We had a great stay here in Mystic. The location was hard to beat. We parked when we arrived and barely needed the car after that since downtown, the shops, restaurants, and bars were all just a short walk away.The place was exactly what we were hoping for. It was very clean, comfortable, and had a lot of thoughtful touches that made the stay even better. Everything was well stocked, and it was easy to feel at home.If you’re looking for a place that’s close to everything Mystic has to offer, I’d definitely recommend staying here. We’d absolutely book it again.

Our stay was wonderful from even before we got there. We were coming in before a blizzard and Mike reached out to us the day before to warn us and see if we needed any help. The appartment was super clean and had everything we needed and more. We were there for about 5 weeks, and enjoyed every minute! Mike is the best host we have ever had!

The whole space was incredibly clean, and had all necessary amenities and more. Of note, the space is impeccably decorated and stocked with all essentials. We are already talking about returning to mystic and staying with this host again!

Stayed here with my spouse for a business/pleasure trip—he was at a conference part of each day and we explored the area each afternoon/evening. This property is impeccably clean, well-stocked with essentials, and a convenient base for visiting Mystic. We were in Unit 3, which provided the perfect living, kitchen, dining, and sleeping space for two. The bathroom is compact because this is an historic building where indoor plumbing for multiple units was an afterthought, but it’s clean and new and has a great little shower. The stairs to the second floor are on the steep side, so I’d stick with a ground floor unit if that’s an issue for you. (We had no problem.). The parking spaces in the driveway are snug (the host says that larger vehicles will need to park on the street) but worked just fine for our smaller Subaru. The host’s communication was timely, thorough, and helpful—he even checked to see if we had made dinner plans for our first night and then called the restaurant we planned to try on our behalf to confirm that they weren’t taking reservations and were indeed first-come, first-served through the summer. We opted for this property rather than staying at the outlying conference hotel. We paid 4/day more for this property than we would have for the hotel and were extremely pleased with our decision. We recommend this property and would definitely stay again.

Exceptional place to stay when visiting the Mystic area. It’s just a short walk to downtown shopping and several great restaurants, which made everything very convenient.We especially enjoyed the local church bells—they played music throughout the day but stayed quiet at night, which was perfect.When we arrived, the apartment was spotless, well-furnished, and very welcoming. The digital entry was simple and hassle-free. The kitchen was fantastic, stocked with quality dishes, and we absolutely loved the espresso machine. Having a stacked washer and dryer was also a great bonus.We drove a midsize SUV and had no trouble parking, as long as everyone pulled forward and stayed within the marked brick outlines in the gravel area.Sometimes when traveling you expect a few rough edges, but everything here was truly top-notch. Mike was very responsive and answered all of our questions quickly.We would absolutely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Mike Gabriele

Host profile image
Hi, I'm Mike. I grew up just over the line in Rhode Island and I have deep connections to the area. As a young adult I moved south, which was fine for a while but sometimes you have to leave home to appreciate the specialness of where you came from.

Time slows down here along the coast. If you allow yourself to become part of it, you too will return again.

Why they chose this property

I feel truly lucky to own a home in such a beautiful spot right in Mystic! Although the house was built in 1845, most of the original elements were gone when I bought the house a few years ago. The property has been a multi-family home for many decades. It has been fun remodeling and giving each of the units a unique look. Hopefully you will come back and have a stay in all of them!
