Mystic Adventure.

The best part of this hotel is location and the nice staff. Very close to the attractions in Mystic. But, it's very old and not the cleanest(odd odors abound, too). They also have minimal accommodations. But, for a short stay, it does it's job and we still rested well here.
Shawn, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The property needs a little more work on the outside of the property. But the staff at the front desk she was fantastic

10/10 Exceptional

Great Location!

The beds and pillows are comfortable. There is ample parking. The people working at the hotel are super friendly. Shahid went above and beyond to correct a few issues I had with the room like a drain stopper and iron. This hotel is in the same parking lot as the Mystic Diner that has a great atmosphere and great food. Across the street is the Old Mystic Village shops which you can walk over to. I was planning to visit other parts of CT, but added an extra day because it was such a nice area.
Rosalie, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Dated but clean and comfortable, food options close by, we frequented the nearby diner mostly. Enjoyed the private balcony and noise was not bad considering proximity to highway. Anything we needed for room we just asked. Clerk was having technical difficulties when we arrived and could not check us in, but was resolved while we parked and went for a bite to eat. Pool was nice after a hot day. Good central location

Lots of charm and character

Beautiful old, charming building in a great location! Expect all the delights, quirks, and character of staying in a building on the National Register of Historic Places. The beds were very comfortable and the air conditioning was able to keep up with a 95 degree day. We really enjoyed our stay!
Aubrey, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

A Solid Value

7/10. This hotel is a little beat up and outdated but the location is amazing (across the street from Olde Mystic Village) and the beds are very comfortable, at least mine was, and I slept very well here. The microwave and fridge were very convenient. Being extremely affordable, I will stay here again when visiting the Mystic area.

This Howard Johnson is horrible dirty & smelly check in staff was friendly & nice as soon as we got to the entrance door they directed us to i gag & wanted to puke hotels.com should remove the property from its site & I also inform Wyndham that the property is tarnishing to their name
Lisa, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

Hotel is in poor condition. Room was filthy even after switching rooms . I will never stay here again unless there is a major renovation. Found several dead bugs as well ( not bed bugs thankfully) . Hallways smell like marijuana .
Sarah, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Worst. Place. Ever.

Terrible experience across the board. Hotel not even close to as advertised. Filthy, unsafe, no assistance to be found on premise, as a sign was left at front desk to just “check yourself out” if need be. We opened the room door and left immediately after. Will never go back again. Hotels.com shouldn’t even associate their name with this establishment and the hotels.com team has yet to provide any assistance also.

There was a silverfish bug that came out of the drain. Didn't use the shower because of it.
Cheryl, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Not bad

We liked staying at the hotel it could use some updates, but other than that it wasn’t hard we liked our room and I like that we could sit outside. Only thing we didn’t like was that it needed to be updated so I can look cleaner.

DO NOT STAY AT HOWARD JOHNSON MYSTIC

The Night Manager did not want to change our room when we specifically told him the A/C was not working properly. I said please change our room, he would not. Using the excuse that he checked and it was fine. We want back it was not fine. We asked for another room, he said NO. I had two rooms, we left we did not even stay the night. It was a two noght stay. We relocated down the road at a BEST WESTERN, 100x times better. They said they get people who leave HJ constantly.
