The room was clean and comfortable. The only thing I noticed was that the room clearly smelled of smoke and it was supposed to be a non-smoking room or hotel. Also the hallway smelled of marijuana smoke as well. Other than those two things I would stay here again. I have stayed at this hotel multiple times and have not noticed problems like this before so maybe it was just a one time thing.

Very run down. They definitely had the temperature at the entrance put low to save money (the man at the front was wearing a winter coat). Paint chipped throughout room. Shower had rust near shower fixtures. Mat on shower ground peeling up with mold underneath. Water pressure in shower was the best ive ever experienced though. No pool towels replenished (on a saturday afternoon). Cheap stay; you get what you pay for.

We usually stay here when coming to Mystic, but this time was different. The lobby was freezing to start. The side door from the parking lot to the rooms was broken so anyone could get in. In our room, the toilet seat was broken and the shower was leaking. In the morning there was no coffee put out and to check out there was no one in sight. There was a note to leave keys in the box or you can call to have someone come. This was my go to place when we come, unfortunately we might have to look elsewhere.

A decent hotel. I stayed there for one night, and if I travel to that area again, I would definitely stay there again. The carpets and the room itself were clean, but there were someone’s fake nails in the nightstand next to the bed. The curtain was torn, and there was a cigarette butt left on the balcony. Overall, the room was nice and you feel safe there. They said there would be coffee in the morning, but it wasn’t available, so I went to a diner less than a minute’s walk away, where hotel guests receive a 10% discount. Everything you might need is nearby.

Front desk was never manned any time we stopped by. No coffee or tea in lobby as advertised. Our room was frigid since no one had turned the heat on. It took 18 hours for the heat to take the chill off the room. We had 2 sinks in separate locations and a tub/ shower combo . We were given 1 tiny bar of soap to use for all. We will not return to this hotel.
