I WOULD GIVE THIS HOTEL 4.5 STARS IF IT WASN'T FOR THE BREAKFAST WHICH LETS IT DOWN.
We stayed here for 3 nights, mostly due to price as it was less expensive in Quincy than downtown Boston. Conveniently, there's a subway station within walking distance which we used to get downtown. We used a ride-share to and from the airport (around $50, 2026).
SMALL SUITE
The suite includes a kitchen with fridge/freezer, 2-warmer range top, sink, dishwasher, sponge, towel, dish soap, coffee K-cup machine and dish ware. It's not the largest suite ever -- no sofa or second TV or anything like that.
PROS:
~Quiet
~The room is equipped with the basics like an iron, ironing board, safe, comfy bed, 2 pillows pp, clock, USB ports, Dove toiletries in pumps including lotion, extra towels, nightlight.
~Modern decor
~Nice lobby seating area with coffee/tea
~Clean, except for a 'hairball' we found on one of the bath towels. See my notes about the cleanliness of breakfast below.
~Staff were friendly enough, but not overly so, verging on kind of 'off'.
~Quick responding elevators
CONS:
~Not many restaurants or amenities within walking distance.
~Found a 'hairball' on our "clean" bath towel.
~No real views to speak of.
~ The breakfast area was nice with plenty of seating, but that's about it. The floor was sticky to the point where your shoes made a big 'schwack schwack' sound when you walked around. I complained about this after our first breakfast, but it didn't improve over the the next few breakfasts.
~I had to pull several utensils out of the tub to find clean ones.
~The breakfast area was soulless with no music playing or TV news on. (There was a TV, but it wasn't on). Breakfast staff were not seen much and when they were, they were not jolly, smiley or communicative.
~There are 2 coffee machines each with regular or decaf coffee with flavored milk available. Only paper cups are available, (no china). The cups are too hot to hold without placing napkins around them when filled with coffee -- there are no 'sleeves' available.
~There were splashes of milk down the cabinets fronts near the coffee machine.
~Breakfast items included pre-made omelets, meat patties, plain and flavored yogurt, juice, tea, cold cereals, hard boiled eggs, pre-wrapped muffins, whole and chopped fruit, oatmeal (it was inedible the first 2 days as it wasn't cooked properly), bread items. It was adequate, but not the best hotel breakfast I've had. Many of the 'hot' items weren't that hot.
~The jams and honey were in gross squeezy containers that everyone handles. After the first day, I decided to use peanut butter that was provided in disposable portion packs.
Overall a decent hotel, but breakfast could be vastly improved.
