suite at coonamessett

I don't have any thing to say about bed comfort. Bed was fine. Only had 'continental breakfast' provided which was ok, nothing special. We had a village suite -- the sitting room had a pervasive, musty smell. Not pleasant. I suggest better lighting, signage and directions to stairway to the set of village suites descending to pond. Very difficult to determine how to safely walk around and through building. Signage poor, and unlit.

I have a small dog and had a pet friendly room. The room was at the end of a series of steps. I am 79 years old and this was very difficult for me. Parking was too far away and I struggled with just an overnight bag and a bag for my dog. I don’t think I will come again, even though I had previously been here there must be a way of accommodating, an older person who may have a dog in a room that is accessible without many stairs and accessible to your car for the last two days I have had bad back pain and I know it’s because of this This policy you have of using this particular room. I also feel I was overcharged based on what I received. The only nice person I met was Marissa the reception girl, but I don’t think it was in her power to help us.

Sad hotel

We were very disappointed with our stay at The Coonamessett. First, I found it odd that the front desk closes at 8:00 p.m. That was not terrible - they called and told us so, and that they would leave the room key for us. But then the room was up a very old and narrow staircase. Worse, there was some kind of flood or problem in the room prior to our arrival (rug was wet and they had an ozone machine set up in the hallway). It was a terrible smell and so we asked if our room could be changed the next day. It was a little disconcerting that they seemed aware of the room's condition and weren't surprised by our request to move. The new room was better but I would note that they don't have desks in their rooms, which makes it very uncomfortable if you have any business to do. Breakfast was minimal and they don't let you into the building until 7:30. Thankfully the weather wasn't bad as we had to wait outside. Decor is very sad - like they are trying for a more modern look but haven't quite hit the mark. It all seems like just a veneer. I've known the property for years - decades - and while I was excited to see what they've done with it, it actually just felt depressing.

The hotel is very nice. Our room was wonderful and the location is great. Unfortunately, we were given a room facing the very busy road and rush hour traffic starts very early, before 5 a.m. so make sure that you request a room not facing the road.
