Days Inn by Wyndham Windsor Locks / Bradley Intl Airport
The location is very convenient for the airport. The facility and room was very clean. The only issue I had was the limited selection for breakfast. I have been to numerous other Days Inn properties and the selection was better. I did find something to eat. I had just expected more.
