Old and dingey (as opposed to old and clean and charming). There was one overhead light for the whole room, not even a bedside lamp, curtain falling off. Dirty walls and soap scum in the shower, the bathroom smelled faintly of urine. Would not walk barefoot in the room or bathroom. The check-in staff was very nice and friendly.

Great Economical Stay in Acton!

The room was clean, but there was no bedside lamp, and the bathroom could be updated (add railings inside shower; fix window, which did not lock). The office manager was extremely helpful - having ice and hangers delivered to the room - and the EV charger out front was a real plus! I was attending a conference in Concord, and The Minuteman Inn was convenient and economical.

Paid for extended check out time (noon) but then we were awoken by knocks on the door at 11am. Didn't get in until 2am, so we needed the rest. Didn't turn out as we needed

Look elsewhere

It wasn't good. The entire stay. From the minute we arrived was odd. The person checking us in seemed sketchy. He charged card for " incedentals". I think it was like $78? He seemed like he was hiding the amount, and mumbled something about most people not having to pay anything. I still haven't looked to make sure that he returned the money to the card. Overall, we just couldn't wait to get out of there.

Very pleasant room. The bed was comfortable. The only problem: a lot of ambient light - not a dark room if you need that for sleeping.

Our room had no lamp, fridge or microwave. Furniture had marker draws and side was scratched. Room next door (where friends stayed ) had above amenities but was dirty. They bought Lysol wipes to clean the room. Both paid the same price. Good thing we were only there to sleep.

only thing i was disappointed about was the fact that when i booked it online it said there would be a couch in the room but there wasn’t. and the bedside light didn’t work which meant we only had one big bright light.
