The Constitution Inn

Get what you pay for

Points positifs : They were clean enough. It was a place to sleep. We'd gotten a deal on kayak but I saw you could stay there for cheaper on Groupon.

Points négatifs : Needs to be updated. No attention to detail. Showerhead was broken off wall and they didn't care to fix it. They'd painted the room but painted around furniture and you could see lines. Had "do not disturb" on door but cleaning ladies came in anyway.

For the money, it was ok

Points positifs : I liked the location in the Naval Yard, and to get downtown Boston it is only about a mile walk across a pedestrian-friendly bridge, and an Uber from downtown is only about $7. Compared to the cost of other downtown hotels, being around $400 per night, the Constitution Inn was the best I could find for not wanting to pay that much and for a close proximity. I would not recommend this hotel if staying longer than a few days, or if you are looking for something with ambiance. Best if traveling alone, too. Based on the rooms (cement brick walls, etc...) it looks like the facility used to be some sort of public housing. The area around it is charming. Again, for the price and being so close to downtown, I think it was a decent stay.

Nice location but not clean. May be good for colle

Points positifs : It was located right where we wanted to be and there is a YMCA in the same building. So access to a nice exercise facility and walking distance to the Constitution ship yard and the docks on the water front in Charelstown, MA.

Points négatifs : The bathroom was very dirty. Hairs from previous guests were everywhere. The comforters on the beds were stained. We were only given two bath towels and when we called for more we had to go down to the front desk to get them.

Functional, affordable accommodation

Points positifs : The venue was clean and the room I had fairly large and well presented. The bathroom was clean and reasonably sized. The street outside was quiet. Wifi connectivity was good, and free. There is a cafe across the street that is reasonably priced for breakfast

Points négatifs : I would describe the front desk service as functional rather then friendly. Little choice of food in the hotel apart from vending machine.

AWFUL

Points positifs : NOTHING

Points négatifs : IF I COULD GIVE THIS PLACE A NEGATIVE 10 I WOULD. IT WAS SO HOT IN THE ROOM. NO AC, THERE WAS NO DECOR, IT SMELLED AWFUL, I WAS AFRAID TO SLEEP UNDER THE COVERS EVEN IF IT WOULD HAVE BEEN COOL ENOUGH. WE HAD 6 FANS IN THE ROOM WITH 2 WINDOWS OPEN AND IT WAS SWELTERING. THE SHOWER WAS DIRTY, AND THE STAFF WAS RUDE. THERE WAS ALSO NO MENTION ON THEIR HOTELS.COM SITE THAT THE SECOND FLOOR IS A HOMELESS SHELTER/RESIDENTIAL TREATMENT FACILITY HOWEVER IT IS. THE ELEVATOR WAS BROKEN MOST OF THE NIGHT AND MY DISABLED SON ALMOST HAD TO BE CARRIED DOWN 5 FLIGHTS OF STAIRS. THE PARKING GARAGE WAS LIKE 4 BLOCKS AWAY AND THEY REFUSED TO GIVE A REFUND FOR 2 REASONS 1)THEY ARE A "NON PROFIT" 2) BECAUSE I BOOKED ON A TRAVEL SITE BUT OFFERED ME 20% OFF MY NEXT STAY WHICH WILL BE NEVER!!! I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE TO ANYONE AND WAS DEF NOT WORTH 185 A NIGHT.

Points positifs : It was inexpensive.

Points négatifs : The whole place smells like a locker room.
