I should have known the minute I checked into this place, that it needs an overhaul. The desk clerk asked me for a credit card to charge my accidentals. Yep...I knew I had to watch out after that. And yes, the elevators. Two of four were out of order both days and the hotel was full of conference people so I had to plan an extra ten minutes for coming and going.
The room was spacious but obviously the renovations have not gotten to furniture. The veneer on the desk was all cracked and buckled, there was a cigarette burn in the easy chair. Ugh. And there was a big glob of something caked onto the bathroom door...heaven knows how long. At this point, Motel 6 would have been a better choice.
But the pool was great...divided into lanes for lap swimmers and free of kids at dinnertime. Plenty of hot water in the locker room showers and no funky smells. i did not use the exercise equipment but there was enough for an army.
I may come here again, for the pool, but only after they renovate. I will also call first to see if the elevators have finally been fixed.

I had the pleasure of a business trip to the Framingham area, so I picked the Sheraton figuring that the property would be pleasant. Never assume. This property is old, tired and in need of many repairs. Elevators are old and slow and in fact 1-2 were out of service, making busy morning exits to the parking lot a laborious process. Stairwells were dingy as well. Room was worn and fixtures in need of repair, including broken bath room faucet. Thankfully the bed was comfortable and clean. Positive was that the Sheraton did have a decent sized swimming pool that was big enough to swim laps. Interesting clientele, since on two nights I could smell marijuana smoke coming into my room.

Property needs a lot of repair and modernizing, including elevators. For the price, I cannot recommend.

This hotel has had very mixed reviews. After seeing the reviews I was very concerned with what I was going to get. I was pleasantly surprised.

Despite being a Priceline reservation, I felt I was treated as if I had a Sheraton priority membership. Check-in was fast and efficient. I requested a "quiet room" and was placed in a very attractive room with a king size bed. The room was very well lighted, clean, and quiet. The hotel looked like it was full but operations ran smoothly.

The infamous elevator problem still existed at the front bank of elevators but about 20 steps from there were elevators that the wait time was acceptable.

Fitness center was one of the best I've seen and was free.

The location makes it somewhat awkard to get to, particullarly if you're using a GPS. It's worth looking at a map to determine how to get to the entrance in advance.

All and all, I would definitely stay there again.

This was a beautiful, castle type hotel. The good stuff: beds were really comfortable, and I loved the comforters and pillows. Everything very clean and nicely stocked, including Starbucks coffee in the rooms. I had read reviews about bad elevators, but I didn't have any problems at all with them. Front desk staff - very nice and helpful. Not so good - parking lot filled up at night and was poorly lit as you got further away. No continental breakfast available, and the breakfast buffet was $19, for very average food. Biggest headache was getting in and out. Road is very busy, and is one way. Had to drive a long way and then u-turn, and you had to drive a few miles to good restaurants or coffee. I was there for business, and it was close to where I needed to go, but I thought it was a little expensive. Not a good spot if you are there to visit in Boston - traffic makes it a long trip to downtown.
