The place is very nice, a lot of stairs for us, but we rallied. No TV was odd, but not a problem. We had a bit of a paranormal incident, it did give us pause, but didn’t let it scare us away.

Cutest apartment in a great location!

Loved staying here! The apartment was so adorable and perfectly clean. Location was great to walk to everything in Mystic. Only thing was the restaurant downstairs stays open later than anticipated with live music but wasn’t really an issue, just unexpected. Overall loved it and would definitely stay there again!

Magic in Mystic

We decided to take an impromptu trip to Mystic for New Year’s Eve and got lucky to score this property for our stay. Just a beautiful, interesting space, convenient to all. Thanks to warm sunshine and a shockingly mild Jan 1 temp, we super enjoyed sitting on the balcony having our coffee with a water view. Really could not have been better, other than there being no creamer for said coffee, but alas, we should have brought some. Highly recommend.

Modern, Comfy, Water-View Apartment in the Best Location in Mystic

I spent a month, living and working, in this spacious, top-floor apartment and it was the perfect blend of comfort, location, and an idyllic view. The apartment is perfectly located a short walk from all of the restaurants and bars in downtown Mystic, with Mystic Seaport just a little bit farther. It's also directly above what I consider to be both the best restaurant and cocktail bar, Port of Call, in the area. The modern design and classy decor made it such an appealing place to spend time in. The huge, comfortable bed made it difficult to want to get up in the morning. I spent most evenings reading on the plush leather couch. My girlfriend visited for two weeks and the space was more than enough for the two of us to comfortably share. From the balcony, there's a great view of the Mystic River, where you can see all of the sailboats passing up and down from the drawbridge in the center of town. The description and reviews mentioned potential noise issues from the bar and restaurant in the same building, but from the top floor, I barely noticed any noise at all. The few times I did hear anything, it only encouraged me to take the short walk downstairs to listen to the ridiculously talented piano player or amazing jazz band playing below. Most of all, Alden was fantastic. She did a great job of being attentive and helpful, while also being unobtrusive. She made sure that I had everything I needed... from apartment amenities to great recommendations in town. She takes very good care of the place and it shows. Overall, I had a great experience, not just in Mystic, but staying in this wonderful apartment. I do hope to get back there for another month, and I couldn't imagine staying anyplace else.
