Motel 6 Framingham, MA - Boston West
Giving the price, is hard to complain about this hotel. It is ok if you’re planning on being out all day and just get to the hotel at night. Close enough to Boston; we stayed during Marathon weekend when every hotel in Boston is over $300 a night and Motel 6 was $100

Sonesta Select Boston Milford
Staff was extremely rude, room was dirty, they gave us 2 towels for a family of 4. Repeatedly asked for more towels or fresh towels and for the room to be cleaned. I wouldn't recommend staying there.
