Bad management - posted on 02/15/2007
This place is filthy. Management is hateful. They refused to give us a refund when we saw how dirty it was!
AWFUL! - posted on 10/26/2006
This hotel was poorly maintained (frayed carpet, peeling wallpaper) and the common areas were FILTHY. I did not get maid service one of the days I was there.
Nightmare on Dorchester St. - posted on 10/04/2006
This place was terrible. We walked in and walked right back out. This place is a nightmare. The doors did not lock corectly. I was not going to let my girls stay in this place, we took showers as soon as we found another place to stay.

Slept on top of the sheets, and waited to get home to shower. Howard is rolling over in his grave.
Avoid this hotel at all costs - posted on 07/20/2006
This hotel is located in a very bad part of town. Has a lounge that makes noise till wee hours of morning. they don't air-condition the hallways/commonspaces. old, old, old. I am pretty sure hookers work here.

Do not stay at this hotel! Very rundown and dirty. Not a great part of town. Questioned the cleninest of sheets. We didn't even stay overnight. Checked out and went to find a different hotel.
RUN do not walk! - posted on 05/03/2006
I would not allow my 6 year old daughter to remove her shoes or touch anything. The windows were covered in grease & filth even having a body print on them from what looked like oil. The bathroom spit in the sink & there was hair in the shower & stuck to the bathroom walls. The walls in the room were discolored from leaks & the paper peeling in large strips. The hotel had a smell that was horrible, & to say we felt unsafe is a huge understatement! We ran from the hotel along with several other guest who left for the same reasons! They should be stripped of their franchise!
Disgusting - posted on 05/02/2006
Sorry, but this hotel should be removed from your list of hotels until it is completely redone. Very, very bad. Dirty and disgusting.
crummy place - posted on 12/04/2005
this hotel is in a bad ,rundown area. The staff was rude and unhelpfull.The bathroom in the room was less than clean. There was mold on the walls of the shower and a dirty commode.When we booked the room they said they had free breakfast, but when we arrived they said we had to buy breakfast at their rest.. BUT the place was always closed! They have a club open on the weekend and the place fills up with very noisey people till about 5AM. Please do NOT stay at this hotel if you want a good nite sleep. We feared for our lives and got very little sleep.
Better off in a motel - posted on 11/09/2005
The area seemed unsafe. The staff at the front desk was rude to other customers and to me. I called the front desk because there was no soap or shampoo and the front desk hung up the phone on me. It was not very clean either.
My experience... - posted on 08/07/2005
the stink of the building stayed in our nose for hours. bad ! bad ! bad ! run form this hotel do not walk you might get shot. The halls smelled
better than the last one - posted on 04/12/2005
the room we had was clean and nicer/bigger than the last hotel (we had to leave cause it was so dirty) the eve f/d clerk was rude to my husband every time he came in the ofc. the nightclub people took up all the parking spots? why should the gsts have to search for a space? we were only there 1 night but we had our kids with us and it's not a good hotel for kids, but better than the last one. now i have some kind of bites/bumps on my head after staying here? next time we will go somewhere else.
Simply Awful - posted on 03/23/2005
We made an online reservation for this MOTEL. The location is in a very bad area of town. We went inside to check in and there were seedy looking people all over the lobby. The elevator stunk. Went into the room and I would not allow my children to touch anything. The room was filthy and had a horrible smell. We immediately left. The staff would not refund our money, but we would not have stayed there anyway.
