“Comfortable stay”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 January 2012
2
people found this review helpful

We were in Boston for the first time & our stay at this location was very comfortable. We got a clean room with a very neat & new looking bathroom. We took a non-smoking room. Our stay was very nice. The breakfast was very basic but that is okay considering it is not a high price hotel. The only issue I have are the other lodgers - loud, noisy people hovering around.

The management was great we didn't have any trouble. Courteous & good staff. Overall a good stay at a good place.

“Don't stay.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 December 2011

For $70 a night, on the outskirts of Boston, I thought we'd get more for our money.

Pros---
-Well lit, ample parking.
-AAA Discount.
-easy drive to Boston

Cons---
-Rooms look dirty & smell like smoke
-Sheets smell dirty
-Sketchy looking people hanging around
-"free breakfast" consists of white toast & warm orange juice.
-halls smell of smoke.

In my experience you can find a nicer hotel for the money.

“I EXPECTED MORE!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 November 2011

i was highly disappointed in the room that we stayed in, the bathroom door was broken, the dresser was broken, the refridgerator smelled, and the worst part of it all, the second night we stayed there my fiance and i both got bitten by something, we both had bites on our arms and legs and face. i will never stay here again. i was so glad when we checked out, but very disappointed. i felt as though the money we paid , we could have gotten a better suitable comfortable room. i believe that my fiance also wrote a review and contacted corperate.
the room smelled heavily of cigarettes. i wish we could have had another room.

Room Tip: i do not recommend rooms from the outside, on the other side of hotel.

“For the rate, I expected a bit more, not what we thought it would be.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 October 2011

During our whole weekend stay, it smelled and reaked of cigarettes. We opened the windows to let the air circulate, but literally it smells as though you have five people smoking in the room all the time.
The guy who checked us in let us check in early because we were super early, so that was nice. So far I have not gotten any fresh towels, and I guess the continental breakfast will have to do. Overall I felt like I settled for less, I felt like I paid for much better room than this. But what can we do now

“run down hotel”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 October 2011

This hotel is not in a bad area but the rooms are very run down. Staff was ok and I guess if I were stuck I would stay there again but their would have to me no other option.
