Hotell Homestead Boston Waltham - Waltham

The room was clean and comfortable, although a bit dated. There were a number of families (single moms with kids) using the Suite hotel as their home. Not what I was looking for in a stay in the area.

The hotel is conveniently located, and the price is right. It is a little seedy, but it was clean. I've stayed at other Homesteads that were not as run down.

This hotel was convenient for me only because I was having day surgery nearby the next morning and didn't want to have to worry about traffic. We also stayed a couple of days after before going home. For this purpose, it was a perfect spot. It was well worth having everything I needed in a small area after surgery. If you are there for business, it […] is also fine, but for a few more dollars you can go to their sister hotel down the street. The room is pretty average but clean. It is NOT near Boston for tourists. The T is not far away, but hard to find parking. This is a business area off a major highway. Not a bad place to pull off the road for the night either. Nice to have a full kitchen. Läs mer

Hard to justify a stay here. BED BUGS.

Sleeping in my car would have been better!

Any Hotel that does not provide basic toiletries - Shampoo, conditioner, lotion and soap automatically leaves a bad impression on me. In this case, there was just soap in the room. Additionally, they charge for slow internet and offer you faster fast internet at a higher cost. The room is just OK. Location is not too bad. I would rate it in the bottom […] of the rung amongst all the Hotels that I have stayed in Läs mer

I would stay away from this place. The place is loud. Outer doors that require room keys work only intermittently which means you have to walk all the way around the hotel to get in depending on where you have to park. (I had to walk around the hotel in the pouring rain which was not fun.) The WiFi is worthless unless you are in the main desk area. […] Room was not clean and it had a stink to it. Läs mer

need bether tv but is ok

I was not at all satisfied with my stay at all in any way. I hope to never have to stay there again or ever recommend this place to anyone.

no amenities. no lobby coffee. no newspaper machines or complimentary anything. Never again.

I wanted the benefits of a kitchen and larger room. So I booked the suite....Big mistake. The room is very dirty. Shower has mildew, carpets are dirty along the edges, and the linens are questionable. Add to this, they only "clean" the room once every 7 days, so my room will not be cleaned for the rest of my stay unless I pay a "nominal fee" to do […] so. They want you to take out your own trash (if its full), the old TV is tiny, and gets only a handful of channels, and paying for the dreadfully slow wireless is a pain. The first iron in my room ruined my dress shirt. Steer clear of this property. Extended stay is right next door as well as the Westin. Läs mer

We enjoyed our stay at the Homestead Boston Waltham. Great value. Located in a nice area near corporations and many other hotels. Plenty of parking, right off the highway. Wish there were more restaurant choices within walking distance, but we were happy to visit Bertucci's right up the road. We will definitely consider it again for a Boston visit.

It was not clear that there would not be daily maid service which would have been less of a problem had the room been clean to begin with. Crumbs in the drawers, on the floors and carpets. Hair on the bathroom floor. Hallways looked as if they had not been vacummed in weeks.

As other reviews said, the place just looks run down. There were mold/mildew spots on the shower curtain. Sheets looked like they were washed and pressed, but the blanket had a stain on it like the color came off something else during the wash. The problem was I found myself constantly checking things (bed, bath, etc) to make sure they weren't dirty. […] I shouldn't feel the need to check everything. I know all the units have kitchenettes, but I'd still rather not smell everybody's food mixed into one every time I open my door. Air the place out or get better ventilation. For a minimal price difference, stay next door at the Summerfield. Läs mer

This was the most rude staff I have ever encountered at a hotel. Anytime I asked a question, they gave me an attitude. I was just trying to figure out when my room was going to be ready. It was impossible to speak with a manager. I left him a message and four days later, I still have not received a call back. The rooms were nice, though.

This place appeared dirty. I would never stay there again. There is no one in the world I ever recommend to stay at that place.

The Hotel is generally good. Food access to those who do not drive is kind of hard. A Mac Donalds, Wendys or any other food establishment would be of Help. Staff should be on the phone all the time to attend to the customers.

It was a bit run down needing some renovation. the room was in the same form and shape as the picture in the website, however a bit older than depicted. The hall ways were dark, gloomy and a bit smelly. It was a cheap price, but you get what you pay for.....

