8/10 Good
"We were a little nervous not staying at a big brand hotel. But the reviews repeatedly mentioned cleanliness. And it was a good price. So Yes! Very clean, friendly check-in. Gentleman told us the rooms were recently updated. Carpet looked new, good size room. The bed and pillows were comfortable. Good shower pressure. Several outlets for recharging. I liked the big mirror and bench in the room to do my hair. Parked right outside our door. Excellent location to visit Branford, Guilford and Madison shops and beaches. No bells and whistles like a pool or gym but definitely a nice clean place to spend the night for a weekend get-away."
