The worst place I’ve ever stayed in. Old, dirty, they don’t care about this place. They might as well just shut it down. Do not EVER stay here. A motel 6 looks like a 4 seasons compared to this place. Felt absolutely disgusted.

ANDREW, READING

This place was a very basic “hotel” at an extortionate rate, probably because my stay coincided with the Boston marathon. There was a shared kitchenette with appliances which looks like they dated from the 1950s and a large TV that didn’t work (no signal cable); the shared bathroom had a shower that just about worked but, again, looked like it was 50 years old and had an unreliable temperature. The room itself was quite large in floor area but tucked under the eaves so had little space to stand up in. I’m not sure the lock on the door would have withstood a firm attempt to open it. Sheets and a blanket barely fit the bed and the window blind didn’t block out much light. If someone used the washing machine in the kitchen at night, the sound of the water pipes supplying it were very noticeable in my room. The rooms may have been clean but the decor was so tired that it was difficult to tell. The local area is “colourful” but that did mean there was plenty of choice of restaurants (mostly Korean) in the area. The plus point is that it was only about 10 minutes walk to the Harvard Avenue Green Line station so I could get into the city quite quickly even though it was a few miles outside the centre.
