the location of this hotel is great for attending events at the Connecticut Casinos. There is shopping and restaurants in the area. The hotel was quiet and easy to access the rooms. As for the room, it was clean and very roomy. I thought I reserved a non-smoking room, but I did not (according to my app). I only had a few issues - the room did smell like smoke, thankfully it was cigarettes and nothing else. I purchased air freshener and spray and dealt with it due to my mistake, the bathroom door did not have a lock or latch to keep door closed and the hotel door did not have a safety chain or latch however it did have a bolt in the door. I did feel safe and comfortable but do wish there was something else on the door. I would return to this hotel if I needed a place in the area.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Pros:The staff are very friendly and accommodating. It's very quiet, even with so many people there. I think the rooms could use a good updating, tho. There was water damage in the floor and wall around the ac in the bedroom, no TV in the "living room", only one burner worked on the stove. The water from the shower head was weak and the water didn't get hot unless you turned it all over he way to that side, then you end up scalding yourself.
