bill. We shall see.

The craft cocktail program is on-point, with delicious cocktails like the Pecan Old-Fashioned, and the "Full Monte" served up by friendly and attentive bartenders.

My favorite live music act is the jazz ensemble that plays Brazilian bossa nova particularly well. The food menu - which skews towards Asian selections - is quite tasty. My one constructive criticism - the chef needs to add more tofu to the coconut - curry entree. Usually there's just a couple of small pieces.

Minimized exposure to others versus staying with family or certainly a hotel chain. The owner Marsha was clearly prepared with COVID precautions.

Everything seems well thought out for making guests comfortable with snacks, coffee, sodas, cookies, available at all times. The house is quite large and with the barn also accessible, there's no issue finding a quiet spot for reading or even listening to music with a glass of wine using the Sonos music system (even available in the barn!). This would be perfect for a family to rent out the whole home. Going stir crazy due to pandemic concerns? This is a great way to change your view safely.

The rooms were very comfortable--which is saying something in the middle of a 0 degree winter night--and we were impressed by the renovations throughout the inn.

(The oat milk-based French toast and frittata with red peppers and artichokes were really tasty!) We are looking forward to staying here again and recommending to friends and family. It is just under 8 miles away from downtown Chester.

I booked a room on Priceline. I had the Hampton confirmation number, the Priceline confirmation…read morenumber, and proof of charge to my credit card. When I checked in Saturday night after a very long travel day at 12 midnight, the night front desk attendant could see my reservation in the system but he said it wasn't confirmed and my card was declined. I showed him proof of the confirmation numbers and the credit card's successful charge, and he still would not honor my reservation. He asked for the card I used to make the reservation and then said he needed it for incidentals. I gave it to him and he swiped it, then he gave me a room key. The next morning after I checkout out, I got a text message from my credit card company asking me if I authorized a second charge for Hampton Inn. He used the card swipe to charge me a second time for the room rate. I called Priceline and after 25 minutes, they said they contacted Hampton and they would look into it. Then Priceline asked me to email them all the documentation, and I instead just disputed the charge with my cc company. I did not authorize this night front desk attendant to charge me for a room I already paid for; I only gave him my card for incidentals (of which there were none), and he unscrupulously charged my card. He should have just taken my information and had a manager speak to me in the morning, since I provided 3 types of proof of purchase/confirmation that the room was indeed booked and paid for. Room was fine, bed was comfortable, bathroom was recently remodeled and clean/modern. Cleaning crew was also quite loud starting at 7am, so it did disturb my sleep (despite the do not disturb sign on the doorknob) when I really needed it. The hotel rate was over $200 for the middle of NJ on a Saturday night in August so it wasn't a great value to begin with. Just didn't have a good transactional experience with my reservation at the front desk, and I should never have been charged a second time and certainly not without my consent or authorization. Thus I can't give more than a single star.

I've had their breakfast. It's OK. The last two stays had a couple of issues, the heating wasn't working the greatest the first night. Kind of hit or miss. My 2nd stay, however, I got to the room and it had clearly only been partially cleaned. The bed was clean. The shower/toiler was clean. However, there was leftover food in the mini fridge, there was a used coffee cup, partially full, on the desk and another on the bathroom counter. In the bathroom, although it had generally been cleaned, there were also two dirty washcloths in the sink. I had gotten in late and honestly did not feel like dealing with anything so threw away the things that needed thrown away and called it a night. It's convenient and it is what it is. The beds are incredibly comfortable, it's not noisy, and it's very convenient if you need to be in the Flemington area. It's also not necessarily the cleanest or best maintained hotel. Would I stay here again? Yes. Would I recommend it? Yes, but don't pay too much, if the rates are high, go somewhere else.
