Three issues: 1. The door into the building near my room, from the outside, would not lock! That's UNSAFE. Also, the hardware was broken & make-shift, 2. The lamp light in my room was way too dim----because they use 15 watt REFRIGERATOR bulbs to cut corners. 3. Noting I was there on Election Night---they had multiple FOX channels (Right leaning) BUT no MSNBC (left-leabing). That is BIASED!

The room needed some updating-the mirror on the bathroom door was filthy as was the tub/shower. The mini fridge was rusted out and the actual room was musty and old. Furniture was nice and bed was nice but the musty smell was not. They’re definitely trying to improve the space though I think.

Our room was uninhabitable. The vent was covered with mold, the shower walls and floor were covered in streaks of brown filth and residue. The refrigerator had piles of rust particles under it and more would fall each time you opened it. The freezer portion was a solid block of ice and unusable. Some of the furniture was covered in so much dust it looked like they hadn't been touched in months. There were crumbs and dust on the floor under and around the sink. The place reeked of mold. The hallway leading to the room also smelled strongly of mold, and the floor was covered in filth. It looks like it hadn't been vacuumed in months. I have been fighting with them for a week now, they have refused to give my money back due to their cancellation policy. I did not cancel, I showed up in good faith to stay for three nights, and found my room uninhabitable, and the air making both me and my friend feel sick.

Simple, retro, near to several restaurant options, including the Mystic Diner (awesome btw!), but also close to the Seaport. We’ll be back! Soon…

The room needed renovations & the bathroom too. The bed overall was comfortable. The shower worked & had hot water. The hallway smelled of cigarette smoke & the carpet was dirty. Location was good. Diner is a plus. Jealous Monk restaurant was good. Went to see a movie so I did not have to spend too much time in our room. One night was enough for us. We still had a great vacation!

This property is absolutely disgusting. We tried to get a refund through Expedia and after spending an hour on the phone with multiple different people they offered us 1/5 of what we paid in key cash, with no actual refund for the hotel we didn’t end up staying at. It looks nothing like the photos, the rooms and hall reek of pee and cigarettes. The rooms are unclean and the doors do not lock property, which is extremely unsafe. The actual doors to the hotel besides the main door do not lock either, they are open for anyone to come in.

This motel is good for one night. It is convenient to shopping. (Old mystic village is right across the street). It is old and needs updating. The carpet in the hallway was badly stained. The bathtub was either dirty or stained. The room was a nice size. The walls are paper thin. We could hear our neighbors and their children clearly.
