I travel frequently for work and usually spend several nights a week in hotels. That said, this was by far the worst hotel I have ever stayed at.
My usual Boston hotels were full, so I selected this place despite my better judgment and despite the outrageous (for a HOJO) $250 nightly rate.
The room was dirty, the sheets and towels stained, the bathroom had used soap and shampoo left over from the previous guests, and hair on the floor.
Heater makes noise like a freight train. Not that you can sleep...the place is out of control. Walls are paper thin and it seems to be a hot afterparty spot for the Landsdowne Street bar scene.
And the most incredible thing is that nobody seems to care, especially not the gruff monkeys they staff at reception.
Overall, a miserable, worn, unsafe place. I will never stay there or at another Howard Johnson again.
