Americas Best Value Inn Stonington Mystic

"Great place to lay your head after enjoying a beautiful summer day in downtown Mystic, CT. The rooms are clean, staff is very friendly and helpful, and the hotel is minutes from beautiful Mystic as well as Westerly, RI, beaches. The price is very reasonable too, adding a little more shine to the fifth star of the five star review. Enjoy all."

"I feel very happy with my stay here. My room is clean and spacious, there is a nice sized table for working at, the bed and sheets are comfortable, the shower has plenty of hot water, there is a microwave and minifrig, there are windows on 2 sides so lots of sunlight comes in in the afternoon (which I like) or curtains if you do not prefer that, and there is beautiful nature around the motel (lovely grass fields and a pond in the distance) with the peaceful sounds of seagulls and crickets. There is a road with some traffic noise during the day, but it does not bother me at all. My favorite part of my stay is the kindness of the gentleman at the front desk. Kind eyes and demeanor, helpful and polite. And after my first night he saw me outside and checked to see how everything was and asked if I need anything. I am grateful to have found an affordable place to stay that is also clean, safe, and comfortable. Thank you."

"We visited this location from July 13-16, 2023 and I have never stayed somewhere so dismal. The pictures online and on their website are extremely outdated and do not even begin the reflect the quality of the spaces. We reserved a one queen bedroom and the room was smaller than we’d expected, the bathroom even worse. There was enough room for a tiny coffee table, the queen bed and two side tables (which held a microwave and the only lamp in the room). The first thing we noticed was the moisture and the smell in the room. It definitely needed to be aired out. In the bathroom, the toilet was so close to the wall you had to sit on it at an angle or else you’d knock your knees! The shower was also very, very small. Like..turn the water off to wash your body and turn it back on to rinse off SMALL. Overall, not a great experience in this ‘hotel’ and we are glad we only had to utilize it to sleep. Would recommend updating photos online and being more upfront with the sizing/amenities of this establishment."

"The guy at the desk barely spoke English and was hard to understand. We were placed in rm 107 at first. As soon as you walk in the smell of mold and mildew hit you. There was mold all over the bathroom. My husband went back to the “office” and spoke to the guy seeing if there was a different room to stay in because we were not staying in that room. He moved us to a renovated room (rm 130) . That room didn’t smell as bad but still had an odor. The bathroom had a used bar of soap on top of the shower, the towels were damp and looked used. The mattresses had stains on them and the pillows felt damp. The bathroom door didn’t shut, the refrigerator didn’t work and the front door had about a 1inch gap under it. We sucked it up and stayed for 1 of the nights, (I wish we just left that night) but found better accommodations for the rest of our trip. I wouldn’t recommend this hotel to anyone. I wouldn’t even give it 1 star."

"The guy at the desk barley spoke any English, we got placed in the wrong room then had to move to another room in which we paid extra for but it wasn’t in the best shape. We sucked it up and unfortunately had to stay here two nights. The bathroom was super small with no counter space. Also whatever green giant was staying above us must of had boulders for feet because every time they moved we could hear it vividly.. our bed was super noisy no matter what,you sit down and it made thunder noises. I leave a positive two stars for the bed and the ac unit that was the only two things we could enjoy during our stay. (Room 117) The parking lot was also pretty well lit which is nice. The man working that didn’t know English was nice but kept having to call his boss which they should be on site more often and actually take care of the people who stay here because without us they wouldn’t have anything going! I cannot speak for the rest of the rooms because it does seem like some have been updated but the non updated parts need to be shut down and remodeled before allowing any other guests to stay."
