Modern, clean, super friendly
Really enjoyable stay at The Blake. Staff were super friendly, hotel is clean, modern, well designed. The rooms are really spacious and the beds/pillows extremely comfortable.
To finish it off, the sun was shining, the rooftop bar/restaurant was very much appreciated, serving very good food and drink.
You can see why The Blake scores so highly.

Very impressed with the enormous and well furnished lobby, check in was fast and our room was spacious, clean and very well equipped with kitchenette. Great location, short walk to Yale University and restaurants in one direction and Yale NH Hospital in the other. Just wish the lobby restaurant was open for breakfast as only poor alternative choices.
