1. This hotel is not worth the savings, stay at a more expensive place and get your money's worth.

2. If, however, you are looking for an expensive place to stay that treats customers like trash, then by all means book a room at the HoJo Fenway.

"Rude staff, terrible rooms, and a parking fee. Oh my! " Read full review on TripAdvisor 7/7/2011 Vote

3. It was expensive but all hotels in the city seemed expensive.

"Good hotel " Read full review on TripAdvisor 9/30/2010 Vote

4. I can't figure out why no one has yet leveled this relic of the past and built something more modern and expensive, but in the meantime, I did appreciate the reasonable (for the area) rate of $160/night, for a relatively clean and very convenient motel.

"The seventies called, and they want their motel back! " Read full review on TripAdvisor 8/9/2010 Vote

5. While cheaper than other hotels in the same area, it was still very expensive for what we got - there was something that looked like dried vomit on the rug, there had been obvious water damage that looked very hastily repaired, and it was generally run down.

"Won't stay again " Read full review on TripAdvisor 6/6/2010 Vote

6. It was horrible, way too expensive, rundown.
