The room was clean and comfortable. The only thing I noticed was that the room clearly smelled of smoke and it was supposed to be a non-smoking room or hotel. Also the hallway smelled of marijuana smoke as well. Other than those two things I would stay here again. I have stayed at this hotel multiple times and have not noticed problems like this before so maybe it was just a one time thing.

Very run down. They definitely had the temperature at the entrance put low to save money (the man at the front was wearing a winter coat). Paint chipped throughout room. Shower had rust near shower fixtures. Mat on shower ground peeling up with mold underneath. Water pressure in shower was the best ive ever experienced though. No pool towels replenished (on a saturday afternoon). Cheap stay; you get what you pay for.

We usually stay here when coming to Mystic, but this time was different. The lobby was freezing to start. The side door from the parking lot to the rooms was broken so anyone could get in. In our room, the toilet seat was broken and the shower was leaking. In the morning there was no coffee put out and to check out there was no one in sight. There was a note to leave keys in the box or you can call to have someone come. This was my go to place when we come, unfortunately we might have to look elsewhere.

A decent hotel. I stayed there for one night, and if I travel to that area again, I would definitely stay there again. The carpets and the room itself were clean, but there were someone’s fake nails in the nightstand next to the bed. The curtain was torn, and there was a cigarette butt left on the balcony. Overall, the room was nice and you feel safe there.

They said there would be coffee in the morning, but it wasn’t available, so I went to a diner less than a minute’s walk away, where hotel guests receive a 10% discount.
Everything you might need is nearby.

Front desk was never manned any time we stopped by. No coffee or tea in lobby as advertised. Our room was frigid since no one had turned the heat on. It took 18 hours for the heat to take the chill off the room. We had 2 sinks in separate locations and a tub/ shower combo . We were given 1 tiny bar of soap to use for all. We will not return to this hotel.

There was never anyone at the front desk. You had to call a number to get anyone to respond. They seemed put out that you needed any assistance. When they responded they were on personal phone calls. Beds were uncomfortable, bedding had stains on it. Towels were small and stiff, not to mention not enough for everyone staying in the room. Had to ask for towels for the pool area because there was never any in the pool area. Front lobby was freezing cold. There was never any coffee in the lobby like they stated.

The room was just in awful shape all around. We stayed her about 7 years ago and it was nothing like this. There was a sliding door that even when closed and locked had a small gap that was open to the outside. Worst hotel experience I've ever had.

Everything in the room was falling apart. The bedside table had sticky spots all over from where someone clearly spilt a drink. The sheets were covered in stains. The desk chair was covered in white crumbs. There was black mold all over the ceiling of the bathroom. And there was a door to the outside (I was on the first floor) that didn't even lock. Anyone could've walked in. There was a bar that was (I'm assuming) supposed to stop someone from opening the door. But when I tested it to see of the door was locked the bar just fell out... I checked out less than 2 hrs after checking in. I went to dinner after check in and checked out as soon as I returned after eating. This is the filthiest most unsafe hotel I have ever made a reservation at. I would NOT recommend anyone stay here. No matter how cheap it is.

Room and hallways were dated with fixtures falling apart. Couldn't find a staff member to check out this morning. Felt a bit like it was abandoned, which may just be a symptom of traveling through a coastal area in the off-season. It does look like they're renovating a big section of the property, so I hope that means it will be in much better shape soon.

My family and I recently stayed at the Howard Johnson by Wyndham Mystic in Mystic, CT. Once we got into our room, we unpacked and my husband checked all the windows and doors like we usually do when we stay at hotels. We were given a first floor room and when he checked the sliding door that is accessible to the outside, he noticed that there was a sheet of paper with a big red x on it taped to the door and the door itself was not locked. We're not sure why that was like that and why the door was left unlocked but it made my family feel very uneasy and uncomfortable. My husband went to the front desk to let the receptionist know and she didn't seem too alarmed by the situation. However, she was able to change our room upon our request since we didn't feel safe in that room.

When my family and I saw the room we gave it the benefit of the doubt as we were just sleeping there and not going to be staying in the room much. In the morning I washed my face and grabbed one of the folded towels to dry my face. I patted my face dry and looked down and say what appeared to be hair piled inside of the towel like someone had shaved their beard. It was gross, we packed up and checked out and brought this to the attention of the front desk person as we asked to speak to management, we were told that the manger wasn’t there and they couldn’t call them but they would pass the message along and the front desk personal gave me the email to the manager, the front desk person also told me that due to it being a holiday they didn’t have any cleaning staff that night so my guess is that someone didn’t change the towels. I have sent an email to management but have not gotten any responses. Terrible place to stay.

