I love this hotel, it's my go-to hotel when needed, i get so upset if it's full. I love the whole setup, the all day/night coffee table, the pool and jacuzzi, fitness room and the breakfast is SO good and so many different things to eat!! I love this place, very comfy.

My First Ordeal!

I went healthy and came back with waist pain. The bed was like a raft. The sprigs in the mattress were making excessive noice as I turned on my sides on the king's bed. The carpet in the room was sticky and the couch with the stool were tainted with dirts and marks that looked like animal drool. The hair dryer in the bathroom was just decoration. It was not working and not usable. The shower was splashing everywhere. I met 4 customers at the front desk with complaints when I went to lodge mine about my unexpected mishaps in my room to the representative at the front desk. They were also complaining with similar ordeal. The Front desk person said housekeeping and the maintenance were not available. There was no bodywash but three body lotions and one shampoo. There was no conditioner. I had to get them from the front desk myself when it was time to take a shower. The food was monotonous. I will never recommend this hotel to anyone!

NOT the place to stay in Hamden!

Our hotel room did not have a window to the outside, only a window to the hallway, so we felt as if we were in a fishbowl and had to keep the blinds drawn at all times. There was obvious mold in several spots in the bathroom, and even though the entire property was allegedly smoke and marijuana free, there was a pervasive smell of marijuana in the lobby area, as well as our hallway. We will never stay here again.

Property is as well kept as possible but it’s very old and run down. Seems like homeless people are housed on bottom floor near back handicapped parking area. Key card wouldn’t open back entrance near handicap parking spot so I had to drag my luggage to the side door which had a step so I had to lift my bags.

Left at 4am when the guy in the room next to mine tried to break into my room through the door that joins the two rooms. It was not the most secure door either as it was dated and old. The noise woke me up , thank goodness, and I left in my what I was wearing. Also it was ice cold on there and so I slept with 2 pr of socks, a winter hat, 2 shirts and 2 or swear pants. Do not recommend at all. Underneath the beds looked like they hadn’t been vacuumed in many years. Just filthy. Not at all safe

We got what we paid for.....medium/low staff involvement. I actually felt the need and got a broom to sweep up the floor in front of the toaster on one morning (we were there for 7 nights). The parking was good.

A few monor repairs were needed in our room, nothing major...... Room cleaning services were fine. Great diner across the parking lot with huge menu..... a minute away from the hotel. Two or three minutes from 2 major interstates. Pretty good value. Ive been there 7 times since I moved from the area 12 years ago.

This is an old hotel with a new face, I guess. Stayed there more than ten years ago and it was pretty much unchanged inside since then. Carpet needed cleaning, clock was busted, stray wires on the floor, sink bowl was cracked and repaired with silicone. Bed was worn out. I guess for $100.00 it's what I deserved.

Heater A/C and toilets were not working properly in my assigned room, so I requested a room change, which was accomplished after some delay from staff. TV and bed were overall nice though I later discovered some (apparent) bed bug bites on myself.
