This hotel is in such a good location for anyone wanting to explore Boston. The Lechmere station is close enough to walk to. There is a really nice mall which has been recently renovated and has lots of dining options. McDonald’s is almost in the backyard. The staff was amazing and very accommodating. Breakfast was great!!
