Embassy Suites by Hilton Boston Waltham

Mixed to negative comments: several guests reported smudged glass, rooms that 'didn't seem very clean', bad odors, and complaints about beds; cleanliness is below average and inconsistent across stays.

Consistently praised: multiple reviews call staff friendly, accommodating, and helpful (including reception and bartender); staff responsiveness (room switches, lobby impression) is a strong point.

Generally positive mentions: convenient parking, close to hospital and local attractions, described as a nice location — location is a clear strength for many guests.

Mixed: some guests enjoyed spacious, comfortable suites with amenities (2 TVs, microwave, mini-fridge), while others cited dated rooms, poor beds, and an instance of AC failing (room 82°F).

Generally good: breakfast/omelette station and happy hour cited positively; pool and some public-area AC/elevator issues noted, and pool described as small/basic by some — amenities are solid but with a few shortcomings.

Concerns about extra charges and pricing: guests complained about unexpected daily parking fees, pricey drinks (e.g. $60 for two martinis), and disposable utensils; value is somewhat below expectation.

Mostly positive: multiple mentions of excellent breakfast, well-attended omelette station, good dinner and an outstanding bartender; isolated negative report of onsite food being poor, but overall F&B is a highlight.

Overall impressions are positive due to strong service, good food, comfortable suites for many guests and convenient location, despite issues with cleanliness, occasional AC problems, and extra fees.
