It's a Best Western conveniently located near the interstate. It's easy to get into the cute town of Mystic which is a fun place to visit.

Suite was ok.
Room was clean, but be warned: our suite only had one bathroom. Sleeping arrangements were fine, but eating and using the bathroom were nightmare situations.
The continental breakfast was decent, but was a repeat of the same few items every morning.
Overall, the stay was fine.

Awesome place to stay! Exceptional!
This was the nicest Best Western that we ever stayed in. Very clean. No smell what so ever in the whole place. Even the towels had no detergent smell. And my sister is very sensitive to smells and use to staying in high end places. Best of all: great mattresses and pillows. Good breakfast selections. Pleasant employees. Great place to stay and close to everything in Mystic.
