Very affordable quality stay
Spacious, super clean, and functional suites. The staff is super diligent and friendly. The property is kept very well, there is an ample back yard with tables and benches, dog potty supplies. This area is super cozy and lit up at night. The bed and linens were SUPER nice and comfortable. There is very good lighting in the room all over and the A/C worked perfectly. We are so happy we decided to stay here.

Pier Blue for Two
It was a decent, reasonably-priced room. Room + lobby smelled slightly of cigarette smoke. Perhaps an air cleaner or deodorizer would help to clear the old, stale air odor.

A little gem.
The hotel is lovely. By their own admission the owners have a notice saying excuse us whilst we renovate. The lodge was fine, we didn’t really notice it wanted much done. The car park was plenty, the room was spacious and comfy. Great views out the back. Convenient for the area, we really liked it.

Needs Updating.
Hotel is a very tired one (ie door key had to redone three times in one day; toilet had constant water dribble that couldn’t be stopped; bathtub was very stained; bed sheets seemed cheap as they made us sweet terribly while sleeping). although manager was friendly and helpful.

Not bad
The location was great- cute town. The room was clean and pretty basic. Beds could have been more comfy. Overall, it was fine given the amount paid.

Little gem of a motel in Old Saybrook.
Very good basic hotel in a nice town. Room was clean and had everything you would need for a traveler. I had a late arrival due to traffic and the check in clerk contacted me to ask about my status. He was very nice and helpful. Motel offers no food service, but there is a very nice breakfast spot across the street. Definitely would stay again.

Are You Kidding?
Overall, this was a very dated hotel. The old chairs in the lobby were very dirty. There was a dead bug on the floor in our room. There was a towel from a prior guest hanging on the back of the door. It felt like a dorm room. The sheets were permanently stained. We will not be staying there again. Very disappointed.

I've stayed at lots of hotels in Old Saybrook and this is my favorite. The rooms are comfy. The staff is friendly. The management is conscious of indoor air quality (other hotels are not). I travel a lot for business and it's great to find a place I can get comfortable in. I've extended my stay here for these reasons.
