Great location to the beach and to the local restaurants. Traffic is very crowded and busy but which means it is a great place to visit. Pools and place for children to play was very nice. Breakfast was great with many variety and quality, but could be better if the menu for the breakfast changes everyday.

So glad we chose this hotel. The location was near the ocean but removed from the fray of the downtown area. Neighborhood was clean and felt safe. Bed and linens were very comfortable and clean. Bath towels could use some refreshing. All of the hotel staff were kind, helpful and friendly.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Water didn't get hot, only warm. Before checkin, they sent a mail requesting my preference for walk-in shower or bath, I requested shower, they gave a bath. Door to room didn't close properly. Room was noisy at the bottom of a flight of stairs, with people waking me up at 5.30am each day as they pulled luggage up stairs. Staff were great, always smiling. Hotel on the whole is nice, well located, clean but this particular room (014) was not up to my expectation and was disappointing on an otherwise good week in CT.
