What guests think

Northland Motel earns praise for clean, renovated, and spacious rooms, friendly staff, and convenient parking and location, though ongoing renovations and basement units with humidity, limited airflow, and stairs create mixed experiences, alongside occasional service and policy frustrations.

Newer rooms feel modern and comfortable, while some basement rooms feel damp or musty and may lack air conditioning or natural light. Breakfast is appreciated, though in-room coffee makers are often missing. Overall, expect a straightforward stopover with variability between newer and basement areas.

I wouldn't have booked here if I'd known it was not senior friendly. No ramps only stairs - even stairs into the room. Place was under construction with no railing to climb up the stairs to the lobby.

The best hotel in Chelmsford with nice recent upgrades. I like that the bright outdoor lighting deters anyone from snooping around your vehicles and boats during the night.

Overall good experience. Staff was friendly, room was large. One item missing would be a coffee pot in the room. Everything else was provided. Entrance to the room was a little dicey! Mild weather brought melt from the roof which was dripping rightin front of the steps making it very slippery. Overall good experience and would recommend and stay again!

The hotel site indicated air conditioning but the basement rooms have no air conditioning, surprise. We were unable to login on hotel website because the login info was not in our room. Apparently the instruction sheets were out for lamination. The stairs to our room were unsafe. I understand the hotel is under construction and some things might have been missed.

We stayed in a basement room that has not been updated yet. Room 133. It was a nice big size but it had only a fan for airflow and the room really needs a dehumidifier to absorb the water in the air from the shower and from the summer temperatures. Our clothes felt damp the next morning and our towels from the day before were not dry. There also is not a lot of light in this room. Ask for an updated room to avoid these priblems.

So we couldn’t stay there where we got in at night then had to go back 20 min for an other hotel bc they denied us with a service dog! This isn’t right at all!!! So no not a good stay bc we didn’t stay there!!!! The service is terrible!!!!

I would only pay $60 per nite not the very high price I paid. And when booking in no one at reception even when leaving no one at reception. When I did get someone only thing he continued mentioning is no smoking no pets. Did not feel well received... Felt like I was disturbing him. I'm never going back

We booked and paid for our room two days in advance. However, at check-in, we were asked to pay an additional $200 as a deposit. The front desk staff claimed it was mentioned in the booking details, but we double-checked our Expedia confirmation and found no mention of it. Since we had already paid for our accommodation (2 nights), we didn’t have much choice and ended up paying the deposit using my credit card. At checkout, we were told the deposit would be refunded within 3–4 days. While this was frustrating, the rest of our stay was smooth — the hotel was clean and well-maintained, and there were plenty of fast food options just a short 2–3 minute drive away. Would recommend the hotel for its cleanliness and location, but wish the deposit policy was more transparent at the time of booking.

I had a basement room in the back of the building. I liked how they had picnic tables and butt cans for smokers. The rooms were nice I didn't feel like I was in a basement, beds/blankets/pullows were very comfortable. I do wish there was a coffe pot in the room but that was minor as tims and mcDs were close by. Also they were able to accommodate all our rooms together. Altho they were not pet friendly I would still def recommend this place for a place to stay.
