Devotion Woods Tours and Activities

This is an older hotel, it has some worn furniture and the tiniest little elevator you've ever seen, very much like what you'd find in Europe but it also has a great deal of charm. The beds were comfortable, the sheets were very soft, the bathroom was clean and the staff was fabulous. I requested a fridge it was there in 5 minutes I requested an iron for a shirt it was there in 5 minutes on the second day we needed more shampoo and towels they were there in a matter of minutes. Marie behind the front desk was the absolute best. Additionally it couldn't have been better located. Coffee straight across the street Times Square 2 minutes down the road and a good many popular New York sites in walking distance..I have to mention the food,great street food everywhere, good restaurants everywhere and the best ice cream in the city inhouse. We had a blast

The room was swept, and the beds were clean, unlike many other reviews. That's the only good thing I can say. One elevator was broken so the wait time to go to the lobby reached 8 minutes during busy times (night/mornings). Our bathroom had a broken section out of the vanity, and the shower continuously switched back to running bath water. The blind was broken and wouldn't roll down. The TV didn't work, and the staff offered no recourse for fixing it. There also isn't daily housekeeping. The neighborhood is a little sketchy, with industry right beside the hotel. It's on a busy highway, so even though the water is right across the street, you can't get there without crossing 8 lanes of heavy traffic. Breakfast was available, but substandard. Considering prices of other hotels in New Haven, I still think it was worth it, but as my husband pointed out, you absolutely get what you pay for.

Great location, loved the gym access!
