This hotel is very conveniently located within walking distance to the New London waterfront, shops, and restaurants. The rooms are a good size but, as a single traveler, this wasn't terribly important to me. Room amenities, like bathroom, were a little dated. It's a good hotel and I have no complaints, but perhaps slightly overpriced.
