The staff was very friendly, and they made check-in and check-out a breeze. Parking was easy as well. Rooms were super clean and comfortable. The location of the hotel is great if you want proximity to Boston without being central to the city.

Alexandra

Room was clean and staff for the most part was friendly. Our floor , the 6th, had daily weed smoke mostly in the mornings. The shuttle may as well not exist. We asked to go within a 2 mile radius, as the staff and website stated, and was told ‘we’re not a taxi service.’ Ask two other times to go to nearby destination spots and was told they couldn’t accommodate.

Juan

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Great location, but a few operational hiccups The location is excellent, staff were fine, and parking was great. However, there’s a disconnect between Expedia reservations and the hotel’s system — I had to get my final bill corrected to match Expedia’s pricing details. More importantly, rooms need to be checked before check-in. Ours had no working HVAC when we arrived. The staff did move us to another room, which I appreciated, but the whole situation was avoidable and made for an unpleasant start to the stay.
