Stayed in early April looking for colleges. Good location to many schools in and outside of Boston area. Room was clean, staff was friendly. Breakfast was standard. Only bad thing about this hotel was the sofa bed. Hard as a rock. Ended up requesting a rollaway bed the next night for one of the kids. Made for a crowded living... More

Comfortable bed/pillows and reasonably quiet A/C, I got a great sleep and stayed awake in my meetings despite jet lag. That's what a hotel is all about in my opinion. Fitness-wise, this is the East, where smokers stare at runners like they are from outer space. Use the fitness center for cardio machines, dumbbells up to 50 lbs, and a... More

First, if you have three or more kids and you DON'T stay at an Embassy, you're NUTS. $149 in Boston area, and we got great hot fresh breakfast, free snacks the night before (which acted as our dinner). We figure we saved $60 with the free breakfast alone. Place has been recently upgraded, and the upgrades are nice, both in... More

The hotel is conveniently located right off of I-95, near business and office parks. They have a shuttle that will take you anywhere you need to go in Waltham, you just need to book it when you check in. The rooms are very spacious and quiet, with a living room and a separate bedroom. The service is good, the food... More

We stayed here for two nights and had a very pleasant stay. The rooms were good-sized and fairly nicely appointed. I like the idea of having an outer room so that one person can sleep while the other night-owl person can stay up and watch TV, read etc. There was noise in the outer sitting room becaus it faced a...
