Arrived late in the evening, was able to book via Expedia at a better rate than the location offered. Room was clean, desk staff was friendly, breakfast was very convenient. Plenty of off street parking. Great location for our travels. Be careful of the often interchanged The Hotel Boston and The Boston Hotel when doing research.

Staff were friendly and helpful! Parking was easy and had a lot of spaces available. The breakfast was great and had a lot of options including hot and cold items. Room was clean and simple. Only critique is that there were not very many outlets other than the one at the tables. Also, the shower head didn’t function properly and the jet stream did not fan out. Otherwise we had a great stay.
