Clean Hotel, not the best service, but I wouldnt want to pay for a hotel downtown Boston!

The only negative things I would have to say is that 1. the air conditioning was shut off for the season (we were there October 23-25) so our room felt like a sauna. We had to open the windows and turn on the celing fan. Also another negative was that I had a lot of luggage and there is no bellman or even a luggage cart to help. The front desk lady did not offer to help with my luggage either. Other than that- our room was spotless, comfortable bed, right next door to a subway station, and the breakfast was delish. I would stay here again. It is right over the bridge from downtown Boston, and we saved money to be able to go and have great dinners by not staying downtown.

Very Good Alternative

The Kendall was a very nice alternative to the large,chain hotels. Quaint, clean, comfortable, convenient, and accomodating. Excellent breakfast and reasonably good dinner. We would stay at the Kendall again.

Nice Location in Cambridge

I enjoyed my stay at this Hotel. Very close to the subway. Legal Seafood is across the street. The food at the Hotel is also very delicious. You are next to M.I.T. I plan to stay again in the future.

Funky Decor, Classy Hotel

This place exceeded my expectations enormously. For the price I paid I never would have expected such superior service and lavish accommodations. I was attending a conference at MIT and staying in such a wonderful room just a couple of blocks away insured that I was bright-eyed and bushy-tailed each morning. Obviously, highly recommended.

Comfortable & welcoming....

This is a wonderful boutique hotel. The ambiance is very 'Boston'and has a 'Colonial' feel to it. The staff is extremely courteous, helpful and makes each individual feel welcome. The 'breakfast' is well worth it-I chose to sit outside in the delightful courtyard. The dinner was excellent. It's a great location and I walked over the bridge into the city. The parking is a little scarey-you are best off in a tiny car with a powerful engine. Actually, I'd be happy to live there!

Great location for Visits to MIT

I liked the hotel a lot. It is a converted fire station. Buffet breakfast is good and the location is good if you are visiting MIT. Parking is very convenient in the basement of the hotel. One complaint is the condition of the rug in my room and the lobby. They are old and bit dingy.

Great Hotel for the Price

Affordable hotel just outside of Boston, one block from mass transit and you're in Boston. One complaint is that the alternate on-site parking has GIGANTIC puddles, watch where you step when it rains!
