NOT the place to stay in Hamden!
Our hotel room did not have a window to the outside, only a window to the hallway, so we felt as if we were in a fishbowl and had to keep the blinds drawn at all times. There was obvious mold in several spots in the bathroom, and even though the entire property was allegedly smoke and marijuana free, there was a pervasive smell
of marijuana in the lobby area, as well as our hallway. We will never stay here again.

Property is a bit tired and a retrofit of an old Howard Johnson motel. Great location. Average lodging at a reasonable price.

Staff are very unfriendly and basically ignore guests. However the restaurant in the parking lot is outstanding if for nothing else that restaurant made the stay here better.

A few monor repairs were needed in our room, nothing major...... Room cleaning services were fine. Great diner across the parking lot with huge menu..... a minute away from the hotel. Two or three minutes from 2 major interstates. Pretty good value. Ive been there 7 times since I moved from the area 12 years ago.

It is conveniently located. Also the Townhouse diner (across the parking lot but not affiliated with the hotel) is very good. Otherwise the hotel is not much to write home about. The hotel needs some work. It’s not the worst place in town, but not the best. It’s an ok value for the money. As long as they keep the price reasonably low, I’m OK that it’s a mediocre hotel.

Ok for the night
Staff was friendly. Breakfast was subpar but free so can’t complain other than about the rotting fruit they put out. Overall, it was quiet and a decent place for the night. We took an Uber for under $20 to get into New Haven for a concert.

This is an old hotel with a new face, I guess. Stayed there more than ten years ago and it was pretty much unchanged inside since then. Carpet needed cleaning, clock was busted, stray wires on the floor, sink bowl was cracked and repaired with silicone. Bed was worn out. I guess for $100.00 it's what I deserved.