The room was a very nice size, did not feel cramped at all, was open and airy. We loved the hot tub in the bathroom. But you could smell that it once was a smoking room, and the toliet was loose, and the paint in the bathroom was bubbled, and a shelf was missing. And the normal, basic toliletries werent even there. So just a lityle dissaponting.

The staff was great, but the hotel was not clean. Our bathroom was filthy. The hotel is advertised as non-smoking, but our room smelled like old smoke. The elevator wasn't working, and more importantly, the outside door locks were broken so anyone could get into the hotel, which made us feel very unsafe. We left early and did not stay the 2nd night as planned. Management should be ashamed of the condition of this hotel - I have stayed in other Howard Johnsons that were very clean and safe, but this one was not.

It's an older hotel with some updates, but needs a few more. Check in was good, the gentleman was very nice & friendly. There was no one at check out and I needed a receipt. A guy (staff worker ) was sitting comfortably on the sofa on his phone was no help. A very nice lady came from the back as she was heading home asked if I had been helped & saw the guy just sitting there, I said no & I needed a hardcopy receipt. She was so pleasant & even though she was leaving work she went out of her way to help me. I wish I asked her name. I thank her so much, THAT IS AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE.

Our initial impression of the hotel was positive, thanks to the friendly staff and a room that seemed satisfactory at first glance. However, our stay was soon marred by the discovery of bugs on the bed and in the bathroom. Furthermore, as we were departing, we found a diaper under the bed, which suggested that the room hadn't been thoroughly cleaned. We requested a room rate adjustment, but haven't received a response from management yet.

The lady that checked me in was very nice and polite. Very helpful. The room was nice but needs to be updated. The carpets are old and have a mildew smell. But it was a very nice stay. I would have like to have breakfast at the hotel. There is a dinner on the same property. But the food on a scale of 1-10 was about a 2. Waitress was very nice. I ordered a Mystic Sunrise mocktail and was brought one that tasted like beer. When I asked she said it had champagne in it, and I reminded her that was supposed to be in mocktail so she took it away and returned with the correct one. But it definitely was beer..

I’m sorry to say, we will never stay here again. Technically we still haven’t stayed because after checking in and finding a dead small cockroach on the bathroom floor, the shower curtain rod nearly falling out of the wall on us, the robe hook dangling off the wall, and the ancient slider door cracked open and hard to close, we booked another hotel and asked for a refund before we left. I’m usually not one to complain or write a bad review, and the standard of where we might stay is generally average for what you would hope for after paying $278 for a room to be close to downtown Mystic, CT. However, this was unfortunately not a place we felt safe or comfortable staying. Expedia was very helpful in assisting with filing my dispute and asking Howard Johnson for a full refund of our prepaid charge, but the man at the front desk was not helpful or at all apologetic. Whether we get the refund or not we were not staying there, and it was very inconvenient and unexpected based on the pictures. Don’t waste your money here.

The bathroom had a leaky shower that didn’t stop running, a slipper floor in the tub that made you wonder how clean it was, and so much mildew mold in all the shower tub cracks - bathroom needs some renovation to get up back to even a basic accommodation level.

Hotel is very run down. As soon as you walk in the hall the stench is terrible. Each hallway has a new dirty smell. The pool looked so cloudy and gross we wouldn’t even let the kids swim in it. The room smelt clean and was better kept than the other places on property, but we were glad we were only spending the night. We found a dead bug in the bathroom and so much dust on the bathroom shelf. Tub looked dirty, so decided to skip the shower and wait til we were home. Needless to say we were out of there by 8:00 am the next morning because we were grossed out.

the hotel is conveniently located right off the highway. There is a diner right next door with great food and service. Walking into the hotel, it gives appearance of modernity. Unfortunately that’s where it ends . Rooms were clean. the pool area has several safety conditions : broken chairs that you fall into when you sit and they’re plastic so it’s sharp. Open holes on the deck where the humidifiers drip into without covers at least 6” in diameter. hallways are poorly lit
