A Solid Value

7/10. This hotel is a little beat up and outdated but the location is amazing (across the street from Olde Mystic Village) and the beds are very comfortable, at least mine was, and I slept very well here. The microwave and fridge were very convenient. Being extremely affordable, I will stay here again when visiting the Mystic area.

DIRTY SMELLS AND GROSS

It was the MOST DISTGUSTING PLACE IVE EVER STAYED! the rug was wet and the room smelled like wet dog. The room was dirty and gross I felt gross after showering. I tried to switch hotels but hotels.com was useless and could do nothing I’ve used hotels.com for years but I will be telling EVERYONE I know to not use them. I paid $338 to stay at a roach motel it was so awful the tv was tiny and the floor was sticky and rug had a huge hole and my boyfriend hurt his foot on the metal under the rug it ruined our whole night away. Don’t stay here it’s awful.
