We had the most comfortable stay! The room was clean, the staff was friendly and responsive, and we were close to public transportation and plenty of convenience stores and restaurants. Temperature was perfect- we hope to stay there again if we travel to Boston!

For the price point and location of this inn I would say it is worth it. You can hear a lot of sounds through the walls and locks could be updated for safety. Overall, this is a decent option for travelers on a budget.

This was the worst hotel experience I have ever had. The room was dirty everywhere. There was not even soap in the toilet. The sheets were dirty and torn, and the blanket had multiple cigarette holes. I expected a clean and comfortable room for the price paid. This fell far short of basic standards.

The inn was a bit run down, but we felt safe and were pleased with the affordability. The beds were comfortable and the area was quiet.
(The beds were made when we arrived.) The carpet was pretty gross. Grafitu on the wall art. Other than these things, the room was safe, comfortable, and quiet.

I was going to walk to the New Balance Track, and asked the front desk man for directions. Rather than give me directions, he walked with me the mile to the track and pointed out good Korean restaurants and breakfast places along the walk. He was superbly kind and helpful (as I’m not great with directions).
