I'm sure the people that work there are nice enough but I felt unsafe from the moment I saw the property. First, the hotel office was off putting, dingy and dank. There was a different phone number on the door of office to call to check in from the phone number on the website which made me uneasy.It seems like the place is used as long term rental?? The room seemed clean enough but the floor was sticky. Tiny thin pillows and no top sheet for the bed. Thin blanket that looked like it was from Walmart. I didn't even take my luggage in, I didn't even stay. I cut my vacation short and drove the four hour drive home as I couldn't afford to pay for another hotel room. Spent $233 for a room at a hotel that should NOT be advertised as a real hotel

Room was not clean at all. There was a lid from a McDonalds cup on the kitchen floor when we first walked in, red solo cups under one of the beds, debris in one of the showers, and an ice pop wrapper on the floor of the bedroom. The two closets next to the bed smelled like someone treated them as a kennel for wet dogs. The tile floor felt like it had a think slime layer on it and our socks felt damp from walking on it. The top sheet on the bed had stains and we had to remove it. My girlfriend and I truly considered sleeping in the car.

Sparsely furnished but well-kept rooms. Great location but badly unkempt grounds. No coffee anywhere. Hardly worth the relatively high price.

The view with a private balcony was nice, we watched the sunset on the water. But the room was not as expected in the pictures. Super old and outdated. Small bed in what looked like an apartment.Mild odor from just age and probably smoking at one point.note horrible just didn’t smell refreshing and clean I would have rather had new furniture and look over the extra large space We did book last minute so maybe we were given what was left. Our main reason of staying was dog friendly place.

Office was a little shock. Can use some work. The cleaning lady (Sam) was very nice. Room was clean. She was very helpful. Laundry facilities were very good. Party took place outside on the balcony about midnight the first night. If you had small kids this would have been a no-go.

The manager Wayne was outstanding. Very friendly and did the best with what he had to work with. However, there were people outside of the rooms smoking and hanging on the railings and stairs. The cleaning woman was smoking as she was coming out of a room. On a table outside of one of the rooms was a gatorade bottle half filled with cigarette butts and a brown liquid. Trash on the table and walkway. Owner definately does not put a penny back into the property. It's a shame really, as the location could be amazing. It's right on the river.

I was surprised to have a small kitchenette, but only 2 plastic cups, silverware and a pot. Wood floor was not attached to anything and breaking up. The bathroom window did not shut. There was a massage chair in the room, that did not work, a table and two wood chairs. The parking lot was deteriorating and the marina was totally destroyed. The bed was comfortable, the sheets were clean and the tv worked.

Pros - There was a massage chair is the room which was in good working order and the toilet paper was better quality than even the major chains provide. Con’s - no stopper in the sink, no hot water to shower, not even paper plates for eating but there were eating utensils. No ice available or trays to make ice in the rooms, No wastebasket in the bathroom and no hangers in the wardrobe area.

First the good. Place was clean, good parking cool location, great view The bad Very old furnishings. Looks like mostly apartments now. It is not a marina anymore. Docks are decrepit unsuitable. No boats except the one that is sunken at the dock. 20 years ago I bet this was a cool place. Should not be on Expedia web site

Excellent service. Bed was too soft for my bad back so Wayne (manager) showed me 2 other rooms until I found a firmer bed. He brought a new coffee pot pot when mine didn’t work. He went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. Kitchenette and comfortable chairs made the place easy to stay at.

Very dirty place. It looks ok but was filthy. We got to choose from two rooms, and at first glance it looked ok. Very dirty floors, hairs from previous guests shaving around faucet, dirty shower curtain, my child itched all night and I hope it was not bed bugs- we slept with the light on rest of the stay… Dirty kitchen table and fridge, steep stairs and no elevator. Insects stuck in bathroom ceiling, very loud AC, lots of trash outside the door, the office was in such a mess etc.

While I was a little underwhelmed when we first saw it, it’s more of a motel than an inn, it turned out to be a lovely stay. Has everything you could need in the kitchen. Nice shower. Very clean. Walked across the lot and had a great dinner at Paul’s Pasta. We actually purchased more sauce and fresh pasta as our souvenir. Being on the Thames River the views are incredible too. Now if it wasn’t going to rain on Block Island tomorrow I would be one happy Mom. We will be back.

I love that this property is right on the Thames river with spectacular views and breezes along with the superb customer service for manager, Wayne and the spotlessly clean and comfortable rooms. They are super welcoming to good guests and their good dogs. My room was so nice. I had a little deck that was private and looked right out on the Thames river. The kitchen had a full oven and refrigerator. The Wi-Fi was super fast and the TV was great. The bed was comfortable in the room was big and so well appointed and modern. It was a wonderful stay.

Have been staying there over the last twenty years and it has gone downhill. Toilet seal leaking over the bathroom floor, curtains covered with dog hair, and a couch covered in stains. Not worth the money.

Arrived after 8 hour drive from Virginia. No one at office. Had to call phone number posted on the office door. someone answered with screaming kids in the background to tell me my reservation made months ago was “lost” & there were no available rooms. Had to go find last minute hotel room elsewhere during peak vacation season. Not happy!

It was on the River. Saw sunsets and full moon over the river. We also saw two submarines. You don't see that everyday. The last thing is that it was close to everything, meaning New London was across the river, Mistic was a short drive. A lot to do in the area.
