Travel tips

A car is the most practical way to stay here, since major nearby attractions—Foxwoods, Misquamicut State Beach, and Mystic—are all several miles away. If you’re planning visits to Mystic Seaport Museum or Mystic Aquarium, expect a drive of roughly 15–17 km each way. Given the mixed public rating (2.9/5 from 91 reviews), consider confirming key basics (such as room condition and internet availability) at check-in.

What guests say

Reviews commonly mention low prices and value versus staying closer to Foxwoods, with some guests reporting clean rooms. However, recurring negatives focus on strong odors (including musty/moldy smells), cleanliness and overall room condition, and complaints about small rooms. Some guests also describe maintenance or functionality issues (such as shower problems) and inconsistent or unavailable internet despite Wi‑Fi being advertised. The overall tone suggests an inexpensive option with uneven upkeep and guest experience.
