Wish I got a refund: horrific
The comforter was stained with old blood. The place was freezing cold with no thermostat to use. Shower head was cracking off.

Front desk person was ambivalent to me. Understanding it was 11 pm when I checked in but he seemed upset to be there. Elevator smelled like moth balls. Room was spacious and heat worked fine. For a 1 night fine but probably not longer. Also sheets were stained and blanket had holes.

Clean but not fancy
It was ok. The rooms were clean but really outdated and some outlets didn't work and a light did not work. Location was quiet. It is ok if you want to stay for an inexpensive room but not expecting extras like breakfast. Family who owned was nice and treated us well.

Quiet, relaxed location with an easy drive to downtown Mystic. Great place to sleep when in the area at a much better price than surrounding hotels.

The space is large and clean. That staff was helpful. I'm sorry to say that the most noteworthy quality about this hotel is that there's an odor. The property has seen better days. Perhaps it's in the process of a rehab? Also, there is no coffee anywhere in the building or within several miles of the hotel.
