No frills, over priced

The place is ok. If your only concern is being at the boardwalk or hole in the wall beach then it’s fine. They offered a charger and noise machine which were nice touches. Had chairs and toys the kids could use at the beach. However, we booked a “suite” and it was just a small room. The bathroom is very tiny. There is a rug which in this day and age is just gross. The skincare products are nothing great. We wanted an extra blanket and opened the one extra in the closet. Smelled like it hasn’t been washed in a long time. There is no staff after 7 pm so no one for any help unless you want to pay extra for a help call. Then tou had to wash your own dishes or get a fine. If I wanted to do that I would have went to an air bnb for the same cost.

The small touches made this great!

My son and I had a great time. Hotel staff at check-in was absolutely fantastic as well as check out. My son and I travel often and he is 11, and he was so impressed with the little goodie bag he was given when we arrived as well as the peppermints in the room, and the fact that there was a cute little tea tray on the bed with tea and cups. The modern appearance of the rooms and bathroom mixed with these things made my son feel very fancy.

Comfy, clean rooms! Great place to recharge!

My husband and I stayed at the Niantic Inn for 2 nights as a little getaway while our 3 year old stayed with her grandparents. While the inn does offer many amenities, it was very clean, comfortable, and the perfect place to recharge! The smartTV was a great addition as we were able to catch up on our shows on various streaming services! It was also great to be fairly close to Mystic! 10/10 would recommend the Niantic Inn!

A favorite!!

The rooms are so spacious and are equipped with everything you could need. I appreciate the extra floor space, the microwave, the refrigerator, and the storage. Having a little table to work or eat at is such a plus. My favorite part is the little gift bag, and the tray left on the bed for when you arrive

The Inn was a quaint, quiet, comfy place to stay. My husband and I have been visiting our son almost every weekend for the USCGA football games and this our first stay at Niantic Inn. Next year we will try to stay here the majority of games.
