1 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 June 2013 NEW

I asked for a non-smoking room that was quiet (away from the street). I got a room that was on the street and reeked of cigarette smoke. The front desk insisted that it WAS a non-smoking room and that smoke was entering the room from the hallway. Clearly the ventilation system at this hotel is terrible. All my clothes became... More

Stayed for graduation weekend in the Boston area. Good hotel with good service. Having the breakfast was nice as well. Convenient that it was next to a Whole Foods and across the street from a Trader Joes. Only downside was that the hotel is right off a roundabout so during traffic hours it was a pain to get in and... More

This is a good hotel with all the right amenities, as others have said. We loved being able to grab dinner at Whole Foods or Trader Joe's. Our room was quiet and clean and the staff responded quickly to a problem in our room. I highly recommend visiting Mt. Auburn Cemetery which was about a 10 minute drive and was... More

Due to an early flight, our group of 8 arrived at the hotel at 9:30 AM fully expecting to store our luggage before beginning our exploration of the Boston area. Imagine our surprise when we were told our rooms would be ready in a few minutes, AND while we waited we could partake of the FREE breakfast. This was just... More

We stayed for a week on this hotel, mainly for the price. It is a bit far from Cambridge main "attractions" and Boston, but there is a subway station nearby (10 min walk). The positive side from location is that it is located right next to a Whole Foods, pharmacy, liquor store and a couple fast food options. They also... More

Stayed here for six nights at the end of April and took subway to historical sites and museums in Boston and at Harvard University. It is 15 minutes to walk from this hotel to the subway station (Alewife station) and then 20 minutes approximately on the subway to the Boston Common subway stop (Park station). A week's subway pass cost... More

I traveled from a conference in Boston to a family gathering in Cambridge. This hotel is a real find for people staying in Cambridge. The breakfast is wonderful, scrambled eggs, sausage patties, hard boiled eggs, potatoes, muffins and toast. Instant oatmeal, bananas, apples and grapefruit wedges, orange and apple juice, and coffee. The staff is great and very accommodating, we... More

We stayed at Best Western Tria overnight while in town for a baseball game. The hotel was easy to get to, but right off of a rotary which made the entrance kind of difficult to get in to when the traffic was heavy. It has a Starbucks attached, and is next to a few convenient plazas. The hotel was quiet... More
