It's rather cheap and provides good value for the money. Air conditioner in the room was noisy, but otherwise the room was OK and clean. More

I was lucky to stay on a quiet time even on the eve of the Boston Marathon. The rooms are average, seemed to be mostly clean but the age is really stating to show.... More

I've stayed here quite a few times over the last few years when I'm in town visiting family. The last time I stayed there, the toilet had major problems which I noticed when I first entered the room. I called down to the desk and someone came up and gave me a plunger. Great. The shower had not been cleaned,... More

My partner and I spent four nights in this hotel as part of a tour of Boston and New England. The reviews that we had read prior to the trip had worried us and even the hotel's website wasn't particularly reassuring but as soon as we stepped into the hotel we were relieved. Admittedly this hotel is a little tired... More

We also went as part of a tour and several of our party had problems with their rooms. Our room, altho on the fourth floor, was above the kitchen ventilation system and there was a constant drone from it, luckily as it was constant we got used to it. The room was clean and tidy, beds comfortable and were well... More
