Yellowing stains on the ceiling as you walk into the room, no drain plug in the bathroom sink, bath towels were sized so small looks like they were all made for children and very rough, rooms were all pretty dark (not enough lighting) and the TV was tiny. Pool area also could use some work, chairs were all broken and the lights didn’t work, only source of light at night was a mediocre spot light that makes it look like a construction site. This property has potential but the owner spent it all on the lobby and “cosmetics” of the property and not the guest experience. I’ve worked in hotels before and for almost $300 a night, you expect a little more than just “okay”, especially when staying in a place like Mystic.

You can tell this property has not been updated in more than 20 years. The bed was comfortable but the surroundings itself is ancient and tired and hasn’t been cared for properly in a long time. The only thing it has going for it is the fact that it’s close to the highway and close to the Mystic aquarium. We will not stay there again.

Check in was easy. Staff was friendly and for the most part available. Our room was not terrible but we faced the dumpsters. The shower was in need of repair, the shower curtain rod was clearly broken and water flooded the floor. Check out proved to be more difficult as staff was not available but a note was left to leave room key on counter. Not sure how that works for checking out. I followed up with a call but we shall see. Still have not gotten an email. Overall could use some updating. We did not use the pool as the hours didnt fit our schedule. the floor. tdiner.
