Really nice place to stay in the heart of CT.

Liked:The breakfast was great- the service of the waiters could be improved, as they were hardly on the floor, and when asked to bring something, it took a while. It was well located for us and what we needed to do. The staff around the hotel were friendly and helpful.

Disliked:The rooms are a bit dated and could use a bit of a fresher feel. The beds are too soft and very small- we had 2 doubles for the 4 os use, but the one for hubby and me was small. Housekeeping- they never (not on a single day) had the correct amount of towels for us so I had to call everyday. There seemed to be a communication issue, as each day a surprise arrived instead of the towels. We got a bag full of creams, soap, and shampoo. The other day I got an ironing board and an iron. All I needed was 4 towels.
