Clean and quiet. Only issues, bulbs were out in the bathroom so the one bulb that was working was dim. No shampoo. The bathroom door wouldn't shut, it had to be slammed to make it shut. The door to the room didn't latch unless you made sure you pulled it closed behind you a security issue if you didn't make sure it was locked before you left.

Can't say much more than: it was fine. Nothing special, especially for the price. The room was clean, but the dresser drawer handle was broken. Not a big deal. Would I stay there again, sure, if I had to. Again, it was just fine.

It"s an older hotel with stairs, so bear that in mind if you have mobility issue or a lot of heavy things to bring to the room. But for the price & location, it was fine for my needs. My room was recently renovated. Very nice. Clean & comfortable bed. I stayed on a Saturday night and it was quiet. I didn't hear anything at all. Parking was easy with a indoor garage attached to the hotel. I plan to stay there again.

I didn't like how they didn't clean the bathroom after the previous guests. The TV was sticky, the toilet had urine on the seat. It was very loud. The last 2 nights were horrible. Never again.

Price was very good. If you need to stay in the immediate west burbs of Boston (Newton, Watertown, Belmont), this is centrally located. Bed was comfy. Only criticism was that the shades are a little short so it was rough trying to sleep in.
