Room was clean and fine for a lower priced option. However the mattress was way past replacement time, it was sagged in the middle and too soft.

Everyone was very nice and tried to be helpful. The room wasn’t the cleanest, and lots of things were slightly broken (e.g. towel rack not fully attached to the wall, shower curtain nor super functional). The main reason for my low rating is that the toilet in my room was broken. After 2 nights they still couldn’t fix it and for my third and last night, moved me to a room in the renovated part of the hotel, which was nicer (though still 4, not 5 stars, even for what it was). At least the toilet worked. Great location, though. I used SpotHero to rent a very cheap parking spot nearby and avoid the high fees to park at the hotel.

Liked: Cleanliness
1. This is a motel, not a hotel. 2. Spacious clean rooms. 3. Breakfast buffet is more extensive than most such places, but it is all still that kind of American motel breakfast. Nothing really good. 4. The check-out time is a stingy 11AM, rather than the standard 12 noon, and the have a printed policy saying they will charge $50 for late check-out. 5. Location is close to a T green line station, but T green line currently interrupted by construction, requiring use of shuttle buses to get to/from downtown Boston.

The staff was NOT very friendly or helpful. Reluctant to help, and every time we asked for something, they made it seem like a big problem, even though that's their job. Check-in was fine; there was a $25 parking fee/night. Breakfast was kind of a joke, just bagels, cereal, fruit, stuff that doesnt need a kitchen. Overall, our room was fine, there were no pots and pans or dishes, despite having a small kitchen with hot plate... not sure how they expected us to use it. There was a wine glass in our cupboard, but there was still lipstick on it; not sure if someone had just left it up there, as there was only one and no other dishes whatsoever, so its possible that housekeeping doesnt even check there? Water pressure was horrendous; I would have rather showered at the gym, it was like standing in the rain... like a tiny stream. AND it didnt drain well, it all just felt a little dirty, but for the price it was worth it.
