Description: Despite the name, one-night and short-stay visitors are welcome here, and it’s a good budget option at just under $50 a night, with rates dropping the longer you stay. Standard “efficiency” rooms are fairly compact but include a kitchen area with microwave, large fridge, stove-top burners and dishes, pans, and utensils. A bar counter with chairs serves as a dining table and doubles as a work desk if needed. The 136 king or double-queen rooms have free WiFi Internet access, phone with voicemail and free local calls, and a 27-inch TV with premium cable and movie channels. There are on-site laundry facilities and a business room with a computer and fax and copy services. Housekeeping takes place twice a week, but you can obtain room supplies at the front desk if needed. There are two floors, and smoking rooms are available. Pets up to 30 pounds stay with a one-time fee of $25 for up to five nights. Wellesley is off Menaul a block west of Carlisle.
