We talked to the front desk about our heating unit being a little noisy and they REPLACED THE ENTIRE THING in 20 mins. Wonderful service and very nice. The place was very clean with updates, especially for the price

From 1 am until 3:45 am it sounded like the people upstairs were running a marathon in Work boots. I called the front desk at least three times, and they did nothing. On the third time they offered to let me check out and get my money back. It was 3:46 AM in the morning. Where was I going at 3:46 AM in the morning? Their solution was to ask me to leave, not the people upstairs that we’re making all the noise. So I started screaming at the top of my lungs for them to shut the —— up, and finally got quite enough for me to fall asleep. They woke me up at 7:30 with their loud marathon. We will never come back to this place again. Their service is terrible.

I only stayed for one night, but was pleasantly surprised at the spacious room, (I stayed in the king room) and for an affordable option, o sleep well and has everything you would need, including a full size fridge. It had a nice tv also. The reviews didn’t steer me wrong.

The front desk staff was very nice, they let me know after 11pm there was no staff on duty and that the keys would unlock the front door after 11pm. The room was clean, modern, and comfortable. It had a FULL size fridge, microwave, and modern Quartz sink counters. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a clean, safe place to stay. The price was very reasonable under $90 WITH taxes included. Affordable and Clean will have our family coming back next time.

I enjoyed my stay. Room was clean and spacious. Full size fridge was a pleasant surprise. Comfortable bed, big TV and nice bathroom. It was close to the highway and to a main road which gave me two easy made getting to Mohegan Sun. Fast food restaurants and convenient stores nearby. Definitely got more than my money's worth from this inn.

If you look on maps, it says this property is permanently closed. However, this property is the most open and functional property I have seen in the Groton area. The room I stayed in was recently re-done. The bathtub still had a sticker on it. It’s so clean. is a nice little family that owns the property and we love to support local businesses. Keep up the good work guys I hope to see you soon.

It was an ok stay but they were very stingy with the towels. The towels were perfect for a baby but not for adults. Other than that it was ok for the price
