Parking lot was filled with large potholes, room smelled and when I turned the air conditioner on it made a very loud rattling sound and we could not sleep. When we called the lobby they said no rooms were left similar to ours Not worth the price. Wouldn’t satay here again or recommend it

Absolutely discussing. Switched to a different room after issues with the first and still had cleanliness issues. The obviously didn’t clean the sheets or vacuum the floors. I was afraid to use the shower. Hotel needs updating in general.
Room tip: Don’t stay here unless you’re ok with dirty beds.

A well located property with well meaning staff that is crying out for a total makeover. This 70’s era hotel needs a total rehab and remodel from the parking lot to the pillow case. Everything from carpets, fixtures, furniture, lighting, everything looks tired, worn, or threadbare. I stayed two nights @ 269/night including taxes and fees. I lived to talk about it, do not consider it good value.

My friends and I stayed at the Marx for our college reunion . We were all very happy we stayed at the property . The staff especially Mary Ciampo was extremely accommodating, gave us good tips where to eat , go out , just directing us with all queries . She was very patient with us as well :) . The hotel has a hot tub which we used which was a bonus given how sore we were and the proximity to downtown was key ! No Uber necessary ; everything In close proximity . Beds were comfortable and firm mattress as well and fair priced . Thanks Mary ! Recommend your property and we’ll be back for golf !

The overall quality of the location was poor. There is minimal upkeep to the interior. The carpets show wear, the wallpaper is in poor shape, and the furniture is also in poor shape. Dirty sheets were left outside of an adherent room for our entire stay.
The pool and pool room were less than desirable. There are two doors leading directly outside; neither door is insulated and there is a gap at the bottom. With the outside temp being below freezing this resulted in the door being iced over, ice at the bottom, and the room being cold. The water in the pool was a questionable color. There were broken lights around the room, along with peeling paint and mold. The hot tub was out of service, and appeared to have been in that state for some time.
The morning breakfast was less than welcoming. We weren’t even sure they had put it out yet until we searched around the room. We didn’t eat and headed to Dunkin.
Room tip: Stay somewhere else.
