The whole place was very outdated and run down. I honestly thought the place was abandoned and thought the website just hadn't been updated when it accepted our reservation! There was a rundown closed up restaurant as you pull in the entrance. The illuminated sign along the highway had broken and fallen out. The landscaping was all overgrown with weeds.
The lobby area wasn't bad looking and the staff were friendly enough. The room wasn't too bad...I didn't notice anything dirty about it...it just could use a lot of updating.
A lot of the amenities were out of order....the guest laundry, the ice machine, the gym. The hallways were rather dark and some of the light fixtures flickered on and off.
The breakfast was nothing great, but it was enough to fill you up for a few hours. They do have a bar/restaurant onsite, but I didn't see any customers in there during our entire stay. It seems more like a place for the family that owns the place to hang out with each other.
Maybe they're trying to fix the place up. They were painting the exterior when we were there. For some reason they were working at night. When I looked out the curtains, there was someone literally 2 feet outside the window painting! They were also using loud equipment well after 10pm!
I go to CT once a year and was always curious about this place because of the waterfront photos. That area is all overgrown now and a highway is right there about where the photo was taken from.
