- IFinoke FIFITA1 day ago5.0Amazing trip thanks to BRAD! We stayed here along with our rugby team for their nationals champ game at Harvard! Brad accommodated our family so well to make it our game on time! Thank you Brad you are amazing. Friendly staff, yummy breakfast, everything top tier being so far away from home (Utah)!
- LBLucinda BaileyNov 9, 20254.0Very clean, good breakfast, we asked not to be near the elevator and were across from it. Noisy at night. I would recommend it, tho.
- DDDTHNov 1, 20253.0I stay in IHG properties 100+ nights a year due to work travel. This hotel is perfectly fine, rooms are nice, beds are comfortable and the property has ample parking. The reason for the 3 stars is the breakfast was probably one of the worst I have ever had. Eggs swimming in water, might as well been powdered egg soup. Honestly it was lacking so much compared to the other locations I stay in. I’m surprised I see positive reviews on the breakfast. Maybe I just got the short end of the stick on my stay.
- SASandee AdragnaOct 28, 20254.0It was a convenient hotel for our stay between the Boston LDS temple and the Logan airport. The rooms were spacious, the beds comfortable and a great choice of breakfast selections. The check in staff were very friendly and accomodated our late checkout. The walls were thin though as we could hear the TV and noise from the room next door and lots of running and jumping above us at 11 pm at night.
- BFBrian FOct 15, 20254.0Overall great stay, with almost no issues. As a person with a physical disability, I need to rent a handicap room while traveling. The bathroom was spacious and the barn style door was actually surprisingly easier to use than a usual door. My big complaint was the shower - the shower curtain hangs beyond the lip of the shower pan, so even if you're super careful and don't aim the shower wand wrong, any drops that hit the curtain, will fall on the floor - away from the drain. Usually not a huge problem, but with prosthetics on, that floor becomes a slip and slide, without the fun and laughter involved. Added photos for clarity. I know there's nothing management could have done at the moment, I'm just hoping this review and an email might help fix future problems with just a bit of forethought. That said, I would 100% stay here again, I'd just make sure to position several towels outside the shower pan, to help absorb the water.
