We were on vacation and decided to book one night here. We checked in pretty late like at 9pm. This looks like an older hotel so take that into consideration. There is plenty of parking. The decor is very 90's but cute. The room was okay it had everything we needed but you can tell it's older. The beds were comfortable. We had an okay experience.

From the side of the Inn. Beautiful area.

This Inn originally gave us a room where the bed wasn't made. Absolutely unacceptable! They gave us another room that wasn't bad. The bed was comfortable and the room looked clean. My major complaint is the excuse "due to Covid". No mask being wore, hotel restaurant open for business, however no coffee "due to Covid" pool closed "due to Covid" It's frustrating when the world is open for business however this is still your excuse. I must say I think they are working on improvements however they should work on better excuses as well.

My family and I had an amazing experience at the Lakeside Inn. We were visiting Boston and found it to be central enough without being too pricey! Each of the three different front desk workers was SO nice and accommodating each time we spoke with them. The beds were comfy, AC was strong, and the view from our window was beautiful. Plenty of places to grab breakfast or coffee nearby, too.

Room was absolutely disgusting. My friend and I checked in and checked right back out, canceling our second night. Bed sheets were definitely not fresh. Carpet had obviously not been vacuumed in days and had an unidentifiable stain. Room had an odor of body odor combined with mildew. After driving a couple hours, we were nervous about even using the bathroom and opted for a gas station down the street. Housekeeping was taking turns body checking a door across the hall. Seemed like someone had passed out or something and was late for check out?! Not even sure how this place is still open.

DO NOT RECOMMEND this inn. Let me start off by saying we were staying here for our honeymoon. I did let staff know at booking. The room was dirty and garbage was left in the room. The comforter was ripped up and had multiple blood stains (disgusting). i called desk staff was not very helpful especially Karen. There was no toilet paper and two towels for two days and one wash cloth and hand towel. I once again asked to speak to front desk manager and I was told they would let him know. I am still waiting for a call. The grounds in back are covered in goose poop I sure hope no one is having any type of event there. The room is small and outdated the two chairs in there are worn out and tattered. For the price they charge you can definitely find better accommodations. I work in the hospitality industry and we would never give a guest a room like this totally unacceptable and not sanitary. There is no elevator at all so for some one with a immobility issue it's not a good option. AC doesn't work great the window didn't seal. And asking the staff for anything seems to be a bother. The tub was dirty the shower curtain was dirty. The mattress pad doesn't even cover the bed the mattress is dirty. Updates after approximately two and half weeks I received and email stating I would be getting a full refund. We will see

Eek... these look like they haven't even been washed.

True to some of the other negative reviews on here, I would have to say that this is the most uncleanly hotel I have ever stayed in. I stayed here for a night. First the hotel messed up my reservation - I requested a king, they gave me a double. I'm not overly picky as long as I have a bed, so I was fine with it. The room however was another story. Upon check-in, I found a wad of chewing gum stuck to the nightstand. The drinking glasses looked gross and looked like they had barely been washed. Scuff marks on the walls everywhere. The towels had rust stains on them. In general, the whole hotel/place felt freaking filthy. Wouldn't stay here again.

My party of 3 arrived around 7 on a Friday night and we're seating in about 10-15 minutes. It was a…read morebusy night, there wasn't an open space at the bar, so we were so thankful to be seated without reservations. The interior is nicely decorated, and for a smaller (than most) restaurant on a busy Friday night, we got our food and drinks pretty quickly. I ordered the Caesar salad with steak - I ordered medium well but got it well done, but the added my cooked onions to the meal and I was content. My mom and aunt ordered the short rib and they enjoyed their dishes. This is a cute place to catch up with friends, go on a date, or bring the little ones. Happy this is in the area!

I have been here twice and had a very good experience both times. This is a strong neighborhood…read morespot with a broad menu and something for everyone. There are plenty of options for food, beer, wine, and cocktails, which makes it easy for groups. Service was exceptional on both visits. Friendly, attentive, and well paced without feeling rushed. That stood out and made both meals more enjoyable. Inside, the setup is comfortable and casual with a lively but manageable atmosphere. It is a good place for a meal or just drinks. The Stones is located right in downtown Stoneham and has easy off street parking, which is a plus. On my visits, I had the cheeseburger flatbread once and a steak the other time. Both were good. When I have been in others ordered the salmon, cheeseburger, and Cobb salad, and everything looked solid. No complaints from anyone. Overall, this is a reliable and easy place to come back to. Good food, strong service, and a setting that works for a range of occasions. I would come back anytime.
