The room is lacking things that most other hotels have, such as a trash can besides a tiny one in the bathroom and a “do not disturb” sign. Elevator wasn’t working during the night. No continental breakfast, very few amenities. Guests in the hallway were very noisy very early in the morning, it seems like the walls and doors are pretty thin. Cable TV only, no streaming available. Certainly not worth the price of the room, IMO.

I had a wonderful stay at Hotel Calista. The room was nice and clean. The bed was extremely comfortable as well. I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking to stay in the area especially if you are going to go to Mohegan Sun.

I stayed at Callista Hotel for the weekend while attending the Pickle Festival nearby. The hotel itself is not your typical setup, it looks more like an old Victorian-style home than a modern hotel. When I arrived, the area felt pretty deserted. There’s no staff to greet you at the door; instead, you press a button and the door opens automatically, which felt a bit eerie. I even had to call the front desk because I wasn’t sure anyone was there. I was actually scared to go inside. Check-in was quick, and the one front desk worker I saw all weekend was helpful. Once inside, the hallways and room were surprisingly nice, modern furniture, a huge bed, and a great shower with strong water pressure. I personally liked the firm mattress, but it might be too hard for others. The downside: the bathroom has some questionable stains on the wall and the floor had a lot of hair from the previous guest, which was gross and made the room feel unclean. Also, the area around the hotel is very quiet, no stores or restaurants in walking distance, and an abandoned building across the street didn’t help the vibe. Overall, it served its purpose for a short stay, but the eerie atmosphere and cleanliness issues bring my rating down to a 3 out of 5. Great if you’re attending a nearby event, but probably not ideal for a longer or more relaxing stay.

The manager/owner was the only staff. Elevator was, at times, not working. Key card had to be reprogrammed. Also, would not allow early check in and did not have a secure space for luggage.

I thought the property was really cute, liked the art deco lobby with the chandeliers and liked the stripes on the walls of the room floors, also liked that there were names for each room. We chose the double bed room to save money and it was perfect for our needs. The room was a little small and the bed was a bit high and it could have used one more chair plus the toilet seat was loose but all in all, I really liked this hotel.

In a pretty odd place, not a lot of beautiful surroundings but the hotel itself was nice and clean. Very new, and not a lot of foot traffic but still pretty good. Very noisy though, due to the ice machine.