Twice during our stay we had to be evacuated because of a pot left on the stove and a hotel washing machine/drying room alarm going off. I also sensed, after listening to the Waltham fire chief speak to desk personnel, that something (an alarm) should NOT have been turned off by the hotel management. This was NOT the first time this had been done according […] to the chief. More importantly, accessing a staircase was difficult to find. Läs mer

A very poor experience and wildly overpriced for the quality provided. The cost was comparable to a lesser Marriot or Hilton brand but the quality was that of a very bad Motel 6. Extremely unattractive decor, colors, furnitire and an extremely uncomfortable bed, no shampoo in the room, wrong directions to the room location by the staff. The room was […] pre-paid, and the hotel sold no additional services, but still wanted a credit card for "incidentals". Läs mer

Motel is run-down. No coffee, coffee mugs, or water glasses in room. Corrected after visit to front desk. Next morning, coffee maker did not work. Front desk provided new coffee maker when requested. Shower-head came off, fixed by me. Dirty used wash cloths found hanging on shower curtain rod as I steped in shower,and closed curtain. Water from shower […] filled the tub, and NEVER drained, was there when I checked out. Notified front desk. Läs mer

The Homestead was just fine, though I have to say that the mattress was the worst I have ever slept on! The room was not very clean, mainly the kitchenette area where even the dishes looked like they had not been washed. Location was very good.

The room had a weird odor, the carpeting was frayed and the bed linens were a decade old. There are too many options in the area to choose this place.

Overall the Hotel was a good stay for your money..However was not impressed with the TV not having imputs for games, dvd player etc. Also the towels and wash cloths were very hard(rough) definitely not top of the line!! The Hotel did not have a swimming pool and you had to pay for wireless connection..It was different amounts depending on how much wireless […] you would use.."NOT GOOD" Läs mer

I stayed here for two nights in October 2010. This hotel - although conveniently located - was dingy and the "non-smoking" room reeked of smoke. The towels were stained, and the wireless internet was spotty at best. There are plenty of hotels in the area, so I will not stay here again.

I had to knock on the front door and finally a guest let me into the front lobby (11 pm at night), no one was at the front desk, had to use the lobby phone to call somebody but no one answered for about 20 minutes, no shampoo or conditioner in the room, never made my room up on my second day (heard they were short of maids). The room was clean, shower […] hot, quiet but really was disappointing with all the rest of the problems. Läs mer

There are other hotels nearby that are much nicer for a little more money You get what you pay for. It's a place to sleep (uncomfortably) and shower Smoking rooms smell atrocious so if you cannot stand it and MUST stay here, please book a non smoking room. The hotel overall also smells like all sorts of cookings and cigarettes, so if you happen to […] love the mixture of smokes and foods/oils then this is your place. Otherwise, again, please look elsewhere. AC is loud but works Again, if you only stay for a night or two or three and can swing the extra 10-30usd please look at the surrounding hotels first Läs mer

Expect some inconveniences during your stay. The receptionist acted as if he'd known me for 25 years (he insisted on calling me by my first name). There's no 24/7 desk service - after 11 PM, you'll need to use your room key card to enter the building. Pray that yours will work, because mine did not. I had to call the night shift help on the house phone […] (located in the vestibule) in order to gain entry. After I was let in, the lady said that she would re-scan my card key, but alerted me that the card still may not let me enter the room (she was correct). I returned to the desk, at which time the lady informed me that she had realized her initial mistake and would once again re-scan my card, adding that if the card still did not work, she would issue me a new card (fortunately, I didn't have to go back for a second time). The room (a fully - stocked, no - smoking kitchenette with queen - sized bed) was clean enough, the bed was comfortable, and the bathroom was large enough (the shower curtain had 2 holes in it; however, the mirror was HUGE). The coffee maker and the free bag of coffee (more available at cost) came in very handy in the morning, and tasted better than "OK." Located next door is a Hilton Suites property that costs twice the price of the Homestead. Should you feel the need to be pampered and are willing to pay a higher price for it, stay next door; however, if all that you're looking for is a roof over your head at a good price, the Homestead Boston (Waltham) will fit your needs.
