The stopper in the tub didn’t work so it was tough to bathe the kids, but we were only there two nights and made it work. I would’ve loved a few less check out instructions because it made leaving time consuming, but the place and location were great.
The space itself was very well curated and clean, and we appreciated there being some snacks for us when we arrived. The location was perfect as well; walking distance or a short drive to all the fun spots in Mystic. We would stay here again if ever in the area.
Ram’s place was perfect for our family of 4! It was stocked with everything we needed and super clean. The house was walking distance to downtown Mystic and only a 5 minute drive to Old Mystic Village and the aquarium. Highly recommend!
The house was very clean and the beds comfy. The only slight difficulty we had was with parking as we have a larger SUV. The driveway was tight with our vehicle and the long term resident's vehicle. It was great being so close to main street and the other attractions!
Lovely home close to downtown Mystic and Mystic Seaport Museum
This house was perfect for our family (me, my husband, our infant, toddler, and 4-year old)!! The house was very clean, had great amenities, and had central air which was nice on hot days. It is close to downtown Mystic and the Mystic Seaport Museum which was awesome. We would definitely stay here again!!

Newly remodeled!
This condo was very nicely decorated and comfortably appointed. It was very generously stocked with amenities. The beds were comfortable. It is centrally located and within walking distance to the Seaport and downtown.
Place is great! Very well equiped. Very clean and cute. Convenient location. Ram, the owner was great, very responsive. Had a welcome basket for us. Walking distance to so many places! Would love to stay again!
I stayed for two nights with my husband and parents. The place was very clean and well located. Definitely within walking distance of downtown Mystic. Great amenities- spent some time in the back yard and appreciated the updated appliances and decor. If we plan to visit the area again, will definitely want to rent this place again!

Excellent Location!
We had a great time! The house is conveniently located within walking distance to everything (5 min walk to drawbridge). The pictures are accurate, house is immaculate and well curated. The host, Ram, had a welcome basket with snacks and waters waiting for us. Every amenity you could possibly need. Perfect for our family! Would stay there again in the future.
The property was very clean, comfortable and inviting. We had a bit of difficulty getting the door to unlock initially, though the owner was extremely quick in his communication and gave us an immediate solution, with no further issues. The house was close to everything. Parking was a bit tight, as two cars share one driveway but we made it work. Street parking was suggested but we didn't really see anywhere on the street to park. Kitchen had everything we needed and beds were comfortable. Overall, great stay!

Great Stay in Mystic
This home was perfect for our small family stay in Mystic. I traveled with my husband and our 19 month old baby and we were all very comfortable here. The accommodations were wonderful, the home (kitchen, bedrooms, bathroom, living space) were all very clean when we arrived, and the host was extremely friendly and easy to communicate with.
The location of the home was also perfect as it was walking distance to many great, local eateries and the main strip of town - also a short drive to the Mystic Aquarium. I would absolutely recommend this home to anyone considering a stay in the area!
Everything was great- super clean and comfortable. Short, pretty walk to downtown Mystic. Liked having off-street parking, however the driveway is narrow- I would have taken our smaller car if I knew ahead of time. It wasn’t a problem though- just wasn’t used to that.
Enjoyed a long weekend here to celebrate Mother's Day with my mom. We both felt the space was perfectly appointed and in a great location. The white noise machine in the front bedroom was a thoughtful touch that effectively covered road noise at night. Although we ate out during our stay, the kitchen was stocked with what you would need to cook, if you wanted to. We opted to park at the dentist's office across the street rather than stress at all about sharing the driveway with the upstairs tenant. It was easy peasy and a great option available Friday-Sunday. I would highly recommend a stay here if you want to be within walking distance to tons to do, but in an area that doesnt feel overwhelmingly bustling. Thanks Ram!

Fantastic Stay!
We had a great time! The house is conveniently located within walking distance to downtown Mystic (5-10 min walk to drawbridge). The pictures are accurate, house is immaculate, had great amenities along with central air. The house is located so close to everything as we also visited the Olde Mistick Village. This was another great area to walk the shops and grab some lunch and dinner. Make sure you go to Trattoria Amalfi as it is one of the best homemade Italian restaurants I have been to. The host, Ram, had a welcome basket with snacks and waters waiting for us and was fantastic with a few questions we had . When we plan to visit the area again, will definitely want to rent this place!
