Stardust Motel

Not as advertised I booked a one night stay at Stardust because of its decent ratings, affordability and convenient location near Foxwoods Casino (where we saw a comedy show). When we came back late at night, after the show, I was disappointed to discover our room's shabby furnishings, sagging soft mattress, and weak shower pressure but accepted these negatives because I knew it was a barebones motel. However, I was horrified by the dirtiness of our room. There were brown stains on the window curtains and it didn't even look like the bathroom had been cleaned from the last occupant's stay. There were stray dark hairs in the shower, dried soap scum on the walls, and my bath towel had large (old) brown stains on it! It was stuffy in the room but we had to turn off the air conditioning because a stale smell was coming out of it. We couldn't open the windows for fresh air because there were no screens on them and we didn't want bugs flying in. We had no idea what the Wifi password was and it was too late at night to ask the front office about it (and complain about the state of our bathroom). The only redeeming quality of our room was that the bed sheets looked clean. I'm not looking to put this place out of business - the owners were friendly enough - but the Stardust Motel is definitely not worth the high ratings that it gets and I wanted to warn others that you will have to lower your cleanliness standards big time if staying at this place.

Good for one nigh! When was the last time this place was reviewed? The place has seen its day. Good for one night only seems clean but is dated . Place of last resort. Next time will check with trip advisor. I booked through AAA and will deal with their rating system.

Not bad for a nights stay We booked the Stardust and it was not a bad stay. Check in was quick. Room was a decent amount for a Saturday night. The room was spacious and clean (bathroom didn't have any towels). We took an Uber to Foxwoods and back for a concert. Check out was easy too

GREAT room, especially for the price Upon driving up, you wouldn't expect much judging by the outside of the motel. The fact that I Paid $50 for the night also had expectations very low. I just needed a place for the night and this was the closest and available. When I opened the door I was pleasantly surprised by the room. You could see immediately that the room was renovated, updated, and actually looked similar to a holiday inn or other 3 star hotel. The bathroom was great, with pedestal sink, nice tile, great look, and shower was was very nice as well. The bathroom also had a heating fan above so morning shower was nice. All of the furnishings looked nice, the bed was very comfortable and Direct TV had over 300 channels. TV was only about 40" but it was fine. The fridge worked well and the war also a microwave oven, though I didn't use it. The ONLY thing missing was wireless internet connection, so I just chilled and watched the celtics game. BTW, I would have paid $100 with no complaints and have stayed at hotels that supposedly were 3 star hotels that were no better than the stardust. I stayed in room 122, not sure for the other rooms, but 122 was great!

Good dollar value It's dated and the beds need upgrading, not stiff enough. The innkeeper Matt was pleasant and easy to business with. The cleanliness was acceptable and its in a very quiet location. Nice to have the doughnut shop just down the road. Lawn and parking lot were clean and neat. If you are just looking to crash for some time and then get back on the road, this is a good place to do it. I got a good nights sleep and I would stay again if I'm ever coming through. Bottom line is it's a $60 room, you get what you pay for.
