Sherwood Island State Park Pet-friendly Vacations

My husband has cancer, and we had to cancel our vacation to accommodate his tests. We live an hour+ away from Stamford, so we thought we'd spend the night there so we wouldn't have to get up early to drive to the testing site. And try to make a fun stay in the middle of this difficult time. So I was disappointed that it wasn't in better shape. Plusses: the room was clean and spacious, the wifi and elevator worked. The sofa was hard but comfy enough, and we watched a couple of TV shows. We didn't use the kitchen, but the counters were damaged. Cosmetic, but it added to a negative overall impression. Minuses: The room smelled of the cleaner hotels use to mask the smell of smoke. The whole place did. The bathroom light was very dim. The shower had a handheld shower head and no door, so the water went everywhere. I cleaned it up. The water temperature was impossible to control and I nearly scalded myself. The toilet made scary noises after flushing, but nothing bad happened. The bedroom lights: 2 out of 5 worked: 1 worked after we jiggled the base and tightened the bulb, the two reading lights didn't work at all. One of them lacked a bulb. The bed was very uncomfortable. Mattress too hard, pillows too soft. I'm a mess of aches today. Breakfast was continental, serve yourself. Your choice of carb, plus coffee, tea, and milk.

This place truly felt like a home away from home. Everything was spotless, comfortable, and well cared for. The location made it easy to access everything we needed, whether dining, shopping, or exploring the area. I would definitely return!

Nice place for a reasonable price. Staff were very helpful and accommodating. Decent breakfast included each morning.

The room was good, not great of an older hotel. The manager/owner was absolutely fantastic and really helped make our visit to NY memorable. He gave us clear directions and helped us in anyway he could. A decent 2-3 star hotel in Yonkers.

Useless Wi-Fi, unusable “closet”, cut my leg on exposed sharp metal sticking out of bed. No premium channels despite what it says here. No coffee in the rooms anymore, not even that cheap.
