Silvia, 1-night trip

Good food options nearby (particularly Chinese). Great price for the location although minimal amenities.
Garret, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

If you’re looking for a no-frills place to lay your head for a night, this place will do. If you’re allergic to dust, maybe not. This place is old and could desperately use some love, but the staff are friendly, the bed was OK, the shower had good pressure, but the carpets were pretty gross. Also, if you need absolute darkness, I would bring something to cover your eyes.

Lizzy, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

We had a great time, and this is in a good location. We took a short walk to Harvard and enjoyed that area. The room is very minimal, but nice people and clean bathrooms.
Phillip, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great value. Mattress was excellent. It’s a rooming house, not a motel.
Scott, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Very, very old building that has not been maintained and has the paint literally falling off the walls. Dirty shared bathroom.
Erin, 1-night trip

Carlos's Italian restaurant is close by and delicious! Staff was nice. He upgraded us to a room with 2 beds, which helped a lot.

An Inn near Boston

Very good location. Affordable.
4-night trip

6/10 Good

If you’re looking for a fancy hotel with all the bells and whistles, this isn’t it. But if that doesn’t bother you, it is convenient to pubic transportation, close to restaurants, and free parking. The staff was very attentive too.
Norman, 5-night trip

6/10 Good

Staff was great. It's better than sleeping outside and marginally better than sleeping in your car. Bring your own wash cloth! With all that, I'd stay there again.

Quiet
Marcia, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

This place is good at budget and there are choices of tastes from different countries such as Korea, Chinese, Turkey, Middle East. There is McDonald's within walking distance. I saw Jaguar and Land Rover dealer not far. Taxi is convenient in Boston Metro area.

2/10 Poor

Totally unsafe and noisy place, it’s run down property, Expedia should not list it on its site.
Ravi, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

It was okay for staying night..for sleeping..but i feeling uncomfortable,,door locked was note safe..to lived anything, no,curton
PARESH, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Very old and run down which didn't bother me until I tried to open the window shade only to have it completely fall off. What bothered me most however, was the lack of cleanliness. The whole place was absolutely filthy. From the ceilings to the floors was just dust, dirt & debris. And don't even get me started on the bed linens which were stained and had holes in them. Staff was friendly and helpful.
Lisa, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Admittedly, the amenities were pretty slim compared to Motel 6, but the price and location made up for it! We had an early flight out of Logan and managed to get there quickly. Would definitely go back!
