Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel is conveniently located, close to MIT and a short drive to downtown. The rooms have a spacious layout but are in need of a refresh, with a noticeable smell of stale cigarettes. The service from the staff is fantastic, offering helpful and friendly assistance. The hotel's dining options are varied, except for the disappointing breakfast. The location is perfect for those visiting MIT and provides easy access to shops and restaurants.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The room was spacious and comfortably fit our family, but the only downside was that it felt a bit cramped with limited tables and chairs. The service was extremely nice, and the staff was very friendly and helpful, although I did find it a bit strange to be invited to eat leftovers in the breakfast area. The hotel's location was perfect, just next to MIT and a short drive to downtown, offering a quiet atmosphere. The dining options were good, with a variety of choices for different tastes. Overall, a great experience with a few minor drawbacks.
Our stay at the hotel was wonderful! The rooms were spacious and comfortable, perfect for our family. It would have been nice to have a different breakfast selection, but overall, it was a nice experience. The staff was extraordinarily helpful and kind, making our stay even more enjoyable. The location was convenient for our trip, and the purpose of visiting MIT was easily achieved. The dining experience was good, although a few extra items for breakfast would have been nice.
The hotel is incredibly family-friendly with spacious rooms featuring fully furnished kitchenettes, making it a great choice for families. The service was attentive and professional, with helpful staff. The location is ideal for exploring both Boston downtown and Cambridge universities due to its proximity to the T metro station. The dining options were good quality but could have a wider selection, and the hotel facilities were convenient.
