Top Milford Hotel Reviews

New Haven Hotel

New Haven Hotel

8/10 Good
"Very spacious room. Tired and a bit musty but clean and well-maintained. Lots of room to spread out; bathroom more than adequate. I really appreciated the enclosed, secure garage so close with the use of the footbridge. I do wish I'd been told I needed my room key to get out of the garage - I'd already turned it in. If it wasn't for the parking attendant letting me out, I'd have been stuck running across the street to get my key back from the front desk, all while blocking the exit."
