Perfect quiet easy access location for trip wants & needs in Groton Mystic Stonington New London. Thrilled all nonsmoking ! Interior recently updated. Quiet frig & ac/heat - awesome 'dry` setting for when temp was perfect just a little humid. Useful microwave. Fast easy checkin. Accommodated desired room location
Not a dislike but a hairdryer would've been useful. It is not listed in room writeup, so people, may miss it not being in the list. I don't mind bringing my travel dryer I just wasn't thinking to as I usually air dry my hair

The price was very inexpensive. The location was very good, close to the Groton Submarine base, and not far from the Mystic and New London attractions as well as the casinos. Basic room was clean and comfortable with a microwave and a small but full sized refrigerator with a freezer. While the sign at the desk said they were sold out the room was quiet and we did not hear any other neighbors. Overall GREAT VALUE and a good location. Family run. Free coffee and Tea in morning.

The property's location played a crucial role in my decision-making process. Its proximity to various stores, restaurants, and the highway greatly influenced my choice. Considering that I visit this town 3 to 4 times a year, I have always been satisfied with the exceptional service provided by the staff here.
We would like to inform you that the hotel is currently undergoing a period of renovation due to the change in management. As anticipated, construction activities were taking place during your stay. However, it is worth mentioning that I did not encounter any unforeseen issue, except for the room feeling somewhat stuffy when the heat was turned on. This made it slightly difficult to breathe. I would recommend bringing a portable humidifier with you to enhance your comfort until the completion of the hotel's reconstruction. Apart from this minor inconvenience, I must emphasize that the hotel offers an excellent value for the price, considering its convenient location near both casinos.

Me and my wife stay in this hotel under the old management and it was a bad experience. We book this time like the last time all the hotel near foxwoods was full. This time it was great the room great the bed was comfortable and the room had a microwave and a full size refrigerator the next time we go to foxwoods we are staying here also the price was very good. The new management and the staff was very friendly. We traveled with another couple and they where very pleases. Also the rooms had full lighting.

It's a good location. It's clean. It has a washer/dryer, which is very convenient.
I didn't like the fact that I was staying in this hotel for over a month. I asked if I could leave my stuff in the room and I'd come back and pay @2. They said no. So they'd rather make me take my stuff out of the room. Then they have to clean the room. Just for me to come back at 2. Check in isn't until 3 anyways. So that was very inconvenient!

Friendly Staff, very close to stores and restaurants. Had a full fridge/freezer. Both washer and dryer, no curfews for leaving. Comfortable beds, adjustable A.C. full bathroom.
There was a weird stain on top one of the comforters, and black hair balls in the bathroom. But everything else looked nice and tidy.

The staff was kind and welcoming. The room was beautiful and clean as well as spacious. It had a big refrigerator and a microwave, which was really nice, and a good amount of towels also it had a great amount of lighting. The bed was really comfortable and everything was brand new. The hotel itself was located in a peaceful location, which I really liked. I would definitely be coming back !

The staff was very friendly and nice. I loved the updated rooms and the protective plastic on the mattresses. Close to shops and food. Also a beach not to far away. Overall my family and I enjoyed our stay. We would definitely stay again.
Floors could've been mopped better, wasn't able to bring my cooking supplies in but I guess other guest ruined that for people I'm not sure.

The room was a good size and the ac/heat unit was easy to use. The bedding was clean and the room was in good shape. Microwave and fridge were convenient
The room smelled like cigarette smoke. It seemed to be coming from the heater so shutting it off helped but the smell does linger. The front desk was aware of it and kind when I called to report it.
