The room had no heating when it is the middle of winter. The thermostat clearly didn’t work and has not worked and they still willingly put me in such a room. The plastic on button was completely mashed in physically as well as the up arrow, as well as being completely dead.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
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.

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.

We appreciated the spacious rooms, the friendly and responsive staff, and how clean the rooms and linens were. We had the King Suite, and it fit us and our kids well. The rooms had windows an it was a comfortable space. One thing to know is that it is an older building and the hot water takes longer than you anticipate to get to the room. Be patient, it will come. We like that it is an independent establishment and the staff seem to communicate well with each other, and were definitely responsive when we had questions. For the price, we think this a very pleasant and welcoming place to stay.
