“Great Location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed yesterday NEW

This motel is what you would expect from this level of motel. It is a bare bones motel without the gym, restaurant, etc. It was neat, clean and quiet. Within a mile, in back of the shopping center, on a main street there were several independent restaurants where parking was free. The motel is across the street from the train... More

“Disappointing”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 days ago NEW

This place was a dump. VERY friendly front desk person, Cherelle was very accommodating, but doesn't have much to work with. They advertise wi fi, but it didn't work in my room which was in the back of another building separate from the office where I assume the server was located. Room was clean but dreary and desperately in need... More

We stayed at this location 20 years ago when looking for an apartment. This time around, came with our 2 girls. We read previous reviews and they don't make justice for the hotel. Rooms have been renovated recently, hotel is right across the Red Line, the staff at front desk Stephanie and Cherelle are very helpful and for any particular... More

“A Convienient Location.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 weeks ago

I chose this motel as it was about half way between the two places I wanted to visit. The front desk clerk was very friendly and the room was clean but not fancy - though it did look like it had been renovated fairly recently. The motel is located right off the highway and is a 6 min. walk from... More

“Pleasantly surprised”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed June 18, 2016 via mobile

I thought it would be a dump. The rooms were super clean and it is an extremely short walk to the T station! Also not as loud as you'd think being next to the highway and the trains! However the decided to dremel tool the iron railings in the morning. Not my choice of an alarm clock.

3 of 5 stars Reviewed May 18, 2016

First, the Pros. The room was clean, which was probably the most important thing. Also the staff was very friendly and knowledgable of the area. And lastly, there was a metro station nearby to take us into downtown Boston, which was convenient. The cons, the room was very dated and stuffy, and the bathroom was so small they sink was... More

“Boston on the cheap! Save $$$$”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed May 5, 2016 via mobile

The motel has a great location directly across the street from the subway station. It's the last stop on the red line and it takes about 30 minutes to get to the heart of Boston. The motel is clean, safe, and extremely cheap compared to staying in the city. They also gave FREE parking, most places in Boston charge between... More
