Hotels near Bow Market, Somerville

Generally enjoyed our stay here, although the place has a few quirks. The location is great (quiet neighborhood, 5 min walk to the T and Davis Sq) and we enjoyed the outdoor seating areas. Breakfast was fairly basic but did the job. We hardly saw the hosts, and it didn't seem to be the kind of B&B where you receive a personal welcome or make lots of small talk with the owners. It seemed to be easier to reach them via email (which was answered promptly) than to find them in person. The bed was comfortable and we enjoyed being able to open the windows for fresh air. Internet worked well and we enjoyed meeting the resident cat. Our room was fairly tidy but despite the b&b being described as ”ultra-clean” we found long hairs on the shower wall and a dried up cookie on the carpet by the nightstand. Not deal breakers, but the room could've been cleaned better. The website could also be updated to show more current images and room descriptions. For example. there was no ”antique secretary” in our room, just a basic desk, and less floor space than depicted in the photos due to other furniture now being in the room (larger chair, fridge, etc). The closet now had a curtain rather than a door. We heard quite a bit of noise from the neighboring room (talking, coughing, child crying) but guess that is to be expected in a house. Overall, a convenient and comfortable place to stay, but could use a little freshening up and may not be to everyone's taste.

The room facilities and other facilities are basically the same as the Wynn in Las Vegas, and they are also similar to those in Macau. Even the English on the toiletry box is bigger than the Chinese. This price is very good value for money for hotels of the same class in Boston. However, the hotel's food is inconvenient and there are many gamblers, which is a bit troublesome. The quality of front desk staff varies. The employees at the beginning were pretty good, but the employees you know later were much worse.

The room is suitable for a large family because it is a suite, equivalent to two bedrooms. The only inconvenience is that it's a bit far from the subway station, but it's not far from Harvard and MIT, which is quite convenient. There is a Whole Food supermarket nearby where you can buy some things. There was too little food at the buffet, but Starbucks gave me a pot of coffee, which was great

The location of this hostel is amazing! I stayed there for two nights in a six bed female dorm. The sheets were fresh and the hostel clean. Looking at some reviews here please keep something in mind: This is a hostel with a lot of people going in and out. Boston is an expensive city and you can’t find hotels in that location for less that $300-400 a night during busy seasons. So while this hostel might seem expensive at first, it is relatively cheap in comparison to hotels. Also consider the taxes. My bed was $69 but after tax, membership and all, I came close to a $100. Also, you’ll be sharing a room. There will be people coming in and out….what else would you expect? Earplugs and eyeshades go a long way. People come to Boston for different reasons, so they won’t be on the same schedule as you! However I thought everyone did great sticking to the quite times from 11-7. The mornings can get busy using the bathrooms, so plan accordingly. I thought it was a really cool place where you could work to many sights! I am glad I stayed there and saved myself from getting expensive hotels. Instead I used the saved money to explore the city’s sights, great coffees and delicious restaurants! Great stay!

Great staff, very clean. Was skeptical when I read ”bathroom down the hall” but was pleasantly surprised by everything! For not having a bathroom in the room or pool STILL 10/10 I absolutely plan to be back soon! Might rent a whole floor with our couples friends

Check-in was easy as I had already checked in online through the Marriott app. I had a suite which was perfect for the three of us. It was nice to have two TVs and two thermostat controls. The kitchen was well equipped but we didn't use anything except the coffee maker. The bathroom was large and had a shower/bath combo. The room smelled very clean and I saw no dirt. The breakfast in the morning had a lot to chose from and was included in the reservation. All of the staff was friendly and the hotel seemed fairly new. There is also a bar in the reception area.

Oct2022: 3⭐: I selected this hotel as a result of needing a place close to the house with easy access to the airport. I selected this hotel through the Bonvoy app based on it fitting the criteria I desired. I wasn't able to get to the hotel until the afternoon hours about 1700. I picked up my spouse from the airport and we decided to get her checked in at the hotel on the way to the hospital down the toll road. I noted that the hotel was difficult to enter and it took a bit of concentration to locate the front entrance of the hotel as it sits over top of the tollway 90. There were two handicapped parking areas available at the check in lot. There is a pay parking garage attached to the hotel and adjacent to the front entrance into the hotel. The parking garage has more handicapped parking areas available and regular parking as well. The areas are not good for large trucks or RVs. The entrance was located and I parked and we went into the hotel. We walked to the front desk and a female worker didn't greet us, didn't say hello, nor did she say welcome to the hotel. The worker said ”give me your id”. My wife was standing there to my side and I looked to see if there was someone else there we had stepped in front of or cut in line. There was no one there but us. My wife said what did she say? Is this the check in desk? I commented that this is the check in window, right? What happened to the smile, good afternoon, welcome to Sheraton, or just hello. DEMANDING my identification upon entering the building was definitely not appropriate. Having a bad day isn't MY fault. I have a choice to choose this location, not the other way around. We finished the check in at the desk, paid for parking, and we went to the room. We dropped off the bags and found that the bathroom door sags and does not properly close as it's hitting the bottom of the frame. One of the window blinds wasn't properly functional. The noise canceling device and the traffic was something to tolerate. Some vehicle drivers passing under the hotel on the tollway, enjoyed throttling the engine. This added noise to an already bad situation. Decent area food spots are walking distance from the hotel.

As a travel nurse, I need a good extended stay location. Located in Waltham right off 95, this usually quiet hotel has friendly staff, clean rooms, and located 20 minutes from everything you need. Housekeeping was thorough and punctual, all of the appliances worked as intended (when my kitchen light blew, they had it fixed before I came back from work,) and they’re able to fix all property-related issues that arise. Overall, I stayed 9 months, and if I had to, I would stay 9 more.
