If you need inexpensive accommodations
This might be the place for you. It was Homecoming week at Wesleyan and we couldn't find anything closer. The proprieters were very accommodating, however, and gave great directions. It satisfied our needs.

Stay away from I-95. It's a disaster. Unbelievable traffic.

While this hotel was clean I would say that the best decryption is, it is what it is! The people were very friendly and honestly they only received their power back that morning from it being out for nearly a week from a recent snow storm. For the price paid it is as I expected but it could use some updating.

Red Carpet Inn and Suites Meriden
Needed a room for the night from the drive up from NJ. Room had a window that was propped up with a hanger because it was broken and had no screen.Complained about toiletries, window[...]. Bathroom door didn't lock either. Bed cover had questionable stains, but it seems many hotels do, sheets smelt clean and washed, pillows were way over used, flat, and compacted. Staff did address our concerns with room and gave us more towels. Bathroom was grimy and so was shower. Would have complained about the "continental breakfast" if we weren't in a rush to check out and leave. Break fest advertised was basically 2 cereals cookies, water, and no milk. We went there at 7 and just just checked out and left and got real food at a local place. 7AM is by no means later for breakfast (at least at most hotels) so I don't think they were even still setting anything up. Lobby is a tiny room with one table in it to eat. Room doors are arranged motel like right on street. Needed a room for the night didn't know of or care to use any other facilities they may have had.

Horrible
[...] When I finally got the room it was not heated at all the hotel attendant said it hadn't been rented in two days so he hadn't heated the room. The room was very dirty the trash from the last person who rented the room was still in the bathroom. It was a disgusting uncomfortable stay.

smokey
Even though this hotel is rated as a non-smoker, you could smell the cigareete smell. Light switches were filthy. I would not redcommend this hotel. The only thing nice was the breakfast.

Intimidating, but serves its purpose
The hotel lobby is interesting...The manager is behind a piece of bullet-proof glass. All transactions are made using a small slit under this glass. Can service be any more unfriendly? The room was clean, and had a nice big TV. Bathroom has all tile and does not have drain covers in the sink. The shower curtain probably needed to be replaced. Continental breakfast consists of microwavable oatmeal, oatmeal cream pies, and boxed doughnuts.
