This is one of our favorite places to stay when we're in Connecticut no question about it. The…read morelocation is perfect, so perfect you can ride a bicycle to the beach. I wouldn't say close enough to walk, especially if you are bringing chairs, coolers, food, etc. You are within minutes drive to restaurants, gas stations, grocery stores, etc for all your shopping needs. Beech Tree also has a little shop that have some drinks, trinkets, clothes, decor, etc. that my fiance says is adorable, cute, etc. If you love going to the beach and want to stay at a place owned by some nice people rather than some big corporately owned motel/hotel with no personality or character, check this place out! You won't be disappointed. We haven't, we're planning our 4th trip back here hopefully sooner than later!

Fantastic stay at this bed and breakfast. We came to the coast for just a couple days to see the…read moreWhitfield house in Guilford and, weather permitting, to enjoy a day in the beach. The room is very comfortable and airy with windows on two walls, and quiet. The bed is very comfortable with nice feeling sheets resulting in a restful sleep both nights. The bathroom is well lit and has a walk in shower, with fantastic water pressure. The proprietor, Victoria, is exceedingly friendly as well as a wealth of information about the local area including where to eat. I found her descriptions and recommendations to be spot on. Breakfast is elegant. It is casual for the guest, but the table is nicely set and the food is freshly made and delectable. The weather was great during our stay so we got to enjoy a day at the beach. There are beach chairs and beach blankets available to borrow, as well as a parking pass for the Madison beaches. Victoria has really made it easy to enjoy Madison and makes you feel at home. I found everything to be in close proximity. The historical sites in Guilford are about 5 miles and the Madison beaches about 1 mile, and the on-ramp to I-95 is about 1 mile.

The innkeeper was wonderful and friendly. She was very knowledgeable about the local area. The whole place had a laid back atmosphere. There is a complimentary coffee bar available all day, as well as a fridge filled with cold refreshments. The breakfast was delicious. The baked apples and omelets were out of this world good. This quaint B&B is located only a short distance from downtown madison, easily a walkable distance in the summer. All in all I would HIGHLY recommend this place to anyone looking for a cozy getaway

Complementary water in our room and comfy robes. We had a balcony view of the sound that was breathtaking. Mathew at the front desk was welcoming upon arrival and took the time to get to know guests. He was always helpful when we had a question and took his time with us. Never made us feel like we were unimportant. The grounds were well maintained and kept up. Always saw staff maintaining the property. The property had a small private beach with overlook to rocky bluff. The hotel also has spa services for those who want to indulge in a facial or massage. On select Fridays the restaurant has a wine tasting and Al's hosts larger events. Lunch and dinner we sat outside on the covered patio with a beautiful view of the sound. Sydney was friendly and accommodating at dinner. The manager Anthony took good care of us at dinner for substitutions due to food intolerances. The food was excellent we had the short rib and steak frits with a beautifully paired Bordeaux. Lunch we had the crab cakes, house salad and smash burger. Our stay was just what we needed to relax and unwind. A definite revisit in the future.

The venue itself is set on a beautiful location and offered the perfect spot for our outdoor nuptials. The officiant, Bobi, was recommended and she was one of the best parts of the event!

An overnight stay was provided the night before and the night of our event as part of our booking and the room was adorable. It was cozy and had a charm that offered a great atmosphere for getting ready the day of! Whether you are looking for a venue to host an intimate event or a weekend away, Westbrook Inn will not disappoint!

Clinton Motel offers basic, clean lodging. Although not glamorous it did include an ironing board…read moreand a couch which you don't always see at this level. It should be viewed in the context of the infuriating marketplace where most decent hotels are 1) on highways, miles away from towns and water or 2) $600 in the summer. Sorry if I wrote this in another review but it's infuriating that east coasters will say "California has shitty mass transit LOL, here's a profound quote from The Power Broker" and yet you can find OK motels in Redondo Beach or San Diego's Pacific Beach reachable by bus, while the northeast saves the waterfront for private mansions. More to the point, I chose Clinton Motel since it was walkable to a town, albeit a super-small one, that has scenic areas and 1700s houses. And if you don't know about Lobster Landing, now you do (about 1.5 miles from here).

The breakfast could've been better. I'm used to a homemade breakfast when you stay at B&Bs. This was a "continental" breakfast. They did put snacks and drinks out for people to have during the day, which was a nice touch. The place was easy to find and they offered free bicycles to use. There were beach towels and things. You could use the fire pit and corn hole too. They also offered free kayak use down the street. No shortage of things to do.

Went here during a meeting in September…read more I used to live in CT, but had never been here, so I wasn't quite sure what to expect. First of all, I drove to this place from Bradley airport in the middle of the night and got a little lost trying to find it. I drove right past it. My GPS was screaming at me to turn left, but from my rental car, it looked just like a school, but the Mercy Center is a bit farther off the road. So, be warned. Good thing that there's a lot of driveways to turn around in on that street (sorry if I woke you up, folks!). Anyway, I stayed here two nights. It's definitely not a resort or hotel, so don't go in thinking you'll get Four Seasons treatment. You'll need to make your own bed, and take off the sheets when you leave. Phone service and wifi were spotty at best in the rooms. I shared a room with two twin beds and an old-looking bathroom. Nothing was outright dirty, but the rooms were showing their age and there were ant traps in the bathroom. But, mamma mia, the water in the showers was hotter than the lakes in Hades! Damn! I almost burned my arms off. The kitchen in the house was decently appointed, our group was able to make tea and coffee in the morning without any issue. We did have lunch in the main center one day--not bad food, a number of choices: soup, a pasta dish, a fish dish, a salad/fruit bar, and a number of desserts. One of the soups was vegetarian, which was nice. Because it's set off the road, it's very quiet and I really found some good time to think there (and since the doggone wifi was a little wonky, what else was I going to do?). Not necessarily the best place for a work meeting, if you need the conveniences of technology, but definitely good for a spiritual retreat.
