The food was good, my favorite was the pork and side of roasted potatoes with a spicy aioli sauce. Dessert consisted of a blackberry chocolate cupcake, raspberry mousse and chocolate dipped strawberries. The venue easily seated 100+ people so everyone had plenty of room, but the carpeting and interior was a bit dated

Edwards House is a great atmosphere for an event or meeting that needs to be professional but not…read morestuffy. The wood-paneled setting of the main room seems to encourage our event attendees (mostly workshops) to feel comfortable speaking or brainstorming. One of the reasons that our organization uses Edwards House whenever possible is because we do not have to use outside caterers, and the dinners we've had at Edwards House have easily stayed within budget and been much more satisfying and appreciated (by our attendees) than catered meals. The staff has been very easy to work with, and set-up and clean-up are always taken care of with no hassle.

We were fortunate enough to have the whole house to ourselves. We were able to use all the little rooms for small group discussions and the bigger room for group events. The sleeping arrangements were comfortable and clean. The only thing we had a problem with was we had way to many women who wanted to come and therefore had to have some stay off site. Not the end of the world, but did break up the flow and connectivity, but wouldn't keep us from going back.

We hosted my daughter's 8th birthday party at Sweet Meadow Farm after reading about how amazing…read moretheir birthday parties were and we were absolutely blown away by our experience. From the ease of the booking process to the day-of execution, the entire process was 10 stars. Hannah and her team went above and beyond (which I now understand is their standard MO.) They effortlessly managed all of our decor, seemlessly and joyfully wrangled 12+ children (and twice as many extremely excited adults.) The experience was educational and extremely interactive (We decorated mini horses! We held/pet so many incredible animals! The kids rode unicorns!) Even the coloring pages had our daughter's name printed on them. There was not one aspect of the day that felt like an after thought. The attention to detail and the care they show is so amazing. I really can't thank Hannah and her crew enough for hosting (far and away) the best birthday party my daughter has ever had. Core memories were made by all of us.

There were so many challenges to try, plenty of physical ones and plenty of less-physical ones, some that were better with 4 and some better with 2. It would also be a really fun friend or date activity to get to know someone better. We ate in the attached restaurant, and the food was a little pricey but very good. By about 1 it was getting busier, and we sometimes had to wait for a preferred challenge. Morning is definitely the time to go. We could probably have played for 3 hours with a lunch break, but 2 was a satisfying amount of playtime for everyone.

We had all day passes, so we were able to check back in and continue our play adventures! The entire area is comprised of well thought out human puzzles and timed challenges such as staying off the "hot lava" etc. Service seems friendly and involved. It's clean and has so many challenge rooms to choose from with different activity levels, too! I wish more cities had places like this, because playing is so important, especially for families to do together. We had lots of fun with our youngest granddaughter who is 5! Will definitely return!!

This place used to be my go-to for simulators. But as of lately it's gone downhill because:…read more1) The last two times I have been there, there have been 10+ teenagers standing around a single pool table, screaming and yelling in a different language. I'm not paying this much money to use a golf simulator to then listen to people scream 10 feet away from me the entire time I'm there. 2) it's always very understaffed. Now takes 10-15 mins of looking for someone to get help or get a beer. 3) it seems like they haven't put a ton of attention (or money) into upkeep over the years. The tee boxes are in very rough shape and it always feels like you're hitting out of a divot. Hopefully they make some changes... until then, me and my group won't be back.

We needed a place for one night in this area of the Boston burbs. We have generally avoided this…read morebrand within the Marriott family after poor experiences but decided to give this one a shot since it was a newer hotel and in a different format than the traditional town house units of Towne Place Suites. I do wonder how Marriott marketing tries to differentiate this suite brand from their Residence Inns which I prefer...? This location is very tricky to get to since it is on a road that is basically a 60mph street with no turn/exit lanes. If coming from the west good luck accessing the place. Also leaving the parking lot onto this highway is a danger especially with Boston drivers! At check-in the one clerk was totally consumed with a customer dealing with some non-check -in issue. Finally after waiting 10 minutes she decided to divert her attention and check me in. When I asked about a room upgrade as an elite member she mumbled something about them being booked up but it was clear from the parking lot that this place was pretty empty. This was the fourth Marriott property we stayed at on this trip and the least friendly front desk. The room was fine especially since it is a newer property though we did report an issue with the shower door automatically opening while showering causing a mini flood. Also the bathroom was tiny. The free breakfast was by far the skimpiest we have encountered at any Marriott property that provides a breakfast. It was surprising how limited the choices were. Also this breakfsst was shared with the Fairfield Inn which is in the same building (the Sheraton also in the same building does not offer free breakfast but I am not sure what stops there guests from eating here.) Overall a pretty mediocre experience.

The two suite hotels share a common lobby and registration desk, and a walkway takes you into the big Sheraton with its restaurants and conference center. So, make sure you know who you made a reservation with! The TownePlace Suites is new. Our room was magnificent, the guest room was large, the fully equipped kitchen had everything we needed (including a fridge), we had a coffee maker, a work desk, a flatscreen TV, and the shower's water pressure was the most powerful I've experienced in quite a while. The hotel WIFI was easy to access and worked flawlessly. The complimentary breakfast was very good -cereals, fruit, eggs, bacon, sausage, pancakes, yogurt, etc. Pretty much all of the essentials. The only sour note of our stay was our checkout experience. Not a lot of friendliness or warmth there, just a perfunctory "you're all set" while barely looking up from her phone.

I want to begin by saying I run a successful business that is well known in the Boston area. I was…read morenominated as the Boston Celtics' "Small Business of the Game" and my whole career has been based on "customer service." I also worked at the front desk of a hotel for two years while I attended Wellesley College and after that I worked as a paralegal at prominent firms in Boston before starting my business. I *deeply* understand customer service, professionalism, and the weight of negative Yelp reviews which is why I have quite literally never written one. I originally wrote a negative review (and it was the first negative review I have ever written on Yelp) because I had a negative experience with one of the front desk agents at first. But one of the things I also understand working in customer service is that if you give a business the feedback they need to make changes and to "make things right" and they are receptive to that feedback, a business should not be judged because of a one off experience. I was able to communicate my issues and I am updating my review to reflect that the hotel handled my feedback professionally and for that I am very grateful.

You still get the quality, comfort, and reliability of Hilton while also getting a hotel that actually has personality and charm that reflects the area instead of feeling like a generic chain. The decor is incredible. So much cool nostalgic artwork, bright pops of color, music references, and fun themed touches like old-school phone booths and a vintage motorcycle display. It feels lively, stylish, and upbeat while still being relaxed and comfortable. The music, lighting, and overall atmosphere instantly put you in a good mood. I got one of the newly renovated rooms which was clean, comfortable, and quiet. The bed was great and I slept really well. The gym is simple but completely serviceable. Staff was friendly and welcoming. The location is also excellent. It is very easy to access from the freeway and it is close to great food, shopping, and anything else you might need. Overall this is a hotel that is actually enjoyable to stay in. Clean, comfortable, full of character, and just fun to be in. I loved it and would absolutely stay here again.
