6/10 Good

Weekend getaway

It was a good overall experience no complaints really. The top of the fridge was very dirty and the place had a very strong bleach smell as well. The walls needed a little more cleaning, but it was a decent little place to say right by the ocean for the weekend.

I made a last minute decision to come here, and am I ever so glad I did! The staff is so sweet, and the room is like a studio apartment. Great deal for the price. The pet fee is low and the river is right outside the door and you can watch the ships go by. What a gem!

6/10 Good

For a 2 star motel this place is fine. The price for Connecticut is low so for the price it is not bad. It does have a full size stove/oven and refrigerator. No food available but some great diners with 5 minutes.
