We were only staying one night (loved Mystic, visited Mystic Seaport, but only had 10 days to visit the region.). Looking for value, we were only concerned about a clean, smoke-free room and a good bed. The bed was good, the room standard, acceptable Interstate Modern. The only thing nonsmoking about the room was the sign on the door. When... More

This hotel is a great value. You can stay at a fancier place like the Residence Inn and pay a lot more but for those of us needing a good bed and friendly service for ourselves and family this place is perfect. Great location right off I-95 and close to everything. Two restaurants three minute walk. Big enclosed pool. I... More

Positives: Clean room, proximity to aquarium, swimming pool, polite and courteous staff Negatives: Noticeable cigarette odor in non-smoking rooms, even if situated away from the couple of smoking rooms in the premises (these interestingly share the corridor with a bunch of non-smoking rooms - go figure - darn, cigarette smoke does not respect boundaries); overpriced if over $80/night; rooms that...

The hotel was well located with comfortable beds at a reasonable rate with friendly, informed staff. However, it is very rundown and needs serious updating. Our room was very shabby and felt dirty. There are plenty of other moderately priced hotels in the same location worth exploring first. More

Check in at this HoJo is 4pm. I arrived at 3:40pm and was told that my room wasn't ready and I should come back in 45 minutes. I wasn't too happy about this but figured okay it's the end of school break week they must be busy. When we finally did check in at 4:45pm there was only 1 towel... More

After reading the reviews here on TripAdvisor (which weren’t to intimidating) my fiancé and I decided to stay at Howard Johnson, hoping to visit the local aquarium, beach and Old Mystic Village. One of the reviews stated that they had arrived early at the hotel and weren’t able to placed into a room until exactly 4 (check in time). Knowing... More

Excellent hotel for family on budget w/ kids. Nice pool - not huge but just enough for two active boys. Great beds in the rooms, rooms very spacious. CLOSE to every attraction in Mystic. Great mini vacation . More

I travel to Mystic 3 to 4 times a year and usually stay here. It's in a great location, right off the highway, and near lots of restaurants and attractions.
