Great place to stay within the area

Was perfect for me safe easy parking and didn’t have a motel feel it was more of a comfortable feeling. The area could be questionable, but I felt secure at the hotel.

Nice stay at Carriage House

We had a great stay at Carriage House. It was clean and comfortable, and they were able to accommodate my late check in with a simple process. The room seems to have been recently renovated and has everything we needed.

We enjoy staying at the Carriage House very much! The owners and staff are very attentive and responsive. The rooms are very fresh clean. The beds are a pleasure to sleep in after a long drive it working day. We stay here all the time when we come to Hamden to visit family.
