The hotel building itself is easy to get to. Right off I90. Right next to a parking garage ($30 a day). Near public trans. In a really great neighborhood. The reason for only 2 stars is the room itself. It's SMALL. That's why they couldn't even fit a queen sized bed. It was clean tho. Had a refrigerator and updated toilet and shower stall. But still, I wouldn't recommend for a few other reasons.... there were no curtains (only blinds) on the floor to ceiling window which means unless you're a farmer who is used to getting up with the sunrise, you won't sleep in here. The "free breakfast" is cold pastries with orange juice and coffee. And the walls are paper thin. The 8:30 am vacuuming out in the hall sounded like a jet plane. Finally, the price... We were in Boston for a funeral and booked a Sunday and Monday night for $137 per night. Not bad, right? When we realized we needed to stay one more night (a Tuesday night) the same small, bright, noisy room was now, inexplicably, $307! We changed hotels for this night. It's not like there aren't a million other options.
