Anniversary night
Breakfast was good. Coffee was good. Staff was friendly, but there was a mold smell coming from our AC unit and I could hear people running around upstairs all night.

It's a Best Western conveniently located near the interstate. It's easy to get into the cute town of Mystic which is a fun place to visit.

Staff was friendly, room was nice and clean. Our bathroom door was super tight, hard to open and would creak everytime you opened it. The sheets and blanket couldve been more comfortable material.
Overall, convenient location to all and a clean room

Well, firstly, Eddy took very good care of our room and was a consummate gentleman. The staff in general were courteous, professional and cordial.
The breakfast, while uninspired, was plentiful.

The location is great. I have no complaints. This is not luxury hotel but if you need to stay overnight or for a couple of days it's fine.

One night stay
Hotel is okay for a short stay. Check in was quick. Staff was friendly. The rooms don’t have carpets so floors are loud. We were on the first floor and someone started walking/jumping on the second floor since 4:00 a.m on a Sunday!

Not a good stay at all
The staff were talking to each other while we were checking in. The room was just okay. The bedspread was all ripping and the stuffing was coming out. The walls were paper thin there must of been a child above us and we barely slept due to the child running around at all hours. We complained about all this and management didn't seem to care
