The location was handy and access to public transport was very convenient. There is a good choice of restaurants, in particular, I'd recommend the tiny corner Italian restaurant on the main street called 'Alfredo's'. His pasta is cooked to order and very well priced eg $13-20 for a generous bowl of delicious pasta. Alfredo's garlic bread is good and made with quality bread from Little Italy bakery. He also makes his own cannoli.

Cleanliness and functionality were poor and the premises and furnishings were very dated and worn. Examples: a. beds were old and saggy, carpet was filthy and stained, blinds were broken, no flywire on window. b. bathroom was dirty, cracked tiles, shower had no 'head' - plumbing needed as just a spout with water that sprayed in all directions, water temperature was cooler than luke warm and pressure was poor as the lever to cut water from the bath spout to the shower head didn't work. No toiletries provided.

nothing. it was a horrible experience and total waste of our money.

the bathroom was not clean, used soap shampoo in the shower, huge vomit in the sink. they had no one to come and clean the room. 2 hours later the desk attendant tried to clean the bathroom but the vomit was so dried up that it would not clean. we never used the sink and used the one in the little kitchenette in the room. it was gross. the mattress should not even be allowed to be used. creaky with broken springs. sleeping on a camping pad is more comfortable than this. we would not recommend this place. carpet hallway was gross and stained.

No breakfast provided. No tea or coffee facilities in room. Extremely basic, u clean accommodation.

Almost everything could be improved. Room very dirty. Bed bugs in mattress. Left arm had 5 painful bites.

THe Farrington Inn is exactly what a single person would want. It is very affordable, decently clean and to be honest, whocares about the rest of the people who live there? The rooms are secure and you are getting a perfect place for a very good price. Located in the dead middle of Boston, that place is great and I will definitely be coming back so many more times.

The paid parking is a bit uncomfortable because you pay but the parking spaces are limited so if you return late be ready that the lot will be full. But again, $10 per night is amazing considering anywhere in Boston you will pay at least $12 an hour.

Old and run down

Vantage

Affordable. The staff was relatively kind.

Bed extremely uncomfy. Common room left open/unlocked. Door to our room felt unsecure. Windows let in all sound.

room

separate washroom

Great location near lots of restaurants and public transportation.

Many of the rooms have brown wall-to-wall carpeting that looks terrible, dirty and old. It would be great if the owners removed the carpeting and just had the natural wood floors.
