Joining the ribbon-cutting are Simon McDonald, the director of membership and marketing at the Milford Regional Chamber of Commerce, and West Haven Economic Development Director Steve Fontana.

The afternoon ceremony was also marked by chamber President and CEO Michael Moses and chamber board members Robert Creigh and Erin Eberhardt, the owner of West Shore Associates of West Haven.

The chamber-organized event featured welcoming remarks by Borer, McDonald and the Patels, who said they invested $2 million into renovating the former Super 8 motel into a new Quality Inn hotel with modern amenities.

Among the renovations are a new roof, siding and windows, as well as new rooms.

The two-story hotel is located off Interstate 95 and is tucked away on Kimberly Avenue near City Point Yacht Club and the Officer Robert Vincent Fumiatti Memorial Bridge, which connects West Haven and New Haven.
