Close to interstate, knowledgeable staff, ok room, ok breakfast. The towel holder in the bathroom was rusted, and the toilet sat really low. We asked for 2 queens through Expedia, but received a junior suite. Per staff, that is what Expedia booked for us.

This hotel is in a great location. Just off the freeway. A quiet street. Just across from Brainard Airport. Close to both Hartford and Old Wethersfield. Parking can get tight if the hotel is fully booked but I had no issues. The staff is super nice. Breakfast is served daily and there is 24/7 coffee available. Which is really nice. The room was spacious and clean. The shower pressure was amazing. I had an issue with my toilet running and maintenance came and fixed it quickly. I would definitely stay here again
