This is a property in need of restoration. We went to a concert at Mohegan Sun and wanted budget friendly accommodation. Price was great and accommodations were adequate though sorely in need of updating. Everything was old and worn but the room was clean.

Dean

Liked: Staff & service
Would be helpful if staff was more fluent in English. Happy non-smoking facility, but perfumey spray was predominant throughout. Location to Mystic Seaport was great. Parking was great. Seemed to be a safe area, just off the road. Spacious room! In-room Breakfast bar/chairs & extra sink was a plus! Made the 2-day stay convenient. Tub/toilet room was lacking towel bar and extra space. Gas/Convenience store across the street was helpful since no breakfast/snacks supplied. We would stay again.

Decent place with plenty of space, but no coffee available, workers weren't very friendly, and the place needs a good deal of work. It's worth the money and clean enough, but needs a paint job and some renewal. Definitely could offer up some coffee, too.
