Howard Johnson Fenway Park, Boston

Well We havent stayed there yet, but judging by the reviews, i would like to say that this hotel is not worth its money. I personally wouldnt even take it if it was free. The rooms stink The bathroom is not clean The pool give you a rash. THE END. THE HOJO is worthless

if the ballpark was on the other side of town this place would be a soup kitchen. nasty is the only word to describe this place. Have you ever smelled the back of a tuna boat? that is the stink of the hallways. bed was horrible and about 35 yrs old. do yourself a favor and stay away from this place.

Boston was completely sold out. Since it was not a game night the Howard Johnson Fenway was the ONLY place in town with a room. Paid $217 plus tax. Pro - was they have WIFI. Just ask front desk for free access. Cons - Unfriendly and overworked front desk - had to walk to street corner to get a cab with 2 very large bags - Room was well worn. - Bed had a strange odor - tried not to think of what it could be Yes the park is right behind the hotel but I can't imagine getting a nights sleep on game night since the walls are paper thin (I could hear someone's coffee maker through my wall!)

This was the first time my family and I went to Boston. It was my 13 year old sons dream to tour Fenway Park. We drove 7 1/2 hours to get there. Once we entered our room there was trash on the floor, you could tell that floor was not vacumed from the last people who stayed there. When I walked into the bathroom there was stubbles in the sink looking like someone shaved and they did not clean the bathroom. The toilet was like a public toilet and you had to push the handle up and out real hard to get it to flush. The T.V kept cutting in and out and the maid walked into the room without knocking the next morning. Not to mention we had to pay $20.00 a night (we stayed for four nights) to park in the parking lot when we were all ready paying $160.00 to stay in a filthy room. The bed was horrible, woke up every morning with a stiff back. The windows were old and need to be replaced. The pool area very run down with moss growing on the top off the roof. Thew lobby was nice. We will not stay here ever again next time we come to Boston we will stay at a better hotel and take a taxi to the park.

My friends, my husband, and myself were going to a Red Sox game and found the hotel to be very convenient. We arrived 2 hours before the posted check-in time and the front desk person let us check in to our rooms early at no extra charge, which was wonderful. We put our stuff in our rooms and called the Concierge to get us a cab because we were heading to a Brewery, for a tour, before the game. The Concierge said no problem, once we got downstairs there was no cab and were told the best way to get a cab was to hail one on the road. An employee did that for us. After the brewery, the game, and a little night life we went back to the hotel. The beds were comfortable and the room looked clean, with the exception of a cracked sink. The next day we all got up and got ready to leave, check-out was noon. At about 9:00 am our room door opened and it was housekeeping who was coming into clean. They apologized and left. The housekeepers went to every room on our floor and just went into peoples rooms to see if they were occupied. It was uncomfortable to say the least. I have never worked at a hotel, but I would assume the front desk would let the housekeeping staff know which rooms were vacant and could be cleaned. We were their for about another hour before we left. We decided to go elsewhere for breakfast, as it was not complimentary at the hotel. After check-out the hotel did let us leave our vehicle in the parking lot while we went to another establishment for breakfast. That was nice. Overall the experience was ok. My husband and I had stayed at the hotel a few years ago and it seemed fine, so we thought we would try it again. Would we go back? Not really sure.

We stayed because we went to the BoSox game. Were very excited to be staying so close to the park. I honestly can't understand how OSHA has not shut this fleabag hotel down! Mold growing on the ceiling, spots of who knows what on the top sheet, soap and shampoo of previous guests in the shower, etc., etc., etc. I could go on and on. And to think we paid over $200!!! I wouldn't even sit in the chairs and I immediately took off the bedspread and blanket- too scary to think about that! Very disappointed and would NEVER stay there again.

i loved the location. amazingly easy to get anywhere in the city from here and still not hemmed in anywhere. the floors were filthy in the common areas and the rooms were clean but they looked run down. well worn, maybe. not what i expected for the price.

the air conditioner didnt work the first nite we got there,we got no help moving our stuff..the ice machine is in the basement,the service is really bad,the beds were never changed,and the floors vaccummd occasionally..strange smell in the lobby also

This is a good choice for a reasonably-priced hotel in the heart of Boston. The furnishings are a little drab, but the room is a decent size and the beds very comfortable. Good central location.

Going to a game.... great place to stay. That would be about it. The place is not clean, over priced and the staff is zero help. I have stayed there a minimum of 30 times for Sox games and will stay there again. With that said I stay elsewhere when the wife goes to the game. She won't stay there. Oh, the other plus is the late night chinese food from the on location restaurant. Not great but will do at 1:00am. The final plus is that the street vendors hang out their before games. They are the first to know if there is a rain out.
