Decent room for the price. One bed side lamp didn’t work so no charging of phone on that side, due to the ports and outlets were on the lamp. Bathroom walls need a good wipe down. Staff friendly.

Extremely friendly and helpful staff along with a great location. Rooms were clean and sufficient for what we were looking for, a nice motel to return to after long days in Boston. I will definitely be coming back here.

A hidden gem. Place was super clean! Staff was friendly and offering us things when we came and went. Easy check in (and we were late af). Fridge and microwave were perfect for a stay with our small children. Shower was clean and water pressure and temps were great! Next to mcdonalds and i hop for easy dining. excellent location. So close to everything. So happy with our stay. Thank you!

The property is clean and the rooms are comfortable. The property itself is quite worn. Grounds and building are not particularly attractive, but the rooms are fine. Not high end- but they work..

Room was good. Overall clean enough. Front desk was pleasant during check in and check out. McDonald’s nearby was great as it was 24 hours. Tv did not have many channels. Overall a good place to stay. No nearby metro lines. However uber was available for 20 dollars or less to center of Boston.

We had a wonderful stay at the Charles River Inn. The hotel was extremely clean, well-maintained, and felt very welcoming from the moment we arrived. Our room was surprisingly spacious, giving us plenty of room to relax and spread out comfortably. The location was another big plus—close to many attractions, restaurants, and everything we wanted to see while visiting the area. If you're looking for a clean, comfortable, and conveniently located place to stay, I would definitely recommend the Charles River Inn.

The older gentleman at the front desk was just lovely. The hotel was easy to find. Everything was clean. The hotel is older and worn around the edges, but what’s important is clean and allows for a good night sleep.

I traveled with my 7-year-old son. The area was safe, and had a great park with playground down the road. McDonalds and iHOP are right next door! We were able to drive downtown for aquarium and museum of science quickly and easily. Room was spacious, clean and comfortable. Just right for us! Thank you!
