Very dirty. Lack of staff. After being switched rooms right after we checked in the second room was dirty and outdated as well. We ended up getting a refund and switching hotels all together. The website is false advertising.

God awful experience!!!

We checked in at 4 PM by 430 after using the restroom and washing our hands. The sink was clogged. We made them aware immediately we left. We came back by 8 PM. They said it was fixed. It was still not draining properly and there was black crap all over in the sink on the counters on our toothbrushes. It was disgusting. They said it would be fixed first thing in the morning at 9 AM. Are you kidding me from 4 PM on Tuesday till 9 AM on Wednesday. We can’t use our sink in our bathroom to wash our hands then the next morning it still wasn’t fixed. Staff seemed very unconcern about this. The place was dirty. The pool was cloudy at best.

Dated but clean and comfortable, food options close by, we frequented the nearby diner mostly. Enjoyed the private balcony and noise was not bad considering proximity to highway. Anything we needed for room we just asked. Clerk was having technical difficulties when we arrived and could not check us in, but was resolved while we parked and went for a bite to eat. Pool was nice after a hot day. Good central location

Great Location!

The beds and pillows are comfortable. There is ample parking. The people working at the hotel are super friendly. Shahid went above and beyond to correct a few issues I had with the room like a drain stopper and iron. This hotel is in the same parking lot as the Mystic Diner that has a great atmosphere and great food. Across the street is the Old Mystic Village shops which you can walk over to. I was planning to visit other parts of CT, but added an extra day because it was such a nice area.

This was one of the worst hotels I’ve ever stayed in. It was so dirty and dingy. So old and disgusting. The hallways look like they hadn’t been cleaned since they were put in. The hallway smells disgusting, but I think the room smelled worse. They told me they had cribs online, but when we got there, they didn’t have any. I brought two babies. The mattresses were so old, flat, and springy, that on the last night, we decided to just drive through the night to get home because we couldn’t stand the thought of sleeping on them again. Hoping someone reads this review and decides not to stay here. Go anywhere else. Also, check-in was at four. When we got there at four, they told us there were no clean rooms available. We had to wait hours, even though my two daughters were so tired and needed a place to sleep.

Doors to building or hallway were not secured allowing access to anyone walking by. (Signs posted that they would be locked between 11pm-6am) but still allows access to anyone before then. Moldy shower, wires coming out of walls, warped baseboards from shower leaking, you can feel the springs on the mattress. All around just dirty.
