Quaint converted Home/Inn

We booked a single night as we had a wedding nearby. Quickly we realized our lock didn’t work and after texting our contact Heather, she sent a handyman who came right away and fixed it. Could use a full length mirror as the room is big with some dead spaces, so it’ll fit. Had a microwave & mini fridge and some nice views.

Would recommend

The room was very nice. The bed was comfortable, shower was roomy, and the property was gorgeous. We were the only ones staying at the time, so it was very quiet. The location is incredibly convenient to the mystic village and downtown.

Stay was overall very good. Only 10 minutes from the main street in Mystic, room was clean, huge and the bed was very comfortable. Our only complaint was that the whole place smelled like mothballs and the handsoap had been watered down instead of being replaced with liquid soap. The mothball smell wasnt noticeable after 15 minutes, so it wasn't too bad. I'd also suggest having a sign at the road. I went down the wrong driveway initially.

Unfortunately, there’s no in person check in, no tour of the site nor your rooms. You are given a code to the lock and are on your own to acquaint yourself with the site. The house is very nice, beautiful rooms and grounds however, there’s a strong smell of either moth ball type odor or a very strong industrial cleaner solution odor. It’s takes a bit of getting used to. Cute kitchenette with coffee and tea, microwave and fridge. Table and stools. The place is cozy and comfortable. If I could take away the odd odor of whatever it is my family and I are smelling, I’d rate this excellent and 5 stars

Cute Place Marred by Foul Smelling Water and smell

I don't usually write reviews like this, but I feel it's important to provide honest feedback. One key point to note is that we stayed in what was essentially a basement suite, which should be clearly mentioned in the listing. Positives: - Spacious: Our suite was incredibly roomy, featuring two bedrooms, a dedicated bathroom, and a small dining area. - The Owner: Heather was incredibly sweet and always quick to answer all our questions. - Location: About a 10-minute drive to the downtown area with easy access to ride-sharing. - Price: Much more affordable than hotels in the area. - Toiletries: Provided disposable makeup wipes and a makeup remover towel. Negatives: - Foul-Smelling Water: My biggest issue was the foul-smelling hot water in the sink and shower. The hotter it got, the more it intensely smelled of rotten eggs. I had read another review with similar issues but it seemed like it was a one-off, so it may be a seasonal thing? I texted Heather, and she assured me that the water had been tested recently and was safe. - Dead Bug: Upon arrival, we found a dead bug in the bathroom (photo attached). - Basement Smell: Wishing I had been told this was a basement suite, the natural mustiness you sometimes get with spaces like these started to bother me as I have allergy problems. There was a small air purifier but it wasn't enough to take care of such a big area. - A Little Dusty: While the area was generally clean, we did notice some dust buildup in crevices.

Pleasant Stay

We decided to venture to Mystic for one night this Labor Day weekend. Happened upon the Belvedere and took a chance. Price amazing, clean, quiet. Huge room and comfortable king bed. Great communication from owner re: check-in. Less than 5 minutes to downtown Mystic. This place is a cross between and hotel and B&B. If you’re looking for frills? stay downtown. Clean, quiet, affordable and comfortable? Come here.

Belvedere?

Had trouble getting in the front door initially. Host was very communicative and issue was resolved. No thermostat in either room. Both were cold especially basement room. Water in basement had rotten egg smell (soft water?) No sign identifying as the Belvedere More like an Airbnb than something on hotels.com
