    We were in town looking at colleges. The Kendall Hotel was a very comfortable end to a hectic day. The staff were very helpfull and the room was great!! Great bang for the buck.

    The hotel location was perfect - steps from the T line and the decor was very interesting. Our room was very small but functional. The biggest problem was the bed. At 5'1" it was very difficult for me to get in and out of the bed due to the height of the mattress. Also, the room was located in the old fire house portion which meant that every time a T train approached or left the station the entire room rumbled and the outside noise was fairly loud - we were on the 3rd floor. The 'firehouse' breakfast was good but the dining area carpet was very stained giving the appearance that the room was not clean. Overall for the special price it was not bad but I would not consider staying there again, especially for the regular room rate.
