We have stayed at many B & B's over the years and rarely find them to be as nice as the website pictures suggest, but Thimble Islands B & B not only met every expectation we had it exceeded them!

I've stayed here at Holiday Inn, Branford CT. several years ago. It was clean & fresh…read more My first impression of the lobby is why are there chairs and small tables right in the center of the lobby where people should be walking through to enter and leave? Why do people have to walk around this? Seems better if it would be by the wall opposite the desk or where computers are. Room pricing: Quirky. I wasn't quoted a specific price per night and it seemed high. I stated it was off season and was told it didn't matter that they can charge different prices or change prices per week or weekend, there's no set amount. What?? Doesn't sound legit. My bill has six different prices per night from $159.99, $174.99, $199.99, $339.99, $155.99, $169.99. Even the room tax was different each night,... $24.00, to $30.00, to $51.00, to 25.50. This bill was perplexing. I really didn't look at it until after I left the state. I had a long drive. My bill total was $1973.32 for 8 nights! WOW!! Crazy!! Room: It was clean but the carpet looks like it needs shampooing. The edge where it meets the tile near the bathroom was frayed from foot traffic. Stepped on the metal edging one night, it didn't feel good on my foot. Time to fix it. Toilet paper is awful, cheap and thin. The TV has limited channels. The button on the room phone for the front desk didn't work. Parking: spaces are tight, your car may get its doors banged if others aren't careful. They say there is security cameras in the lot but I doubt it. Didn't see any cameras. Noise: room doors close hard making a loud noise which causes shaking vibration of walls & bed. Quiet close doors please, people come in and out late night & early morning. Some woman was talking loudly on her cell phone at 2:00am in the hall waking me, then at 7:00 am a refrigerated tractor trailer truck delivering supplies came into the lot stopping right along the west side of the building where my room was. Woke me again. Truck left idling. Maybe I got 5 hours sleep that night. Also delivery trucks unloading at the Ford dealership early in the morning on the west side of hotel. Lights: housekeeping turns on every light in the room / bathroom before leaving. Why? No wonder they charge so much. Overall I was not happy about room pricing, felt I got ripped off, and the noise disturbances in and out of hotel. Hopefully I won't have to come to CT. again. I won't be staying here. Disappointed.

Michael at the Scranton Seahorse Inn provided the best bed and breakfast experience I've ever had…read more From picking my friend and me up personally from the train station to giving us a tour of the town, you could feel his sincerity in making sure each guest felt right at home. The rooms are clean, uniquely decorated, and cozy. My friend and I both slept so well! The inn itself is centrally located to the main town center. It was very easy to walk everywhere, like the bookstore, the train station, and all the local restaurants. Two highlights of the stay: Michael's freshly made breakfast and the two Dalmatian puppies. Harley and Winston came wiggling into the main area and brightened up the day. I hope to return on my next trip to the east coast.

Went here during a meeting in September…read more I used to live in CT, but had never been here, so I wasn't quite sure what to expect. First of all, I drove to this place from Bradley airport in the middle of the night and got a little lost trying to find it. I drove right past it. My GPS was screaming at me to turn left, but from my rental car, it looked just like a school, but the Mercy Center is a bit farther off the road. So, be warned. Good thing that there's a lot of driveways to turn around in on that street (sorry if I woke you up, folks!). Anyway, I stayed here two nights. It's definitely not a resort or hotel, so don't go in thinking you'll get Four Seasons treatment. You'll need to make your own bed, and take off the sheets when you leave. Phone service and wifi were spotty at best in the rooms. I shared a room with two twin beds and an old-looking bathroom. Nothing was outright dirty, but the rooms were showing their age and there were ant traps in the bathroom. But, mamma mia, the water in the showers was hotter than the lakes in Hades! Damn! I almost burned my arms off. The kitchen in the house was decently appointed, our group was able to make tea and coffee in the morning without any issue. We did have lunch in the main center one day--not bad food, a number of choices: soup, a pasta dish, a fish dish, a salad/fruit bar, and a number of desserts. One of the soups was vegetarian, which was nice. Because it's set off the road, it's very quiet and I really found some good time to think there (and since the doggone wifi was a little wonky, what else was I going to do?). Not necessarily the best place for a work meeting, if you need the conveniences of technology, but definitely good for a spiritual retreat.

