10/10 Excellent
"The hotel is in a great location for sightseeing, shopping, eating and just a short walk to Fenway Park. Our room was neat and clean. Some renovations were going on during our stay but did not interrupt our stay. The staff at the front desk were pleasant, we especially enjoyed one member, Angie, who was pleasant and helpful. In the morning there was coffee, muffins and some apples. There are plenty of restaurants nearby if you want a more substantial breakfast. We weren't sure if the A/C was working in the room as it never really seemed to cool down to what we set the thermostat too, but we were able to open the window as our room was on the second floor. When we travel to Boston again, we will most likely choose this hotel."
