I enjoyed staying here. It's a small, simple place. It's very quiet. We arrived late because we decided last minute to stay overnight. I used the phone outside of the door to alert the clerk that I was there to check in. The owners live onsite. I believe I woke her up. I felt bad. She could not have been nicer. It was a great experience. I would not only recommend it, I will be staying there again.

It seems inconsequential but spending $100 for a room that doesn’t even have a toilet paper roll holder is a bit much. Very basic amenities.

Typical beach motel. Had fridge but no coffee maker or microwave. Table with 2 chairs and 1 nite stand. Woodlike floor. Ok for money. Only saw staff on check in. Stayed 2 nite. Was there for funeral, so didnt need to be in room longing

Best and Most reasonable place in South central CT

This is the 2nd year I've stayed at the Lamplighter. Still reasonably priced, still with a microwave and fridge, awesome air conditioner, beds were comfortable, shower worked great with plenty of hot water. Mostly a clean room, for some reason the bathroom windowsill had been cleaned in ages and the bathroom window didnt have a curtain. A back deck could look right in. Will certainly return and will make sure i bring a curtain, next time.

Basic but all good at the vintage Lamplighter!

bare bones beach motel. i liked it but i was there for only one night. they called me - on the room's landline! - half hour before checkout as a courtesy which i didn't pay for. That was nice as i would've overslept. downside - it was cold even with the heat blasting. glad for the 2 beds for the extra blankets.

Toilet stopped up. Security chain attached only to moulding, which had detached from door frame. Towels small and not very absorbent, therefore not enough of them. Shower weak. Bed fairly comfortable and linens were cean.

Property was convenient to Hammanassett Beach state park, however, the check in process was less than I expected, the room was adequate, however, the bathroom toilet did not flush !! There was no one available to ask for help with that after we checked in at 9 pm.

Affordable place to stay. Beds were comfortable but it needs a better cleaning. Found hair in the toilet, an used soap by the bathtub and some hair tie by the bottom of the bed

As always, when in this area of CT. I stay at the Lamplighter. Close to the highway, easy walking distance to numerous restaurants. Always very clean, everything works and i did notice the new beds in my room, which were super comfortable. Extremely nice rooms for the price, with fridge and microwave. Shower, instant hot water and plenty of it. I love staying at the Lamplighter.
