The Captain Stannard house is a true gem in Westbrook. There are many restaurants, shops, parks, and beaches close by. The property has a private yard and a large rear porch for relaxation. My room was impeccably clean and spacious for being the smallest one in the house. Dianne was incredibly sweet and went out of her way to help all the guests.

friendly staff and welcome on arrival, tastefully decorated. comfortable and relaxed. Breakfast could be improved, A place of this caliber, I would expect fresh bread and toast, sweet butter, eggs to order, rather than the packaged food service microwave prepared hash browns, sausage slice and packaged mini quiche tarts. The caned tangerine accented with mint was refreshing. good coffee.

We live locally however needed a New Haven hotel for our wedding guests as well as ourselves. The Blake was perfect! A beautiful property centrally located to downtown, Yale, and the entertainment area of the city.
I would highly recommend this property to anyone visiting the city!

My stay was perfect. This family run hotel is outstanding, and great value for the money. Room (facing pool) was large, quiet and in perfect condition. Small private terrace with lounge chairs a big plus. Bathroom is large and modern with 5 star amenities (I appreciate that). Entire hotel feels like it was recently renovated. Will definitely stay here again!

It’s a nice hotel, it has a funky vibe to it and it’s very clean and the rooms are excellent. I definitely recommend it’s the perfect couple gate away hotel. Definitely coming back!!

We truly had a terrific experience.
We drove New Jersey with my granddaughter who is doing her sevond Master’s Degree in Scotland.
She needed Research materials at the Yale Library. We arrived at The Study at 10 am instead of the 3 pm check in.
The front desk clerks were exceptional and said our rooms were ready! The breakfast and dinner we had in the Study restaurant were delicious. The two king rooms were clean and large with a desk and a large leather chair and haddock. We were very...
