We were scared. We got no sleep. The AM staff didn't like what I told them about the hotel. They could not find the coffee in the AM. The only thing good was the clerk that checked me in was very helpful. The only reason that I stayed here was it was close to the airport.” http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Econo_Lodge_Boston_Malden/r1043667 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Econo_Lodge_Boston_Malden/r448939 The location is right in a very busy area of Malden, but not very close to the highways. Thank goodness for GPS! It was kind of a sketchy neighborhood, not very pleasing to the eye. Staff was not very friendly or helpful. The whole place had a weird smell to it. The room was freezing when we checked in. The door to the bathroom did not latch at all. We had to let the shower run for almost 5 minutes before we got any hot water. The top of the TV had big melted spots. The room didn't have any conveniences provided (no hair dryer, coffee maker, extra pillow or towel). The continental breakfast consisted of old, cheap donuts, a couple pieces of bread that you could toast in the dirty toaster, horrible tasting coffee and juice, all laid out on a dirty counter in a cluttered little corner just off the lobby. We've stayed at Econo Lodges before, with the same accomodations, for just about the same price and have been very satisfied in the past. We didn't have high expectations for this place because it was a last minute thing, but we were still disappointed. Would not reccommend and will not revisit. http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Econo_Lodge_Boston_Malden/r448939 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Econo_Lodge_Boston_Malden/r448940 Well if you have to pick a hotel room last minute this one will do. When i arived i had to wait for 15 minutes before someone finally came to the front desk, I got to the room and it was very clean and the bath room was nice and spackling, but i asked for a non smoking room and the bed and sheets smelled of ciggarette. And they also call you to make sure your checking out right at or before 11. Overall if you have to stay there then its fine but dont expect greatness. http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Econo_Lodge_Boston_Malden/r448940 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Econo_Lodge_Boston_Malden/r1043670 The price is good if you are not looking for a lot of glitz and glamour but just a place to rest.I was awakened by footsteps above our room on the second morning.“It is basically what I had in mind. Easy to get to, good price and clean. It met all my expectations and we enjoyed our time there.” http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Econo_Lodge_Boston_Malden/r1043670 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Econo_Lodge_Boston_Malden/r1043672 One half block walk to the bus took me to the Orange line Subway.The area is a little congested. OK for business and vacation.“Really convenient to get to, 1/2 block from bus stop which drops you off at the orange line Subway. Nice little family pizzeria/sub shop across the street. Area is a little congested, but it was quiet in the room. For a single business traveler like myself, it really suited my needs. Clean.” http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Econo_Lodge_Boston_Malden/r1043672 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Econo_Lodge_Boston_Malden/r1043675 None.Smoking stuffed in room, unable to inhale. My son with asthma, did not want to come in room, they said were out of non smoking room.“I couldnot/wouldnot/didnot stay at this hotel, I went to Holiday Inn.” http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Econo_Lodge_Boston_Malden/r1043675 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Econo_Lodge_Boston_Malden/r1043679 None at all.Everything.“Bad location, poor service, drunk people all night, bad breakfast, tiny room, dirty surrounding, etc., etc.” http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Econo_Lodge_Boston_Malden/r1043679 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Econo_Lodge_Boston_Malden/r1043682 Nothing.Staff spoke very little English, hotel dirty, poor parking available.“Will not stay here again.” http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Econo_Lodge_Boston_Malden/r1043682 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Econo_Lodge_Boston_Malden/r448941 I loved there free wifi it was very good and Guy at desk helped us with directions and things to do in boston. they are very closed to subway station that helps a lot. http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Econo_Lodge_Boston_Malden/r448941 http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Econo_Lodge_Boston_Malden/r1043685 Nothing. Crack Hotel!Everything. Bullet Proof Glass at Counter.“WE WALKED AWAY AND DID NOT STAY! When I drove up and saw the security fence along with construction stuff laying EVERYWHERE and then when we walked in and the clerk was behind a bullet proof glass and tried to put us in a smoking room when I asked for non. He also moved us to the first floor which I saw as WAY unsafe. The sign that said..NO GUESTS Without APPROVAL. This place is a CRACK HOTEL!” http://www.travelpost.com//hotels/Econo_Lodge_Boston_Malden/r1043685
