“UGH. Smelled like burnt toast.”

Location is convenient to the highway, but not much else. Single women should be cautious. Front desk staff not very helpful: asked for change, they didn't have any. Asked for directions to town: "get on the highway"; when asked how to get to our room, it was just a general finger point down a hall (It was actually down the hall, around two corners and up a set of stairs, through a door and around another corner---and no elevators). The public computer (at least they had one) did not have a printer, so if you want to check in with your airlines, you can't preprint a boarding pass.
When we got our key, we found the hallways of the hotel to be dingy, hot, muggy and smelled like burnt toast. The hall decor was tired; newspaper machines were never restocked. Our room was right behind that hall door and every time someone went through that door, it banged into the wall---right where our heads were. It poured rain one night and the downspouts were right outside our window. LOUD. Housekeeping forgot to refill something every day--no coffee one day; no new towels one day. The rooms were otherwise standard issue; bathrooms a little dated and the light switches strange.
When we were leaving, they did have a small note up that said they were starting a remodel, but I'd call before I booked this hotel again.

“You have to stay for yourself”

Best Western Stony Creek Inn Suites

Aug 11, 2008

My wife and I, along with our 18 mth old son spent an overnight here. When we arrived we noticed a lot of work being done to the place; we thought at least they're trying to make it look good. We started the checking in process and Amy the young lady who runs the hotel gave us a free upgrade to a suite; I want to make mention the upgrade was not based on a negative reason. The room was great and met out needs, especially with having a baby. The indoor pool was great, the continental breakfast was awesome! The personal were very, very helpful. I do agree with the other reviews on the rooms needing a more modern look to them but for an overnight stay you can not beat the price. There is a Dunkin Donuts, Friendly's and Stop-n-Shop arcoss the street...you can't go wrong.

My husband and I have stayed at better Best Westerns before, but this one paled a little in comparison. The accommodations were clean and the continental breakfast was pretty good, but the entire hotel was very warm, other than the room, where we had our own a/c. The free WiFi was great, but the washer and dryer in the building wouldn't work (we had some swimsuits we wanted to wash, but couldn't). Also, the indoor pool was closed for renovations. There was also work being done on the exterior of the hotel, but nothing that bothered us. We would stay here again if we had to, but we recommend considering other options first. However, great deal for the price, considering the area.

“Not bad for the price and close to route 95, a bit dated and had bad odor”

1/1 found this review helpful

Depsite what you read on the previous reviews, this spot wasn't that bad. We stayed here on our way down to NYC and it is right next to Route 95 in small Brandford CT. The staff was family owned and friendly and very helpful. The lobby was small and clean and presentable. The hotel is situated in a office park and close to restaurants. The price was about right for the room that you get. The rooms were comfortable and clean and the bathrooms were very nice. The beds were comfortable as well. The continental breakfast was a joke, not having much at all and the pool area was filled with kids that paid a fee to get in to just swim, so beware of that. The big thing I would say Iabout this place is that it is a bit dated and needs some upgrading and the hallways smell something awfull. Almost a body odor/food cooking smell. Not a pleasant smell at all and not one that I wanted to smell at 10 at night. Other than that, not a bad stay!
