Best Western Executive Hotel Of New Haven - West Haven

10/10 Excellent

"Room was clean and quiet and we were right across from the elevator so that says something!!!! Checking in was very easy . Staff was super helpful and friendly!! Only two small areas of small issues. First and there really is nothing to do about it. A parking directly around the hotel is quick to fill up at night. They do have overflow parking up along the street across from gas station. However not the most optimal. We had to park there and there were no issues. The other breakfast was adequate. It's what you'd expect purely Continental well stocked the complaint. Every single Apple had a bruise on it. Not the end of the world. You cut it out however that would be my area when we're in the area for 1000%. Will go back there and stay very reasonable price. Excellent location to the Amtrak trains station. Quiet safe. Great for a mother daughter trip. Highly recommend"
