I unexpectedly needed a room for one night in Framingham, and the EconoLodge was the cheapest priced place that didn't have awful reviews, so I went for it. It's not great, but I could have done far worse -- and so could you.
I was checked in by a personable 20-something young woman, who I think is the daughter of the proprietors. She expeditiously resolved a snag in my reservation, and I got to my room quickly.
Now the room itself is the bad news. On entering I noted a low-grade musty odor; low-grade enough that I decided I could live with it. Then, looking around, it was apparent that the furniture has seen better days. Two armchairs look beat up, the front of the nightstand drawer is hanging off one side. There is *no* coffee maker! And the wifi is slow. Still the bed was comfortable enough, and the linens were clean.
So all in all, this is no one's idea of a top-flight hostelry. Still, $60 ($67 with tax) for a room in a convenient location on the outskirts of Boston, this is not too bad if you're working on a budget.
