The hotel is in a quiet area, and is the closest of the chain hotels to the University of Massachusetts T.H. Chan Medical School. The hotel is relatively new and the staff is excellent. But be aware, the Residence Inn Worcester houses both homeless parents with their children, and refugees. This puts quite a burden on the cleaning and the breakfast staffs. Rooms are cleaned only upon request and guests must take out their own trash. The business center's lone computer is occupied most of the day. Of course, the State of Massachusetts doesn't pay anything close to rack rate for these guests, so others effectively subsidize the less fortunate. Just consider it good karma.
This day was comfortable. Staff was very courteous nice. The place was very clean and the location was perfect. A lot of great restaurants around with great food. Easy to get around location was downtown. Everything was easy to get to.
Except for a bit noisy on the side of the road, everything else was good and the breakfast was very rich! The room has microwave, refrigerator, induction cooker, tableware, you can cook your own! Convenient transportation, opposite the train station and bus station.

Carpets and bedding musty and lumpy, broken lamps, worn furniture -- everything in the room seemed 30 years old and unloved. Tiny cramped bathroom, with minitub, soap and shampoo in refillable pump bottles mounted on shower wall as at a gym, that pull off and fall into tub when you try to use them (and hardly seems sanitary that every guest has their hands all over them). Below freezing cold outside but a/c was blasting frigid air, controls and on/off switch on a/c-heating unit not functioning, wall temperature control box not operable by guest. The room seemed like housekeeping had not been in it since several months before in summer -- how else would nobody have noticed the a/c blasting frigid air before February? Ended up trying to block the icy blast from the a/c blower by covering vent with towels, bedspread, but not successful. Jacuzzi spa was completely drained and bone dry -- with strips of moldy duct tape stretch across it like a giant asterisk -- that duct tape looked pretty old and discolored, as if placed there a long time before: ”Oh, we're waiting for a part,” says the desk. Right. Pool looked fine but was closed: ”Oh we're down for maintenance.” ”Oh we're waiting for the inspector.” When paid-in-advance customer opines they chose the hotel for pool and jacuzzi, is told by desk, ”We'll refund one night from your bill.” A total lie. Despicable: charging for facilities and services they've no intention of providing, lying to customer re refund just to stop them from demanding what they paid for. This place effectively has no pool and no jacuzzi, and negligent maintenance altogether. Oh and the ”breakfast available” will set you back about $20 per person with tax. They display bottles of water prominently in the room, but fine print on the label warns they are only ”free” if you first pay a hefty rewards program membership fee. $50 per night ”incidentals fee” swiped from your credit card on check-in, I guess in case you drink of the forbidden water. I cannot comprehend the level of pettiness in the corporate boardroom when policies creating this nickel-and-dimey guest-hostile operation were decided. It is beyond cheap, it is beyond a clip joint: it is fraud. Was in town for events, so no time or energy for the distraction of acting as unpaid consultant to this absolute disaster of a company -- incompetence plus bad attitude all around -- the antithesis of hospitality. Must to avoid.
Every time I go to Worcester, this hotel is my favorite. Convenient parking, large hotel rooms, and good breakfast. You can have a very nice breakfast for 12 yuan.
Parking is free, on the ground. Breakfast is very simple, Western-style, scrambled eggs, patties, thick cereals, baked potato pieces, juice, bread, fried eggs, can be self-service at a single point. It is a style of American family, the facilities are not bad, but it is not a style with domestic hotels. The location is OK, basically in the university. It’s enough for me, not a vacation.
I stayed in the Hampton Inn because of it's proximity to my doctors office. It was forecasted to snow and my doctor's appointment was absolutely necessary for me to receive my infusion of medication on schedule despite the forecasted snow.
The service I received was good although it began with some confusion about my bill. My reservation was prepaid but it took a while to find this information in the hotel's computer system. I had a restful evening and got to my appointment in the morning without incident and for this I am grateful.
There were a few issues that I think need to be addressed. First, ice was not available on each floor and there was no complimentary water in my room. I was disappointed with the unsatisfactory condition of the refrigerator and there was no recycling bin in my room. There was no handle or bar on the shower door to open the door after showering and there was no place to put my towel convenient to the shower stall once I was done. The toilet paper holder was awkward to use forcing me to remove the toilet paper from it and leave it on the sink.
These issues are minor in nature but cumulatively they made my stay below average for the price I paid. It was not horrible and no part of my stay was compromised but I have stayed at other Hampton Inns that were exceptional, which is why I chose this one for this important stay. I did have a choice of a Marriot equidistant from my doctor's office. In the future, if I am in need of staying overnight convenient to my doctor's office, I will give the Marriot a chance. Thank you for your attention to these issues and I am hopeful that they are addressed to make the stay of other travelers exceptional.
The excellent staff made our stay enjoyable and comfortable!! We felt very welcomed here. Our little dog was also treated with great dignity! The room was large and very clean! There were no hairs in the bathroom. There were two clean trash cans in the room that had trash liners. The linens on at least one of the beds were clean and fresh. The room had been renovated but was a little bit worn. However it was very clean!!! There was some construction work at night on a nearby road but the wifi was excellent and I was able to stream relaxing music all night to cover the noise from the nearby construction. The building and the lobby are really beautiful. There were a few things that were under repair, like plumbing for the breakfast and lobby coffee but the staff handled it wisely and came up with great solutions!! I would definitely stay here again!
Stayed in a one bedroom ”suite” with the most disgusting bath/ shower. When I complained/ asked for a new room, I was told that all the baths are the same because Auburn has hard water, so they just paint over the rust... If this is what the bath in a suite looks like, I would hate to see the other rooms.
Good stay . The building was under construction so it threw me off a Iittle bit but nice and clean room
Very Good

Worcester Art Museum
Ppalettes_nyThis art gallery is also a big surprise for a self-driving trip in Worcester. I didn't expect that the second largest art museum in New England is hidden in the town. There are more than 35,000 works of art on display. The museum has a total of 4 floors and is also equipped with a small cafe and shop. The exterior design of the museum is also very distinctive, and there is a small garden. There are also workshops every week, which are open to the public. There are also many exhibits. It is a very interactive art gallery. There is also an Asian pavilion on the first floor of the museum, which contains many Asian art exhibits. It feels very friendly when visiting. The overall architectural design of the museum, especially the interior, is particularly suitable for taking photos. The color of the museum is also very strong. I especially like the Salisbury Hall on the second floor. There are sometimes special exhibitions on the first floor. Compared with the classical paintings in the exhibition hall, the special exhibitions are generally modern art works.
