Spring Hill Inn

My husband’s family grew up here and they remembered this Inn as children. Of course, we decided to stay here for a memorial service of a dear friend of theirs. This is a charming bed and breakfast. Clean, the linens, pillows and bed are comfortable. You have to wait a little bit for the hot water before you hop in the shower—otherwise, you would think there’s no hot water! (that’s what our other companion thought and ended up using our room’s shower). The room was cold when we arrived, but my husband found the thermostat and adjusted the heat. This is an old inn, so the floorboards are sometimes squeaking when you walk. It is not good for elderly people who have problems with stairs because the rooms are on the second floor. The hand soap though was so watery it needed a new bottle. Some reviewers had written about the wonderful breakfast served here. Perhaps that was years ago, because our breakfast was downstairs in the “lounge”. Store bought muffins, K-coffee, bananas/apples, store bought granola. It would have been nicer if it was put on some nice containers (at least for the granola). There is a restaurant (seems like it is not part of the B&B—but they have menus in the room). Went there for a cocktail and was told we had to move to the lounge area because they close at 9pm.

Beautiful inn and felt very safe. My daughter and I were there to visit UCONN early the next morning and this Inn caught my eye. It is extremely close to campus which was a plus. Easiest check in and out ever at a place. The beds snd comforters were the most comfortable I have seen at a place outside my home. It is so nice that you can grab a snack 24/7 as they left the items for breakfast out that night and in the refrigerator. The only negative that I had is I wish there was a way to control the heat in our room as it was a bit chilly the next morning when it was 17 degrees outside.
