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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

Cute Inn! The outside is really pretty, but the inside needs some work. There were stains on the walls and carpets. The bathroom had strands of hair all over the floor and in the drain, with more stains on the tub. The service was great. Lewis was super kind and friendly!

Admittedly, the amenities were pretty slim compared to Motel 6, but the price and location made up for it! We had an early flight out of Logan and managed to get there quickly. Would definitely go back!

You get what you pay for. Acceptable stay, very small room, dimly lit, noisy a/c and shared bathroom. Fine for a place to just sleep overnight. Only limited street parking for free.

Check in was easy, the staff was friendly and professional. The rest needs improvement! Room carpet was stained. The room smelled of smoke. The towel was stained. Some electrical outlets didn’t work. I waited 20 minutes for the shared bathroom. 6 or more rooms to one bathroom. Paint was peeling, tiles were cracked. For the price, I would expect better, considering that I had to share a bathroom.
