As always, when in this area of CT. I stay at the Lamplighter. Close to the highway, easy walking distance to numerous restaurants. Always very clean, everything works and i did notice the new beds in my room, which were super comfortable. Extremely nice rooms for the price, with fridge and microwave. Shower, instant hot water and plenty of it. I love staying at the Lamplighter.

Very Clean and Quiet 👍

It was only for 2 night stay Very clean ,Great air conditioner, mini fridge near restaurant,stores,gas station and more. The area was very quiet and nice. The owner was very kind. I gave it a 4 stars because there was no room service no coffee maker or microwave. but other than that I will totally recommend it.

Property was convenient to Hammanassett Beach state park, however, the check in process was less than I expected, the room was adequate, however, the bathroom toilet did not flush !! There was no one available to ask for help with that after we checked in at 9 pm.

Lamplighter Motel is a nice stay. It has the basics required and they let you know at check in that they won't be cleaning your room during your stay. This was fine for us. Very clean, comfortable beds, basic bathroom and our room even had a small refrigerator. Room also has cable tv and the shower was great. The check in was easy and the lady at the desk was very nice. The price was great so if you're looking for high end or extra amenities stay somewhere else and pay for that. This was perfect for our two night stay and we would stay again. Very happy with our stay at Lamplighter.
