I stayed here for few days. The studio suites are well-furnished and have an equipped kitchen. There are appliances and utensils enough for two people. The location is great. There is a supermarket not even half a mile away from the suites. Room service is excellent.

We have a BIG family and often need extra rooms when we get together. I always rely on Homestead Studio Suites in Marborough, never been disappointed. I like the small kitchen, just enough for coffee in the morning and heating left-overs for midnight snacks. Service is excellent -- front desk and maid service.
Internet access is worth the few extra dollars.

My wife and I were staying to celebrate Valantine's Day. We were coming back from breakfast when we learned that our son had had a serious hand injury at work. We decided we needed to leave one car in the hotel parking lot and drive into the hospital to see our son. We asked the man at the desk (Charles) if we could leave the car. He assured us that that was o.k. He then offered to go on the Internet to get the directions we needed to find the hospital. "We only had the name of the hospital, we did not have the address. Charles tracked down the address and provided us with the directions.

My wife and I were very scared. It was wonderful to have somone who was willing to go beyond the call of duty to help us. We are very grateful.

The Homestead Studio Suites is certainly nothing terribly exciting. It's a little old and worn inside, surrounded by chain restaurants, right on a busy highway. But it's very easy to get to, and upon entering, we were greeted by an incredibly friendly and helpful woman at the check-in desk. Later on, she gave us a free toothbrush and toothpaste when my mother told her she'd forgotten hers. Sadly, the other staff members we encountered later on weren't quite as amazing.

The room was also quite short of amazing. Yes, it was nice to have a little kitchen of our own, but it was quite poorly stocked. We were unable even to find cups, so we called the front desk asking for them. Eventually a woman came up and gave us a measly two plastic cups! The rest of the furnishings were perfectly clean and fairly comfortable, but you could tell that some of the fixtures were a little old, and there was a slight musty smell to the room. The bathroom was huge, but disappointing. The bathtub had some rust and cracks around the faucet and edges. When I first turned the water on, it was dark brown until I let it run for about 5 minutes.

There's wireless Internet throughout the hotel for $4.95. I didn't have and problems using it, although I was surprised that I had to pay for it at all, since most hotels around here offer it for free. There aren't really any other amenities to speak of. Not even an ice machine! Though there were ice cube trays in our room's refridgerator.

The hotel has a very convenient location on Rte. 20 just off of Rte. 495. There are all kinds of stores and restaurants nearby, so you certainly won't run out of places to eat. The hotel is slightly hidden by a bank if you're coming from the east -- we passed right by it and had to circle around.

I don't think I would stay here again, but if you want your own kitchen without having to pay much for it, this isn't a bad option.
