No frills, but the room was updated. Small TV we never used. The air conditioner looked new and worked well. Beds were comfy and the bathroom clean. Used the refrigerator and small microwave. Picked up some breakfast sandwiches and yogurt at the Walmart near by. The outdoor pool looked nice and fairly large, although we didn't use it.
We were gone all day but stayed for 3 nights. All in all, a great value for a nice room to spend each night. Owners maintain the property well. Would definitely stay again.

I've stayed here twice now, so I feel that I can definitely give an enthusiastic positive review of this motel.

I visit this area regularly, and I've stayed in at least 6 other hotels and motels nearby. This is the first one I've gone back to, because it checks all my boxes:
Great Location (it's near the highway on/off ramp, it's close to a ton of different shopping, restaurants, and touristy sites, it's easy to enter and exit the parking lot),
Well Maintained Property (the grounds were spotless, and staff was seen regularly cleaning up the guest areas),
Extremely Clean (both rooms I stayed in were spotless and smelled fresh/clean without having a chemical scent),
Friendly staff (friendly and attentive during check-in, and greeted me throughout both my stays, even asking if I needed anything),
Safety (This, to me, is the most important element. Because I am sometimes a solo traveler, it's crucial to me that I feel safe in the place I'm sleeping. The parking lot is well-lit, and all locks on windows and doors were secure! Additionally, because this property is sort of stand-alone and not near other structures, it feels a little less likely to attract a wandering weirdo!)

On a previous trip, I stayed in a room with two beds on the second floor, and on my most recent trip, I was in a room with one bed. Both rooms were spacious with lots of surface areas and spots to put my belongings. The mini fridge and microwave are also extremely handy to have!

Of all my research, this was the most affordable and cleanest lodging. I will stay here the next time I visit my sibling at Connecticut College too.

I will say to bring your shower shoes and don't walk barefoot (just in general, the place was clean just old), and the room smelled heavily of perfume or strongly scented cleaning product. I was able to air it out by opening the windows. Also, the AC made the room feel uncomfortably damp, so I got by with the window open or it being cold enough at night to keep my window shut.

There was a kitchenette, but no pan, sponge, plates, or silverware, etc. Microwave and mini fridge were very helpful.

Location was near a Target, Walmart, McDonalds, Texas Roadhouse, and the highways.

The motel provided a continental breakfast which was just enough. Will definitely go back

The pool is small, but nice. I don’t think anyone checks it during the day, so I had to fish out insects with the net myself before my family and I could swim. Breakfast area is clean, and the breakfast is very sparse.

Great little hotel close to casino

The hotel was very convenient for going to Mohegan Sun for an event. The room was large and clean and the beds were the MOST comfortable beds. Room had everything you'd need, including the microwave, fridge, working AC, and extra pillows and blankets. Only down side (which was not really an issue) is that the vanity was made so big that it's RIGHT next to the toilet and so it was a little squished to use it. Wish the pool had been open since it was gorgeous out!

I booked and paid for 2 rooms because my cousin and I were arriving at different times. The office staff was unclear on the reservation saying it was only in my name then finally figured it out. She was difficult to understand not speaking clearly nor loud enough to hear over the blaring loud tv and AC unit. After I checked in I wanted to make sure all my cousin needs to do was check in with her ID since I’d already taken care of the room fees and $50 damage deposit. She confirmed that she would just need to check in. We stayed in upper level rooms. The parking behind the building was sketchy at best, it was much nicer in the front. The stairways were dirty and dark and full of flies as was the landing where the rooms were to the point that when we opened the door to the room flies got inside! There were only 2 towels in the bathroom and a musty smell inside with a ratty looking chair that did not look inviting to sit on. The day after we got home I got a text from my cousin asking if they charged me for both rooms because they charged her a $50 charge and a $200 charge. After confirming that I did get charged the rate for both rooms, I sent a message to the hotel demanding they refund her that fee. My cousin also called the hotel where they informed her that the $200 charge was not the room rate fee. They charged her because they are accusing her of smoking in the room. She argued that was not the case but tgey refused to listen. This is outrageous! Travelers beware!

The one issue I had with the room was the TV. The volume was at 100% but I could barley hear it. That made it difficult to watch any television. Parking was plentiful. There wasn't any eating places nearby. Overall. it was still a pleasant one night stay!
