Reviews and Ratings
I found the hotel in a very convenient location, right off the Mass pike and close to various restaurants and stores. The rooms were decent but needed better maintenance. The service stood out as particularly thoughtful and kind, making my stay more enjoyable.
The hotel offered okay rooms with older equipment like fridge, microwave, iron, and ironing board. I was upgraded to a king room at no extra cost, which was a nice surprise. However, there were some cobwebs in the room. The service was good overall, except for one staff member who needs more training. The location, though close to restaurants and stores, needs improvement as it seemed rundown and unsafe. The dining could have been better with more options. On the bright side, the hotel was close to numerous restaurants and stores.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but they felt a bit dated and in need of a makeover. The service was very pleasant and attentive, which was a highlight. The location was convenient, close to restaurants and retail stores, but the road layout made it a bit tricky to reach. The dining options were mediocre, and the facilities were decent but nothing exceptional.
