Quality Inn Old Saybrook - Westbrook

8/10 Good
"Room was spacious, comfortable and clean. Overall the hotel was nice. The decorating was a bit off putting and looked like it had been done in the 1970’s and never changed; orange and avocado green with brown carpet. If you can get past that it was a good place to stay. Breakfast was very nice with plenty of hot and cold choices. For me, the fact that it was open from 7:30 til 10 am was very nice. I would stay here again."

10/10 Excellent
"This hotel was so conveniently located on a main road, right off the 495, near so many restaurants and stores and a few minute drive to the wineries and farms. The property was spotless and very nice and accommodating. We had a 2 queen room for a family of 4 and it was perfectly spacious. We have small kids so we used the pool and hot tub. The pool was a little too cold for my liking but my kids had a blast. The hotel was great all around. I am sure we will be back again next fall!"
