Everything with our stay was great. The apartment is cute.The bottle of wine as a welcome gift was a much appreciated surprise. The apartment is within walking distance of shopping and great restaurants. We took advantage of not needing a vehicle to grab a bite to eat. We did cook in a few times and found that the apartment was equipped with everything we needed to make a meal.The only "issue" some might have with the apartment is the noise of people walking above. This is clearly disclosed in the listing and we did not find it bothersome at all. Overall, a great basecamp to explore Mystic and the area.
We had a wonderful stay. It was located close to shops and restaurants. It was a memorable weekend with my family . Would definitely like to revisit in the future. It was a quick and easy check in, clean and beautifully decorated, would recommend to family and friends.
Overall it was a nice place to stay. The location was great and walkable to downtown. The description said first floor, which I suppose it is but technically itâs ground level so itâs partially underneath. You definitely got that feeling, and it felt alittle musty. The description also mentioned it being an old building and it being noisy which it definitely was however the people did stop running around by 10pm.
Everything was great, if you want to enjoy Old Mystic and not stress over parking and very slow moving traffic this place canât be beat. Nicely updated and great communication with the owners.
Fantastic location within a short walking distance of great restaurants, shops, and downtown Mystic. Made getting in and out of town very simple not having to worry about parking. Host was very quick and easy to communicate with. Great spot for our weekend getaway!
Impossible to be better located, clean comfortable, great AC, excellent amenities and a thoughtful welcome gift. Great communication. As someone from mystic, this is the best place
If I could give 4.5 stars, I would. The property is conveniently located. Close enough that we could walk to everything (except the aquarium) but far enough that you don't hear the sounds of downtown. The apartment/grounds are spotless. The kitchen has everything you need if you want to cook. The AC worked great to keep humidity down and the place cool. There is a Keurig coffee maker with a few pods to get you through your first night.
Let me share some insights that I wish I had known before. These are not deal-breakers, but being aware of them can enhance your stay.
(1) As the owner describes this is one of a few apartments in a large historic home and sound travels. We did not hear any voices, TV, etc. Everyone respected quiet hours. But... this is the ground floor apartment. So we could hear loud footsteps above us. If that bothers you, consider reserving one of the apartments in this house that is not below another apartment, or bring some foam earplugs. If you stay on a top floor - don't walk on your heels.
(2) To keep the apartment smelling fresh, they either use a cleaning product or scented damp rid. If you are sensitive to smell, bring allergy pills or Tylenol.
(3) There is a dresser. No closet to hang clothes. But there are hooks near the front door and an iron and ironing board. If you have clothes that you must hang, bring a hanger.
These are so minor, but good to know.
Recently stayed while visiting family in the area and this property is great. Just as advertised, clean, all the amenities you could need and an awesome location in downtown Mystic. Hope to stay again next year.
need instructions for the air cond/heater
could have used a salt/pepper shaker
couple more towels would have been nice
network was slow and you can't use the tv in living room when bdr tv is used, they both have the same type of remotes may be the problem. other bdr tv was fine
back yard could have used better patio furniture
In town for a family reunion so just needed a place to sleep and have breakfast. The location was excellent and private parking was great. Two minute walk to Sift, the Oyster Club and Daniel Packer Tavern. The apartment was clean and roomy. AC was great. Shower was awesome. Needs two more dining room chairs. We enjoyed sitting in the back yard having coffee in the morning watching the joggers go by. If youâre just looking for a good place to sleep with a great location this is it.
The property is very clean and quiet. It is steps from downtown and itâs scenic. We stayed during the winter and we are looking forward to return during this summer.
We really enjoyed this stay. Gorgeous historic home impeccably renovated directly in the heart of one of the prettiest towns in N.E., Mystic, CT. Check it out!
