I didn’t like anything about the place. Everything is old. The walls had some holes in them and need to be painted. The ceiling in the bathroom above the shower is nasty, the rugs need to be replaced, and the curtains were ugly. The staff called me asking when I would be arriving and called us before 11 am to tell us it was checkout time. I guess you get what you pay for. I won’t be staying there again.
Hidden gem! Affordable on the weekend. About 20 mins from the casino. Clean. Microwave! No issues.

As soon as we walked into the building, smelt super nice and appeasing as you entered doors. It was super quiet in the building, which was nice. We got into our room and it was super spacious and clean. We got the room the night before a competition at Foxwoods. Was close to Foxwoods as well as lots of stores and convenience stores around.
Cons: Outside exterior of building didn’t look too appealing, and smelt at desk where you check in and out and smelt weird in elevator. A lot of Broken outlet covers that someone should invest in replacing, so no accidents occur. Other than that though a 5 star rating for the room itself
Room was nice large. Property in poor condition. Paint coming off walls. Ceiling tiles water stained. Holes in sheets. Towels were washed but stained. No coffee. Could be a really nice place again with a little work.
If you want to go to the casino and want inexpensive worth it. But this was our 1 year annivsrsary. First impression outside was ok tape on on screen quick fix. When entering the room smelled like fish. Had to go to walmart to get sent things. Oven unusable many lights unusable holes in walls windows do not work if you try to use them good luck. Carpets had wet spots. Shower curtain rod falling down. And closets unusable. These are not suites its a quick stay. Glad we were only in there to sleep a few hours and left. Spend the extra bucks for a more up to date place.
The property is so worn down. The whole thing is sketchy and I felt unsafe. The door didn’t even latch all the way, and no one was ever at the front desk. There were so many spiders too. And stains on all of the towels and sheets.

Girl at the desk is very nice. I’ve stayed here 3 times everything was clean except this time the room didn’t look like it was even cleaned. I would definitely still stay here again. The place is old and definitely needs to be updated, but the important thing is there are no roaches or bedbugs. Stay away from RedRoof and Clarion in New London..
Bhumi checked us in and was so kind. The room was huge, clean, and inviting. It was like a little apartment! I'll definitely book there next time I go up to the casinos!
