We had a wonderful weekend at the Carleton. The staff were very friendly and the room was beautiful. Nice quiet area and unique shopping within walking distance. The restaurants on site were awesome. La Notte was the perfect Italian experience ~ from the impeccable menu and perfect music to the memorable visit with the very knowledgeable chef, Giovanni. Poor Phil’s was great as well with a very pleasant staff. Overall a fantastic weekend~We will be back for sure👍👍

Perfect for my solo trip

Everything was exactly as advertised. I stayed in one of the "motel rooms" which is off of a courtyard and was really quiet. My shower drain was a little slow but maintenence came out and fixed it as soon as i brought it to someones attention.

The Egg Harbor restaurant was the savior!! The hotel itself was dirty, the coffee maker in the room actually fusty !!! Rooms fo not have convenient cell phone charger plug points. There is no restaurant or breakfast service. The view from hotel windows is a back dirty alley!! The hotel felt like it belonged in an Agatha Christie murder mystery. Vintage feel. Which was the most appealing part
