The Capitol Hotel

8/10 Good

"The overall experience was good, however a fire alarm woke us up at 6:30 in the morning. Unfortunately we stayed at the top floor and my partner on a walker would not have been able to negotiate the fire stairs. I had indicated with the reservation that I am traveling with a handicapped person and it looked like we had an handicapped accessible bathroom. Wish we would have been accommodated in a lower floor. Thank god the alarm was a failed one (something burned in the kitchen, we were told)"

Marriott Hartford/Windsor Airport

6/10 Okay

"Only think l have with this hotel is no continental breakfast and the breakfast that we did order. It was cold and didn't have The Economist with it. The coffee maker didn't work. Overall, the stay was nice. And I was comfortable, and there was no microwave, which I would think that should be one of the amenities that they have in the room. In case if you don't want to go out, you want to warm up your food inside instead of going all the way downstairs to the 1st floor to warm up your food. That part didn't make sense to me."

Comfort Inn & Suites East Hartford - Hartford

8/10 Good

"Exceeded expectations! (My expectations were bleak). < The mattress was soft, but OK. < The bathroom was minuscule, but functional. < Dressing area, washroom, and bathroom lights are excessively high-beam headlight bright, which was really annoying because there wasn’t a “nite light” option. << Bottom line: I will stay there again when in the area"

Woodspring Suites Newington - Hartford South

2/10 Terrible

"If you enjoy watching homeless people fight in the parking lot, this is the place for you. If you wish to get acquainted with the local police just so you can get out of your vehicle in the parking lot without being accosted or hurt by said fighting people, please stay here. The staff are rude. The entire trip was nothing short of a nightmare. Moved hotels less than 24 hours later and forfeited money to get away from this place. Avoid like the plague."
