Comfort Inn

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 20 Jun 2011 rated 4 out of 10.

Thin walls.

Positives: Nearby restaurants were nice.

Negatives: I was double billed. Still not resolved.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 01 Nov 2010 rated 4 out of 10.

As a business traveler, it was convenient to my appointments. Parking was free and access to the city was fast and easy. The rooms were very tired looking. And, as a result of the price, the people staying at the hotel were not professionals.

Positives: Location to downtown Boston was convenient.

Negatives: The hotel decor and accommodations were tired looking and dingy.

The bed was soft and I loved the pillows. Breakfast was included and was decent for not having hot food (except for the waffles). The selection of fruit, cereal, yogurt and breads wasn't too bad either. I thought there would be a mini-frig in the room but there wasn't. The showerhead felt great, like the one I have at home.

Positives: There was coffee, tea, and hot chocolate available in the lounge.

Negatives: Having to waddle my pregnant self downstairs to get ice since the one on the our floor was broken.

The hotel appears to be a good deal, but as the old saying goes. It was generally dated looking and somewhat shabby. Even so, it would have been passable except for the trains. When we complained to the manager.

Positives: Bed and pillows were comfortable.

Negatives: Raiment ran right behind the hotel. The noise from the trains kept waking us up.

Reviewer: Not provided on Sun 18 Jul 2010 rated 2 out of 10.

Poor location, difficult to find and noisy. Dirty, worn, and just plain poor quality all the way around.

Positives: The woman at the front desk was pleasant.

Negatives: The toilet leaked all night.

This place badly needs renovation, which may already have begun, as breakfast room looked pretty new. For the rest, the walls needed fixing where they meet floor, especially in bathroom. No hair conditioner.

Positives: Breakfast, quality and quantity.

Negatives: Torn upholstery on 2 chairs in room. Overall dinginess.

The hotel was clean but a little run down here and there. The shower curtain rod was improperly installed, which made the shower feel cramped. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. The complimentary breakfast exceeded expectations. The hotel provided shuttles to and from the airport and the metro station.

<BR/>

Positives: Special services offered to runners who stayed there.

Negatives: Proximity to public transportation.

Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 18 Sep 2009 rated 6 out of 10.

The hotel is aging and showing its wear. The neighborhood it is in is also aging and showing its wear. The staff was mostly friendly with one exception. There is a shuttle every half hour to the local MTBA station, JFK/U Mass. There is an hourly shuttle to the airport.

Positives: Shuttle to airport was convenient.

Negatives: Two things, not close to downtown as promoted and next to railroad tracks.

not far from city, free tram. exercize room is nothing more than tredmils. pool is located in another hotel. 24 hr bowling an arcade. freeport tavern has wonderful food. small rooms. most hotel employees do not speak english, or hardly do. breakfast buffet doesn't have many options. good for business trips not good for family vacations if planning an extended stay. wouldn't recommend staying more than 3-4 days for a family. fair prices for what you get!

Positives: free shuttle to the subway was nice. not a far commute to downtown boston.

Negatives: most employees didn't speak english. no one really knew their way around the area!

The parking is very small. The breakfast is free in the morning, but it is full of guests all the time. There is not enough table and chair to sit for the breakfast. The bed is not too comfortable for the level of stars that it received. The staffs don't smile.

Positives: Free breakfast, great location.

Negatives: Limited parking. No swimming pool.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 13 Apr 2009 rated 2 out of 10.

Unfriendly employees who could care less about helping us with our stay, the worst overall hotel I have ever stayed in. It is way too far away from Boston.

Positives: Nothing , I have better service at the McDonalds drive up window.

Negatives: Everything - hotel is in a bad area, shuttel is way too far away from downtown boston.

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 16 Oct 2008 rated 4 out of 10.

This Comfort Inn is overpriced and is located at a very confusing intersection of a network of roads. The housekeeping staff forgot to fix our room during our stay, but kept opening the door and looking in during check-out day. I would recommend this hotel as a last resort. We were in town during the Columbus Day holiday weekend. This hotel is not close to central Boston, but there is a shuttle that will take you to the subway station in order to get downtown without using a car. Driving in Boston from this hotel was a nightmare for me.

Positives: Free breakfast.

Negatives: The confusing location; no maid service on 10/11/08.

Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 20 Aug 2008 rated 5 out of 10.

Staff was nice and helpful. Breakfast had a good variety of items. Room was clean enough. Wi-Fi signal in my room was absent. Shuttle schedule was not entirely convenient.

Positives: It was less expensive than any other hotels I found in Boston. It was clean and nice enough.

Negatives: Inconvenient location.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 18 Aug 2008 rated 9 out of 10.

A very nice place staying for business travel.

Positives: Shuttle services to Boston Convention Center and the airport.

Negatives: It would be even better if they provide free internet services.

One star at best, that's assuming that 1 star hotels aren't clean! Staff is very rude. They were upset because I asked to change room because my first room was dirty/smelly. Unfortunately, so was the second room. I ended up not staying at the hotel, but driving home instead.

Positives: Free parking.

Negatives: The whole hotel was dirty and smelled like pets.

Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 11 Apr 2008 rated 10 out of 10.

Very good staff everywhere, breakfast, maid, front desk, shuttle driver, polite, efficient, friendly. I will stay here again.

Positives: Available printer and computer, good breakfast, good bed.

Negatives: Wish there were more menus for healthy take-out food in the room.

Reviewer: Not provided on Sun 28 Oct 2007 rated 6 out of 10.

It's ok. Nothing special nothing bad. It was clean. No amenities on site to speak of (just free breakfast) the description is misleading as any food or recreation is a walk to another site. If you do not have a car it is only accessible from the shuttle that only runs every half hour from the t station I couldn't find a cab there.

Positives: The staff was accommodating.

Negatives: Location your map is deceiving no easily accessible transportation except shuttle.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 06 Aug 2007 rated 5 out of 10.

Friendly staff, too far out of Boston, but the free shuttle service to the T-stop was great.

Positives: The shuttle service to the T stop.

Negatives: The location.

Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 25 Jul 2007 rated 1 out of 10.

I would not recommend this place to others.

Positives: The young man who works the desk in the morning was very helpful - he was the only one.

Negatives: Horrible front desk staff - very rude and obviously don't like their jobs. The cleaning people are very eager to get rid of you.

Service lovely, location a challenge for downtown visitors, facility is aging.

Positives: Friendly staff.

Negatives: Location, aging facility.

We were put in a smoking floor in a room with 2 double beds. We are highly allergic to smoke. And this was our anniversary getaway. Not to mention our room was right next to the noisy section.

Positives: Somewhat clean.

Negatives: Smoking, 2 full beds, noisy.

Reviewer: Not provided on Sun 01 Oct 2006 rated 2 out of 10.

Icky scary nasty dirty.

Positives: Good bed.

Negatives: N/A

Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 25 Aug 2006 rated 2 out of 10.

This was overpriced, and dirty. Walk-ins paid $50 less than we did at the same time. This was not convenient to downtown Boston. It was 6 miles out, certainly not walking distance. It was on the railroad tracks. The staff was rude and not helpful at all.

Positives: Breakfast.

Negatives: Dirty, the location was not near downtown Boston, staff rude.

Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 30 Jun 2006 rated 2 out of 10.

It states a pool, it is in the Ramada Inn approx. 4 blocks away on a highway. The front desk staff were pleasant, shuttle service great. The hotel room bad, and I would NOT stay there again. It was way overpriced.

Positives: Cont. Breakfast, shuttle driver was great.

Negatives: Dated, carpet torn & in bad shape. Smelled stale!

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 24 Apr 2006 rated 9 out of 10.

A nice hotel which had free parking and a free shuttle to the T. Not having to pay or look for parking in Boston was a huge bonus! VERY limited eating in immediate area of hotel. Continental breakfast was a nice plus.

Positives: Free parking, free shuttle to T, free breakfast.

Negatives: Not a lot of dinner choices in area.

Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 09 Dec 2005 rated 8 out of 10.

I didn't play the game right and had to pay.

Positives: Convenient location with parking and reasonable price.

Negatives: No problems.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 14 Nov 2005 rated 5 out of 10.

It was a good deal for the going rate in the Boston Area. however if everything was equal this Hotel would not compete based on the lack attitudes of staff.

Positives: Location.

Negatives: Staff seemed distant.They seemed like they were there to collect a paycheck not to nuture business.