The Inn is two stories with outdoor entrances and a small lobby in front with coffee and lots of advertisements for local things to do. I don't believe there is an elevator to the second floor. The highway sounds are audible, and the hotel is relatively close. However, it does mean easy off and easy on. There is a gas station and Stop and Shop a short bridge away. If you're looking to eat in the room or get some evening snacks, you have plenty of opportunity there. The best part of the Rodeway Inn though is how clean it is. Extremely white sheets, very little dust, and you can walk with bare feet. For the price range, you're getting a much higher level of cleanliness! I would definitely go back.

The room is very comfortable and airy with windows on two walls, and quiet. The bed is very comfortable with nice feeling sheets resulting in a restful sleep both nights. The bathroom is well lit and has a walk in shower, with fantastic water pressure. The proprietor, Victoria, is exceedingly friendly as well as a wealth of information about the local area including where to eat. I found her descriptions and recommendations to be spot on. Breakfast is elegant. It is casual for the guest, but the table is nicely set and the food is freshly made and delectable. The weather was great during our stay so we got to enjoy a day at the beach. There are beach chairs and beach blankets available to borrow, as well as a parking pass for the Madison beaches. Victoria has really made it easy to enjoy Madison and makes you feel at home. I found everything to be in close proximity. The historical sites in Guilford are about 5 miles and the Madison beaches about 1 mile, and the on-ramp to I-95 is about 1 mile.

I know if…read moreyou've never been here before and visit here and see how God-awful it is, you're all gonna think I'm insane. My friends and I have WAY too many fond memories of this place. So I guess the high star rating is due to being sentimental. We always have a good time here for some strange reason, and we're not even crack heads like most of the other occupants probably are. The hot tub rooms now have flat screen T.V.s and the wash clothes are folded like little starched roses and the towels like swans. I want to laugh out loud as I'm writing this. You know, it's experiencing places like this that build character. :D

Easily the worst hotel I've ever stayed at. I was stuck in…read moreNew Haven without a hotel, all major hotels were booked up for a cycling event. I was forced between this hotel or a $60 uber to another city and I took a chance. I know we all read reviews and think, "only upset people write it and exaggerate." Welp, here's the god's honest truth... I booked at 10:30 at night. When my car got to the hotel, it was about 11:15. The man running the front desk said he saw my reservation, but stated Priceline had not sent him my credit card info. I showed him multiple versions of me paying. (Priceline confirmation, bank statement, apply pay transaction.) He refused to believe me, even though my name was in his computer, then asked me to pay for the room again. Upon asking if I would be charged twice, he then told me to call Priceline myself there was nothing he could do. As I sat on the phone trying to call Priceline, ten minutes in he miraculously finds my information on his computer, then tells me to hang up. From here, he needs basic hotel info, but is now taking 15-20 minutes with endless printing and signing over and over again on what seems to be the same transaction information in different formats. Whatever... let's just get to my room and sleep. I have an early flight out. The room... I mean, it's bad. It's really, really bad. First thing you notice is these are not cleaned regularly and when I mean regularly I assume they rent them out maybe once every few months and do not clean that often or well between. There is a jacuzzi in the corner that is just broken. That should give you warning enough, but the smell of mildew is overwhelming. The furniture looks like it was picked out of dumpster two years ago and smells like it to match. Half the lights don't work and there's mirrors above the bed... yeah that kinda place. There are black spots everywhere. Walls, carpet, sink, sheets. It has to be infested with mold. The bed... bring a tarp. I'll put it this way. I'd sleep on the floor if I thought it was cleaner. There was hair and black spots I can only hope to god is mold, but could be dried blood all over the pillows. I didn't even look under the covers. I took two towels and spread them over the spot I was sleeping and slept in my clothes and the lights on. The bathroom, forget it. If you need to use it for a quick second... it's no better than a port-o-potty on a construction site. I didn't even think about showering or using the water... AT ALL! Now the nightmare begins, I don't know what's going on, but it became clear around one in the morning this is some kind of drug / party hotel for let's say folks down on their luck a bit later in life. ALL NIGHT LONG, until 6-7 in the morning... music blasting, people arguing, slamming doors, running and banging. Any sleep I got was easily interrupted every forty five minutes to a bang, slam, scream or impromptu concert over a speaker. It only stops when the sun comes up. Multiple times I was jolted out of sleep thinking someone was trying to get into my room. And if that's a concern, don't worry your door is as safe as a chain lock that seems to have been busted open over a dozen times. The worst part is I'm 99% sure there's bed bugs. Throughout the night I kept feeling bites on my ankle where my pants were exposed, to the point I tried my best to tuck my kakis in my socks. This place is hell on earth. I'd sooner suggest sleeping on the street or even a dumpster. Someone needs to bulldoze this place five y
