Staff are great. Room had some minor issues: bathroom sink cold water faucet leaked, tv reception for NCAA games was spotty, door had a sharp plate with edges sticking out that could cut your hand were issues we reported. Maid service was every other day & excellent. Breakfast service was excellent. Staff are responsive. Comfortable stay.

The hotel room smelled so strongly of a cleaning solution or air freshener - or some artificial scent that it gave us headaches. I was craving fresh air when I stepped out in the morning. Can’t stay there again. You could taste it, it was so strong.
The biscuits and gravy offered during breakfast made my colleague ill. She threw up at the airport after leaving the hotel.

Quiet. Nice view. Spacious for two. Decent price. Friendly front desk.
Did not like broken elevator call buttons;
Did not like that the down call button didn’t work and I had to press the up button
Did not like the browned hand towel left by the sink all nicely folded for guests
Did not like the room telephone without any call buttons.

We were awoken at 8:15 by construction being done in the room above us which stunk because we had gotten back to the room after midnight after attending a party we were looking fwd to sleeping in the late checkout. The mgr told us that he couldnt give us a refund because we werent rewards members we were not pleased with that.
2.0
The rooms are spacious with a large desk and so are good for working. Downsides included - noisy neighbours (I could clearly hear what they were watching on tv at 1am), the aircon is loud, old, and seems very blowy and unhealthy. I forgive much of this because I think that hte rates are relatively good. The Menotomy bar which is adjacent is excellent.

Great hotel, except advertised as having a bath, which would not fill up no matter what (Room 142). Also they gave me the room by the dumpster. I will try and leave a google review soon, thanks.

The elevator was broken for the second time we've visited, I know things break but over a holiday weekend it was tough. Maybe they should just replace them, otherwise was great.
1.0
Its was unkept...I had to change rooms due to animal odor, the 2nd room had caked dust on the fireplace, and other furniture candy wrapers behind the couch and stains on the bathroom walls, they didnt even bother to turn the alarm clocks back a week past daulight savings

How can we be charged for this much for a hotel room with NO HOT WATER!!!
5.0
The hotel is conveniently located near a restaurant and pharmacy in a safe, walkable, and bikeable neighborhood. The staff were super pleasant, and the hotel room was great with a full-size kitchen. Another nice feature was the complimentary breakfast. My sole comment is that the carpet in the room could use a little updating but that is my sole comment.

I think this Homewood Suites is fine. Kind and courteous staff, I enjoyed my stay in Oct 2023. The room is spacious and essentially overall the experience was what I expected. They have parking, free breakfast and the location is great especially if going to Cambridge and or Boston. I prefer to have the room turned over dally (I know some hotels are going in this direction) but it was explained up front and is available if you request it with 24-hour notice. For what we needed the hotel was fine and would stay again

We flew in for an event, unfamiliar with the area . Staff gave us superb directions on how to get there using the subway and busses, which exact ramp to take, which exact bus number. This was so appreciated, considering how big Boston is. They gave us confidence to navigate. Thank you!

For my room at least, there were a lot of things I didn't like about it. Things weren't clean, there were stains on the walls, the sheet had stains, there were weird banging sounds above me, like muffled clanging/machinery.
The shower had a dip inside it that prevented water from fully draining properly, so whenever I went to shower there was just leftover water from my last shower.
The shampoo bottle was miniscule.
The rug didnt seem very clean and I had to avoid looking at certain areas because there was just crumbs or something there that wasn't cleaned up before I stayed.
Some surfaces were sticky, not sure if it was adhesive or sugar but it was uncomfortable to accidentally touch it.
The kitchen space was great though, nice and tidy.
The bed was comfortable as well but I would have liked it more if the sheet didnt have weird stains. In retrospect I could have asked for a different sheet.
1.0
I will never book at this hotel again. Ever. I had difficulties with this reservation and both hotels.com and the hotel front desk lied to me. Repeatedly. I do consulting work monthly with a local entity but I will never make a reservation here again. Beware.
5.0
Convenient property. Very comfortable hotel with the usual Homewood suites amenities and friendly staff. Buffet breakfast is ok good variety and quality. Quiet. Good night rest. Need a car i would say not so close to the T. Easy and safe parking. Pet friendly for sure!
1.0
Place is seriously run down. More so, very strange people here. I am under the impression there are some homeless people housed here. Maybe not, but definitely got the creeps from some guests. Many others were families moving into Tufts. That helped balance things out a bit.
1.0
As I write this, the hotel is preparing for large scale renovations to start next year.
Admittedly, a family of five is difficult to house in the room sizes this hotel has.
The major issue was the bathroom. We were given a room with accessible shower (which we didn’t need but was probably all they had available despite reserving the hotel several weeks in advance).
The shower water would flood the bathroom which made it slippery and dangerous for my kids especially. We had to borrow a dirty mop to clean up the water regularly as house keeping only came on Monday Wednesday and Friday.
Housekeeping only made or changed bedsheets and one day didn’t even bother cleaning out the trash.
The air conditioning worked but made room very uncomfortable. We were either sniffling, coughing or one time one kid even threw up! We turned off the A/C and then we were fine so that was a solution we discovered too late ourselves.
The kitchenette was well stocked but no dish soap or cleaning sponge was provided on the first day.
Underground parking was very convenient. The hotel location is great as you can catch a bus into Harvard Square. Uber drives can get to you easily. There is a CVS across from the hotel which you can get stuff from if you need. And, the breakfast in the morning was just fine as well. Also the gym was decent with good machines to use and weights for lifting.
Overall, it was disappointing for the amount of money we spent for the five nights.
3.0
The staff at this hotel was absolutely wonderful! They went out of their way to be friendly, kind, and accommodating. The premises are well overdue for an upgrade; in fact, YEARS overdue. Carpets are fraying, dishes are stained, utensils are bent or missing, towels are frayed, etc. Two of the four laundry machines were out of order.
2.0
Property needs a renovation. Carpets in hallway and inside room looks dirty and rundown.
2.0
The staff are friendly and professional, but the condition of the room was not up to the Hilton standard. The carpet and sofa had obvious stains, the bathroom had slow draining sink, and the bed frame had a metal piece sticking out, maybe a renovation is needed.
4.0
Our kid is a student at Harvard and we've stayed here a couple of times. The front desk is not staffed all the time and both times we've stayed here we've had to wait for someone to check us in, but not long. Pros: staff is personable and courteous. Property is nice - grounds are well maintained, free covered/outdoor parking, complimentary breakfast with hold/cold options, spacious rooms/bathrooms with mini kitchens; AC (for hot Cambridge summers). It's safe, well priced and very well situated within the greater Cambridge area and in proximity to nearby colleges. Complimentary wi-fi. Cons; garage is a tight squeeze and could use better ventilation/a deep clean; like other hotels, the rugs in the rooms are of questionable cleanliness, the bed covering (top layer) was a little stained, pillow cases didn't match, pillows seemed old/little stained. Shower could use a little freshening. First couple of nights the TV signal wasn't stable.
