Hampton Inn Boston Cambridge

Great value and good location

The recently renovated Hapmton Inn is a great, budget-friendly place to stay. It's not in the most scenic part of Cambridge, BUT it is a one block walk from the subway/train system which can quickly get you anywhere in Boston. I have stayed in 4 star hotels that were not as nice or accommodating.

Bang for the buck

You get stuff for what you pay!!

Location alright, rooms clean

Nice rooms, location is in cambridge off the "Lechmere" T stop. Was there for a conference at the convention center, which cost 13 to 20 dollars each way, the T system is really close by (across the street from the hotel and one street down) but takes longer, from the T you can get anywhere, no near restaurants but there was a Marshalls. The computer downstairs broke down a few times and had some printing problems, during the day it would get fixed more, but at night forget about it, told the night person several times but never got done. faxing documents was free... Continental Breakfast was pretty good (stayed ther 4 nights and had an alternating hot dish (eggs, waffles, sausage) plus your usually continental breakfast (cereal, fruit, oj, coffee) Coffee was served all day which was nice. they had an odd taxi service for that hotel on most occasions with then charging a set rate (18 to conference center and I think 29 to the airport) paid 23 from a metered cab from the airport. Rooms comfortable, but a little noisy. they were kind enough to let my friends who took a red eye to sleep for a few hours before check in, so very impressed with that!!!

moderate value fo rmoney

amazing dead zone for phones and quite far away from the usual places to see - Harvard sq or Mass Ave,

Worth considering for business or tourist travelers

Good: Just one block from subway station, 3 stops from downtown tourist area; a few blocks from nice mall with food court for cheap meals; high-speed internet was fast (unlike some "high speed" connections I've had at other hotels); decent free breakfast; staff were friendly and helpful Bad: room heater/cooler unit was badly located and unpleasant -- a wall unit that blew hard and noisy, right under window so it lifted curtains when it blew, and was right next to the desk so it blasted me from 3 feet away while I was working; I was there in nice weather do didn't need it much, but I wouldn't want that kind of room at a time of year when the unit had to be on a lot

Good deal for the money paid

It is very well located; right in front of the Green Train Stop. Very good and complete breakfast, and very clean room.

Good room for the money...

Like any stay I have had at a Hampton Inn, everything was very consistent. If you are looking for an inexpensive room in Boston you can't go wrong. I was a bit suprised by the lack of a mini fridge in the room.

Convenient, less expensive, comfortable

Best feature was being one block from Lechemere station at end of the green line on the T. Made daily commute into Boston easy. Free parking for my car means I did not have to pay for parking at either my hotel or in town, saved lots of $$'s. Bed was very comforatble, good quilt, standard room, but clean and comfortable. Breakfast buffet in morning was also standard. Overall very satisfactory and quite a savings from other hotels in Boston proper.

Exceeded the Expected

We were pleasantly surprised at how nice the rooms were. The staff was very accomodating and pleasant. I would definately stay here again.

Great for anyone needing to be close to EF

The location was an easy walk from EF and taxis run along the highway there often. Places to eat and things to do are not really too close, but a green line T station is very near.
