This property was clean, affordable, and convenient location in Simsbury with great options for dining within a half mile. No frills and the decor is a bit dated, but for the price in this location it's a solid option. Notes: I didn't see any elevator (we also didn't ask) and there is no coffee maker in the room although there is some in the morning next to the reception desk. It is not pet friendly.

We enjoyed having a balcony to relax at the end of the evening and sit out on for a cip of coffee in the morning but there was no in room coffee service. There was a fridge and microwave but no coffee maker. My hubby had to get dressed and go downstairs and grab a few cups. While not a major issue it is something we start our day with. The other thing also mentioned in other reviews is that there were no bath towels in our room. Im not sure why this would be an ongoing issue but fortunately we realized it at 10pm so we could still get them. We would stay there again but come prepared.

The room was adequate and clean. No amenities like stationery or pen, shampoo etc. I expected coffee in room. Lobby was depressing. Hotel exterior needs painting. Internet connection was good. TV was deluged with advertisements. There was an A/C unit, did not seem to be any heat control for the room. The room was slightly too cold. OK for the price I guess.

The hotel was very convenient and the owners were accommodating. The property and the room were lost somewhere in the 1970’s, though, and could use some serious updating. Stains on the carpet, frost in the mini fridge, and a bug in the ice bucket were low points. This is Simsbury, though, and the nightly rate is very low for the valley, so you should understand that you get what you pay for. For my needs, it was adequate.

This hotel was gross, not sure why it has good reviews on Expedia. My sheets were stained, the bed was uncomfortable, there was a cockroach mummified in the framed picture on the wall, and the mini fridge was dirty. Can’t believe I spent $100 for a night here.

This is a solid 1-star motel. The towels were very clean, at least. The room was old and dingy. The beds were truly awful. What you might expect for $65 or $70 a night; $125 is wildly overpriced and incredible that they charge so much. If you’re really cheap, go somewhere else. If you can pay $125, get a room at another hotel, or even better, one of the lovely b&bs in the area.

Lovely stay

We had a great stay. The gentleman who ran the hotel was very kind and helpful. The room was a bit outdated but clean and comfortable, good value for the $ and central location.
