We were in a bind to find a hotel with kitchen ammenities after a snow storm caused a power outtage at our house and we were left with no heat and a newborn...so we quickly reserved here since all other nearby hotels were booked. The good news is that the room had heat, (which is what we needed) and a... More

Really poor hotel. During check-in, the front desk clerk listed all the things they cannot or will not do: 1) We do not change towels in the room - you have to come pick them up at the front desk. Same goes for toilet paper, soap, shampoo, etc 2) We clean the room only if you have stayed in it... More

I was put up at this place for several days by my company while on a consulting gig in Boston. I was in a handicap accessible room. The shower was POOR with little pressure (on ground floor-excessive flow restriction) and water being barely lukewarm at its highest setting. Bathroom has no hooks to hang clothes, no place to put soap,... More

The only reason we stayed here was because we were on a long, four-day journey to Canada, and our reservations for someplace better were messed up due to a car breakdown that had delayed us by a day. We rolled up to the front, and there were three or four young adults hanging around smoking. Also, a young mom with... More

It's pretty new, so it's clean. A clean room with a kitchen in a good location, that's a bargain I got through priceline. You will have to pay for WIFI at $4.95/day though. - Adam More

I needed a room with a kitchenette in the Waltham area and the price for the suite in this Hotel was the best in the area. For sure, I’ve been in other hotels with better room arrangements and better kitchenettes but for $80+ you cant ask for more. The room was relatively clean with one King bed. I didn’t have... More

Stained carpets, creaky bed, torn tapestry, smelly rooms and maybe a dirty elevator will greet you at Homestead, Waltham. This is by far the worst experience in a hotel stay during any of my business trips. The hotel staff were courteous, though. More

My teen daughter and I stayed for 1 night from 9/25-9/26. We were in the area for college tours. We were placed in a handicapped accessible room so it was spacious. The room and bathroom were clean and it did not smell like smoke. The bed was actually comfortable. Be advised that although they offer Internet access it is not... More

Room smelled like smoke, room rundown, lucky I brought my own pillow as the room pillow smelled used and sweaty YUCK! came back after a long day room smelled as if someone was smoking in there the whole day. Front desk lady (she was very nice & apologetic) came... More

I spent two nights at the Homestead Suites in Waltham for business, and it was the worst work-related travel experience I have ever had. The furnishings were ancient and had cigarette burns in them (even though the room was non-smoking). The bedspread and towels appeared to be decades old, the shower curtain was moldy, and the bathroom floor was sticky... More
