What seems at first to be a run of the mill, potentiallly lower end establishment, turned out to be well worth the value in convenience, cleanliness, with a great staff. Definitely recommend if you are in the area, especially for a shorter stay.

The location is perfect for Fairfield University events. We had a great stay for the age of the hotel. It’s in great shape and we really appreciate it the maid service the free bottle, water, and the fridge in our room. I would recommend staying here.
