"Excellent staff and very clean facilities, including room, exercise room, and lobby. Backup plans for coffee/gift shop being open should be made as one day it was closed during prime morning hours. Only negative was it's right in the bar zone between Church and Chapel. If you are there Friday or Saturday, plan on being up quite late."

Trumbull Marriott Shelton

8/10 Good
"I would say for the price of a room for only one night that I paid. I think there should be a continental free breakfast for the mornings. And I did have a stranger banging on my hotel door at 3 AM and I tried calling downstairs to the front desk and no one answered. Thankfully, after this man was banging and kicking our door for about five minutes I yelled to him that he had the wrong room and he yelled a room number back and I said you’re in room 233 so he did walk away but I was in the room with 310-year-old little girls and my daughter was terrified and did not sleep the rest of the night. So the only other complaint would be to make sure that security or someone is always around if need be and I feel like I should get some kind of refund or reimbursement or something for the hassle and at $300 per night that is very expensive to not even have a good nights rest and not have a continental breakfast of some kind in the morning. Other than that, it is a very nice hotel it is clean. The staff was very friendly. The girls did enjoy the pool even though the indoor pool did have a very green tint to it, but I think that may have just been the lining of the pool, but otherwise it was a good stay"
