Location cant be beat. Literally across the street/park from the State Capital. Walking distance to restaurants. Rooms are large and clean. Shower is great. Night manager went out of his way to solve a problem. Parking was excellent! We would definately stay here again.

The view was great, as was the water pressure in the shower. The mattress was hard as a rock, the bathroom was covered in mold, there was barely one blanket, and it was super thin. My key deactivated every time I left the room. The furniture was broken, with drawers hanging open. The towel were tiny and painfully thin. Even the bathroom sink didn’t shut off properly.

Breakfast menu was limited. Coffee machine in room did not work - room 901. Suspect that had been the case for some time! Did not feel the hotel had seen much love in a while. Overpriced for what it was.

Beautiful view of the state capitol bldg. Room was clean and spacious. Room door did not shut fully by itself - had to push/pull to ensure closure. Main treadmill in fitness room not working. Could not access fitness room until 7am since on the same floor as breakfast space which opened at 7am. However, sign on fitness room door indicated room opened at 530am so was ready to use at 6am but was told could not access until 7am. Signage needs to be correctes or access needs to be allowed as indicated. Staff was friendly and overall good stay and value. Will definitely consider again when returning to Hartford.
