There's a reason this is cheap for Boston. It's a low class hotel. Musty smelling room with carpeting with ridges in it (not smooth carpet). I wore socks so my bare feet didn't have to touch the floor. No AC on a fall weekend where the temp broke heat records. Why? Management turned off AC and the kid on duty didn't know how, or didn't want, to turn it on. He advised me to leave my window open. Right--single woman in ground-floor room overlooking abandoned nightclub. Sounds safe. The hotel parking lot had many many Quebec plates and lots of foreigners--nothing wrong with that, but I suspect this is listed in some bargain book. It's a decent location, close to the T. I'd say go further out of town to find a bargain hotel if you have a car. I heard them send people to eat the bowling alley next door. A shame to eat there unless you have no car and are stuck. Buyer beware. This is a run-down joint that has no effort, care or concern associated with it. I have to say this--every guest (that could speak English) that I ran into was nice and helpful and it felt like a safe experience. No, I didn't leave my window open when I wasn't awake.
Room Tip: The ground floor windows have flimsy locks. One side overlooks a bowling alley, the other side over...
