Rowayton hotels in Norwalk

"So this is a basic hotel in an expensive town. It wants to be special, but it isn’t. It is honestly a little weird. Here’s my story: Check in: mildly annoyed desk agent would not check me in, spouse name on reservation. Ugh. I booked Expedia so I didn’t think to add myself. So, we are at an impass. But no! There’s an answer! Just call here on your cell, and have her tell us it is ok for you to check in and add yourself to the reservation. Done. Fine. What was the point of that stupid exercise? But, I have permission. Great. Agent then makes a weird production of taking out latex gloves, snapping them on, TO TOUCH MY ID. Ok . Whatever. Hotel is like 1/2 a city block square. I ask: how do I get to my room? Reasonable question. I ask because I see on the way in there is parking all around the hotel. “It’s up the stairs or elevator to floor 2. Follow the signs.” As I walk 5 minutes, I realize I should have driven to the back of the hotel. One of the most bizarre passive aggressive check ins I’ve ever had. Shampoo is a soap bar. Weird Have to ask for hair conditioner (wife’s issue) Weird Breakfast was Ok, but not special. Breakfast area espresso machine was nice. I suspect this is a local event venue, and I’m not local. So Won’t return. "

"Always a great comfortable stay."

"Overall this was a superb stay. Great location for my trip, decent amenities. Was shocked, however, at the non existent internet. It was spotty at best, and mostly zero signal at all. There's no reason not to have solid and consistent internet in this day and age, so definitely should be addressed. Also the hotel promotes the morning breakfast and the in-room materials say "We'll bring a French Press to your room" - implying it was part of the included amenities. Was surprised at the charge for it at check out (especially since whoever prepared it clearly had never prepared a French Press before. The staff was superb - Jeiny, Erickah and Nia in particular. Ordered two meals from the Italian restaurant and both were delicious. Had them delivered to my room (lovely luxury) and want to especially recognize George on the staff there for his professionalism. "

"Clean "

"broken coffee maker in the room"

"Staff there were great, just overwhelmed due to clear understaffing. Poor guy was doing his best to cover everything by himself."
