Residence Inn by Marriott Boston Marlborough

Clean but starting to show wear and tear. Time to get ahead of it. No restaurants walkable.

Showed up to a room with broken AC and freshly painted so it smelled like paint. Place needs some updating.

Was across street from rink didn’t have to drive if I didn’t want to

We enjoyed our stay at this hotel. The room was clean and spacious with kitchen facilities. Target was nearby for convenient grocery shopping. I had checked in online and asked for housekeeping every other day (we stayed 3 nights). We also put the card on the door indicating the room was ready for them to come in. Housekeeping didn’t come, so I had to go down and request more towels. The fitness room had poor air conditioning and was hot to exercise in. The shower to use before entering the pool had hair which needed to be cleaned out of the drain. Despite those things, we would stay here again because the room was excellent and very comfortable.

Contentail breakfast had more optoons then anticipated. Lots of easy access to pther shoping and restaurants

Safe and convenient

The furniture was old, torn and stained. The service was okay, but not great. Cleanliness left a lot to be desired. The bed was comfortable, but one of the pillows smelled like sweat. We were happy to have the two bedrooms and bathrooms, but other than that I will not stay here again.

We used this hotel for a long-term stay in the area. To our surprise, it was poorly maintained (broken door handles, missing paint, poorly-kept landscaping, etc., etc.). We were so glad that we were in a room more than 5 doors away from the outside entry point, because the door would slam very loudly every time someone opened it and let it close without holding it. We've stayed in Residence Inns before, and usually (but not always) they are nice places for a longer stay. This one had a tiny room (vs. the two-level condo-like ones we've used before), a tiny kitchen area, small sitting area, etc. Kitchen supplies were minimal. While it was adequate for our basic needs, we were disappointed vs. previous experiences and expectations. A good thing was having a number of EV chargers on site. The location was relatively difficult to access if you need to come or go on the main Interstate, since you have to drive several miles past a largely-deserted shopping mall and industrial-type buildings to get there, or wind your way through a maze of residential streets to approach it from the other side (or leave).

Probably really needs a deep cleaning smelled bad. I was really disappointed with the stay Marriott normally is not like that bad.

Not clean

Friendly staff clean rooms and quiet area with plenty to do
