The property and location were great. Super convenient. There was loads of parking in a basement garage (for a fee). Our room was a bit run down and smelled a bit like cigarettes. But it did feel clean and it was cheap. It was what we needed for one night!

The hotel/motel was clean and staff was friendly Close to stores and restaurants but a little hard crossing roads if walking no real crosswalks. The room we were in had slow WIFI but otherwise a nice place to stay and great value for your dollar

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Things to Note (Includes both the bad, and the good.) - The parking lot was full of holes and quite rough. - The moment I walked into my hotel room, there were a few flies near the window. - There were no clean towels when requested. - Dusty/Unknown Residues present in the bathroom. - Free Breakfast is Nice - Wifi was lacking to say the very least, had to use a hotspot.

It was absolutely beautiful this hotel is very close to everything staff is like family. Shout out to the maintenance man. My room air wasn’t working properly he immediately changed my room with an upgrade and brought me lunch. The front desk guy Hussin was absolutely amazing as well .

The location was fantastic, the breakfast very good, and the staff was great and very accommodating. The fridge, TV, microwave in the room were nice. I understand that the property is going through a face-left, which is needed. Some of the room (bathrrom) was not cleaned well but I'm pretty picky.

The only “ amenity” really is the breakfast. it has the typical simple buffet (solid). Our first room had a terrible smell, could not stay in there. the staff quickly rectified and gave us another room. however, working in Hartford the room fit the value of the price and you are right downtown. We we’re staying over for a concert.

Location was amazing!! On and off the highway easily. Walking distance to local restaurants, peoples arena, and Bushnell park. Felt safe. Breakfast was good and breakfast area was very clean. Our hotel view of the city was beautiful. Our 1 night stay was good with some things to take into consideration: Hotel garage is an underground garage so ceiling is low and garage is tight to maneuver so smaller cars are easier to use to park in the garage. Pillows weren't that comfortable pretty flat for my standard And one drawer kept opening on its own in the dresser. the smell of marijuana in the lobby and hallway was very strong and overwhelming I hope that can change.
