8/10 Very good

Only stayed one night for a concert, but the place has its charm. Local businesses around are thriving and plenty to do nearby. Shared bathroom might seem off putting to some but it was a great experience. If near the Boston area again, would definitely stay!
Thomas, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Friendly staff. Quiet enough for a good night sleep. Convenient location for our needs. Older building that could use some love but the bed was nice and sheets and bathroom were clean. Decent affordable option.

It was amazing
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.

An Inn near Boston

Very good location. Affordable.
4-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.
Kathleen, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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

10/10 Exceptional

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.
Rebecca, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The room was dirty and minimally cleaned. There were spider webs and stains on the walls, there was just a sheet and 2 pillows on a very noisy mattress, and it had an old musty stench. The bathroom was horrific and I don’t even want to use it… the person who checked me in was very nice!
Sean, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Somewhat clean no frills room
Gregory, 1-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.
Monte, 3-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

10/10 Exceptional

Quiet
Marcia, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

The entire property could get some love and care. The bed sheets had stains and some crumbles, and there were also crumbles in the desk and the floor. Not all the bathrooms had soap to wash available. It was a stressful experience to stay even for 3 nights.
Christos, 3-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.
