  • The staff was very friendly and professional, the room was clean.
  • No public transportation and no restaurant nearby.

“The staff was friendly and professional. No restaurant on site, the elevator was out of service and was very slow. Good for business traveler but poor for leisure senior traveler.”

  • The diligence of the staff to meet my needs, shuttle service and friendliness.

“Located on the beautiful Charles River with two well kept secrets. A shuttle service and grocery stores/coffee shop within a 3 minute walk! Did i mention the staff that went out of their way to make sure my family and I were taken care of? Yes I'd recommend this hotel to others!”

  • Facility was clean and staff was friendly and helpful.

“We found all areas of the hotel very clean. The room was pleasant, bed comfortable, flat screen TV, and many amenities were provided, including a coffee maker, small refrigerator, iron and ironing board and many toiletries, soap, shampoo and conditioner. The temperature of the pool made it very inviting and we enjoyed swimming there and then sitting out on the sun deck. There were laundry facilities and an exercise room, but we did not make use of them.”

  • Good location.
  • Parking was expensive, price for parking was a surprise, would not accommodate bed needs.

“Average experience, couldn't accommodate per arrangements made in advance via telephone. Parking at $24 per night was a significant increase.”

  • Clean & comfortable. I loved the shuttle service.
  • One unfriendly receptionist.

“I was pleasantly surprised with this Marriott in that it was a much more pleasant experience than usual. The staff (with the exception of one lady) was exceptional. It was clean and quite comfortable. I enjoyed having the refrigerator in the room for soda & snacks for my grandchildren. The free shuttle service to the T and all of the squares eg Harvard, Central and Kendell provided us the opportunity to get around without an expensive car rental and parking fees. Buffet breakfast provided a wide variety of hot & cold breakfast items every morning. The pool was kept clean and well-stocked with towels. I would suggest that soap and shampoo be provided in the shower area however! The short (1/4 block) walk to Trader Joes behind this hotel was convenient to purchase any type of organic food/drinks we wanted!”

  • Very comfortable bed, fitness center was good and great location for Cambridge.
  • Slow elevators.

“Pleasantly surprised - exterior is a bit drab but rooms are very nicely appointed and bed was super comfortable. Staff was very friendly and housekeeping very helpful. Rooms have coffee maker, fridge, hairdryer, iron, flat screen TV, quiet AC/heat system, some have fantastic views of Cambridge or Charles River. There is also a shuttle bus that will take you into Harvard or Central square.”

  • The location was convenient to where
    I was doing business.
  • I had to pay 24 dollars a day for parking.

“I was not happy with my stay due to the fact they were located next to a shopping center. There was a semi truck unloading every night next to my room very late at night. Making a terrible racket.”

  • Big windows - clean, and nice décor.
  • Not as close to Harvard or Central Square as I would have liked.

“Clean, comfortable, nicely decorated, and very nice staff.”

  • Very clean, modern, many amenities.
  • Steep parking.

“Modern, clean, very comfortable hotel. Bed was VERY comfy, nice view, new LCD TV. Bathroom was the only area which hinted at the age of the building (exposed pipes). Definitely recommended for a quick overnight stay for business or leisure.”

  • Nice rooms, free internet.
  • Distance to public transportation.

“Not disappointed by quality to be expected from Marriott. Well appointed rooms, free internet, great views, decent work-out facility, friendly staff. Overall useful location.”

  • The location was very convenient.
  • When we called from a nearby location for a shuttle to pick us up, the person answering the phone did not know what to do, and we ended up walking.

“Overall it was a good experience. The parking in Boston was a surprise though, it was $24 per day which I didn't expect. And the shuttle service was useless to us because when we called, the girl who answered didn't know what to do, and didn't recognize where we were when we described it. We walked about 2 miles in the cold to get back to the hotel.”

  • Nice staff, great view.
  • $25 per day for parking in their own lot!

“Nice hotel, old facade, but re-done inside. Not close to restaurants, or any action, but they do offer a shuttle bus to go into Cambridge or to the view of the river. Did not like to pay $25 a day to park in their own lot, which is not even crowded.

  • Clean and nice rooms.
  • Had to move rooms three times. One smelled, one didn't have any heat. Quite a bother.

“Except for have to change rooms three times, it was a good place to stay for cleanliness. But it was not close to any of the public transportation. On Sundays they stop there shuttle at 6 pm which left us stranded because we wanted to stay in downtown Boston past 6 pm.”

  • Very helpful staff went out of their way to assist.
  • Pool area looked a little dated.

“Great hotel with excellent staff. A short walk from the subway into Boston centre, although hotel offers a free shuttle to local stations.”

  • Beautiful rooms, very clean. It was nice to stay in a newly renovated hotel. Beautiful!
  • The location - too far from the T station. Parking very expensive and the lot was mostly empty.

“This hotel met all of my expectations for the quality of the rooms and service. The location is problematic, however, with a 20 minute walk to the nearest T station. Because parking and driving can be so challenging in Boston, it made using the subway system more challenging. For future travellers, after dark I recommend getting off at the Harvard station (one stop further down the line) and taking one of the numerous cabs from that area back to the hotel.”

  • Right
    near the river and close to friend's house.
  • A tad pricy.

“Great location if you are visiting people in Harvard and/or MIT.”

  • Free shuttle to local attractions (within 10 minutes).
  • Restaurants too expensive for the quality of the food and presentation.

“Relatively distant from public transportation and local attractions although did provide a local shuttle. No shuttle to or from airport which is a drawback. Rooms were clean and beds comfortable. Rooms were quiet. Daily newspapers. No view from my room but is possible that some rooms had a river view towards Boston. No smoking rooms and floors.”
