Prezzo conveniente in zona Mystic

Il prezzo è uno dei migliori che ho trovato nei dintorni di Mystic.

Posizione piuttosto defilata.

Don’t expect much but a bed to sleep in

The cost

Upon checking in the staff member took a copy of my license. When I asked why he took a copy he told me in case he was questioned by the police. I have never had that experience when checking into a hotel. After a back and forth conversation he gave me the copy back. The website stated breakfast. There was no breakfast not even coffee. Lastly, there was no manager on site to contact when the people above our room were screaming at 3:30 a.m.

Pleasant

There was no breakfast available. The building is undergoing a change in management(ownership), the new owners are trying to improve the inn. Our first night we had no tv, and the man working was very rude. There was no housekeeping, but the 3 person staff was working on improvements.

We were disappointed with our initial impression.

Hilltop is a very economical, convenient place if you’re just looking for a comfortable, safe place to sleep

inexpensive, convenient, safe and relatively clean. bed was very comfortable.

very dated, fixtures and furniture. Hair dryer was missing. In-room coffee was horrible.

Less than Adequate

Most plugs did not work, had difficulty getting tv to work and when trying to call to get get help with it no one really was able to help. Toilet bowl felt like it was going to come off the floor when used.

Demanded partial refund.

Someone elses clothing in dresser. Filthy mold on shower curtain. Hotel light on sign completely out making it very difficult to find after dark.

While only visiting for one night, my TV did not work, and I found the mattress not too comfortable.

Room was big and spacious.

I’m never trusting booking.com again.

there was no staff to give us a key. The property looked rundown. Another guest informed us of mold in their room. After waiting, then pressing their buzzer and calling the number as noted in the desk it went to voicemail. After talking to a new guest who came in to talk about their room condition we left. This property needs to be vetted before Booking. com allows customers to visit.

see above. It is very run down. your ratings are wrong.

Spend a couple extra bucks and get a better place, because this one is trash.

The only nice thing was that the hotel is 10-12min away from Mystic downtown

The carpet was disgusting and dirty, room smelled like mold. The bathroom desperately needs an update. The hotel looks abandoned, the outside signed is nonexistent. The reception was always empty and I had to called to get someone.

Hilltop Stay

The Employee was friendly and helpful. Observed him deal with difficult customers well.

Shower curtain has mold on it, drain filled with different color hair, door was hard to open due to loose door hardware. Particularly a screw caused door to get caught and not open unless using great force. Multiple lights not working. Amenities included on list not included.

Better priced than any place in the area but get what you pay for... a room to sleep in.

Staff was friendly and courteous.

Bed linens smelled like smoke and we were in a non-smoking room. Front door latch plate was loose and door had to be slammed to shut and lock properly. They didn’t provide clean towels or remake bed during our stay. It wasn’t terrible but not worth the $120/night we paid.

It was enjoyable and relaxing

The owner/manager is very nice Her boys shoveled my car out during the blizzard in January. The owner was able to accommodate me another night on a very busy memorial day weekend.

A good bargain but lacking in interior design. Needs an interior make over and fresh paint/equip.

Could be Closer to local attractions. Noisy bathroom fan. Lights and electrical plug lllat bed not working on right side.

I was pleasantly surprised and would return to his hotel.

I was a bit unsure of this hotel as reviews from 2019 and earlier were not good at all. So, I called and spoke to the manager, who was so lovely to talk to on the phone. She informed me that she had taken over about a year and a half ago and that things were not the same. They refinished most of the rooms inside of the hotel and there were all new linens. Honestly, looking at this hotel from the front made me think it was just an oversized house because it doesn't look like your typical hotel. The street is quiet and you're only about 3/4 of a mile from the main road and all the restaurants. Check-in and check-out were quick and simple. The size of the room I was in was really nice. I didn't travel for work but I still needed to get some work done Friday night unfortunately because there wasn't an outlet close to the desk I couldn't plug in my laptop and was not able to get as much work done. I would suggest maybe an extension cord or a surge protector with a longer cord for visitors who need to work at a desk (I personally can't work with my laptop on my lap). There are outlets in the room for the TV, cable box, fridge, microwave and by the beds, just not one close enough for the desk. I would definitely come back to this hotel.

I don't have anything that I didn't really like. I would say that in the bathroom the light cover hadn't been replaced yet, but I understand because the rooms were being finished and that is a small detail in comparison to a clean room and linens. I would suggest encouraging the owner to update the sign outside as it is very old-looking and outdated.

Horrible experience

Didn't have one

Dirty looking carpets, mold in freezer drip pan, dresser side coming apart, light shades old and broken, pillows not comfortable, rust stain on bed box spring, dirty microwave, toilet rings and old stained tub. Definitely needs remodel. Stairway rugs dirty. Confirned and paid for 2 queen beds , said not available, had to take room with 2 double beds. Coming back in dark, hotel sign not lit up, poor lighting in front of hotel. No one at front desk when going in. Definitely not a place to stay again
