The Farrington Inn

This place was what I expected from the reviews. Cheap, murder vibes, not deep cleaned. Or some areas possibly not cleaned. Horrendous mattress. I personally wouldn't shower in the bathrooms. I also don't have confidence in the ancient stained ac and wouldn't stay here in the summer. That being said the staff was friendly and the location is convenient. I simply needed a bed to sleep in and a secure place for my bags for one night and this did the job. Funky old building with lots of..... character.

This is not a luxury hotel and one might even say it's a bit funky but I really enjoyed it. It was well priced and in a good neighborhood with a lot of good restaurants. The management was really helpful to me as a tourist. I would use this place again and recommend it others.

this was obviously really cheap so you get your moneys worth but it got to a point we had to leave for another hotel after 3 nights. this is the place to stay if you’re on a tight budget and only stay for one night. it’s a communal bathroom and there is no soap or paper towels. the shower is dirty and the rooms are dirty too. we were on the first floor so it got really humid when it rained and the ac was very loud. there were stains on the bedsheets and pillow cases. i obviously don’t recommend this place as the neighborhood was sketchy and 2 ambulances came to the house next door during our stay. there is definitely weird things happening in the houses nearby. i gave 2 stars instead of 1 because there’s good restaurants nearby and the staff. the staff was thankfully helpful and cleaned the bathroom after we asked and gave us towels.

Cheapest room we could find in Boston. Has an excellent, haunted feel. The thrill of wondering whether you will be murdered tonight, with the relief of a locking bedroom. Parking is a hassle, staff is great, bathroom is shared, lots of creepy beat up Victorian furniture. I would definitely stay again as it has more character than most places. Lost a star for the price, which I still think is higher than the worth of what you are getting.

Admittedly, the room we stayed in was not pictured at all BUT, it was a cozy and convenient place to hang our hats for the night for our early morning trip out of Logan. Great location and reasonable prices. Lewis(did I spell that correctly?) at the front desk was nothing short of a gem! Would stay again in a heartbeat!

I was thrilled by my stay! Exactly what I was looking for, which is often hard to find: a simple, clean, private stay for an affordable rate. I felt especially comfortable having physical sets of keys to various door locks between the ground and the room I stayed in. On top of that I was enthralled with the beauty of the historic buildings--the Farrington itself as well as the rest of the area! I loved seeing an old rotary phone in the Farrington. Being able to wash and dry my wardrobe after being soaked in the nor'easter made this an above and beyond experience for me. Totally memorable! I resolved to return as soon as I checked out. :)

I've been here a month and a half and the bathtub has not been cleaned once, I keep asking them to. We were punished for having a dog sitting quietly in the common area, so not very pet friendly. We were lied to and moved to another room with no kitchen or laundry because we spoke up, so my groceries spoiled and I have to carry my laundry across town. I can't believe the amount of money I'm paying to be treated the way the staff here acts. The place is filthy and you have to beg for clean sheets. The mattress is broken and the microwave has clearly been on fire at some point.

The hotel is old. Everything in the rooms is truly very, very old — and it can’t be called clean. Our room had two windows. Both were broken. One couldn’t be opened at all, and the blinds were half torn off. The other could be opened, but one half of the window kept falling off and had to be constantly put back in place. The room smelled unpleasant. The toilet is shared and located in the hallway — also not a pleasant place to be. The mattress was so worn out that it squeaked loudly, and if two people sleep on it, they inevitably roll into the middle together. After a night on that bed, our backs hurt badly. There was a centimeter-thick layer of dust on the radiator. The walls were dirty. The staff was polite but did not inform us about the actual condition of the rooms. Right now, I can literally see dried snot on the wall. I’m not joking. I think that for $100 per night, this is an absolutely shameful level. Do not stay here. I do not recommend it. By the way, there is a small parking lot near the hotel, but keep in mind they will charge you an additional $10 per night. Don’t expect any towels or soap either — there simply aren’t any.
