A peaceful getaway in a gem of a suburban hotel.
Pros:

This is a very luxurious suburban hotel with a sophisticated design that includes one of the most gracious inviting lobbies I’ve ever seen in a midrange hotel in the burbs.

Cons:

It’s a bit isolated but close to Wallingford and the major CT highways.

Perfect experience!
Pros:

Hotel and room were clean. Probably the cleanest room I’ve ever stayed in. Loved the blackout curtains. And the bed was very comfortable. Service was excellent. Especially the cleaning staff and front desk associates. A few hours after we checked out, I realized I had left my wedding ring in the room and when I went back to the hotel, they had found it for me! They were so helpful and actually happy to help me!

Cons:

There were some men working in the hotel. One of them was rude to my son when he was on the elevator. It wasn’t a huge deal, but my son was upset about it.

The management are crooks.
Pros:

The stay would have been fine if I was charged for the appropriate number of nights that I stayed. I needed to check out 2 days early, confirmed with the front desk, and then was still billed for an additional 2 days. Then upon calling the hotel to correct the error, I was hung up on and pushed to a general operator. No other way to describe it other than robbery.
