The owner was so helpful and friendly. When our car wouldn't start due to a dead battery, he called a friend to drive over to give us a jump (since the owner's car was a hybrid and he couldn't access his battery). The grounds are beautifully landscaped with lots of blooming trees and flowers. It's very conveniently located with a great cafe across the street.

Unhealthy

This was the worst hotel I’ve ever stayed at. The room smelled musty and there was mold all over the bathroom and probably under the carpet as well. I had booked two nights but left after one. They offered me a bottle of water at check in, A Tyvek suit and respirator would have been more appropriate. I cannot recommend this place.

Pier Blue Inn Old Saybrook

The property was nice on the outside, nicely renovated. Staff was very nice upon arrival. Room had an odor, we booked Double Queen room the beds were full size beds which my husband and myself were very uncomfortable sleeping. One of the beds had a stain on the sheets. The coffee maker wasn’t clean an old filter was left in it.My husband had to run hot water in it to clean it to make cup of coffee. It had a great restaurant across the street. I would have given the property an 10 but, the room situation changed the rating.

The room was so nice, clean, big and was so comfortable. Sima, the manager is so kind, caring and professional. The few other times I've been here, we alway strike up a great conversation. I always feel so welcomed. She always has a smile on her face and i notice she works so hard to make everything perfect. Monika, who works at the front desk is also so kind and always smiling. What a great experience. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a nice quiet and beautiful vacation or weekend getaway. I would give it 10 stars if it had it on here. Just a GREAT place to stay.
