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 surprisingly new inside for the price. Very clean. Could hear people walking upstairs but that is to be expected with most hotels.

Semi decent no frills hotel
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

Clean, decent size room but very basic, there wasn't even shampoo in the room. Externally looked very sketchy. Super thin walls/floors, could hear everyone else walking around in other rooms. Served the purpose for one night but wouldn't stay there again.

4/10 Fair

Staff and room was good the hotel was hardly book and yet guests were put in the room next door that were loud and rowdy all night that between the guests next door the plastic mattress cover and uncomfortable bed did not make for a good stay. Since the front desk staff left at 11 there was no one to report the guests next door to

2/10 Poor

My ac unit went out and I was staying for 2 weeks. They didn’t give us a fan or change our rooms when they said they would. They wouldn’t even compensate us for the HELL we were staying in. Mind you we’re homeless so we had to stay there.

It was a good place to sleep. There were no shampoos, or anything in the room. Just a bar of soap. The hall smelled like weed but the room didn't. If you are just looking for a cheap place to lay your head. This is it.
