The ad said the train would leave early morning, but in reality it left late morning, so the morning was gone before we got to Boston. The Town Trolley is not near the bus station and it would have been good to that since we had to walk with a wind chill in the teens. The ad said the return train would return around 7 but it it was a 9:30 return. We paid extra to return earlier to make a very early flight. I️ believe we paid more for this “deal” than if we had made plans on our own. I won’t believe these “deals” on the internet in the future.

There's problem with the Hard Rock Cafe to verifying the voucher and usually if you are tourist, you want to catch up the schedule for your trip, I thought having take out is good enough to be a faster service, But apparently not. I think you should tell them that you are catching up for your trip.
