Summary: The hotel allows smoking. Strong smell of pot and cigarettes. Slamming doors and loud voices. It appeared that the staff didn’t care about the general chaos. I would not stay there again. Seriously, I think a motel 6 is a step up.

Summary: Overall, the Charles River Motel served its purpose. While the building and the room felt a bit dated, it was clean and the bed was comfortable. It’s conveniently located with easy access to Brighton, Cambridge and Watertown. For the price and a place to lay our heads, it worked out very well.

Summary: The room was somewhat clean. TV remote did not work, no channel guide for TV. There was no coffee maker but did have an ice bucket. Overall bed was comfortable.

Summary: Knowing we wouldn’t be spending that much time in the room we took the gamble. As our kids called it, mom and dad’s skanky hotel. It felt tired and unfriendly. We felt unwelcome as we entered and exited. Wouldn’t stay again!

Summary: Upon check in, at 3am, the staff said a room number out loud. I did not think about it at the time due to being exhusuted from a long travel day, however, as a single young woman traveling clearly alone, that was scary to think someone could have heard my room number. At 5 am, I was woken up by someone trying to open my door, and when I went to check the peep hole, the peep hole did not operate as it should. I have no visibility. When I checked it before checking out in the morning, nothing was blocking it and was just not a funtioning one. The rooms were large but it's clear the shower and tubs were not well cleaned over the years. I would not stay here again.

Summary: For a night it worked well. No frills but free parking, clean, safe and close to city sights.
