Beautiful spacious room, well appointed, comfy beds, great breakfast, great service, easy pkg, walking distance to metro which runs frequently to downtown Boston, Harvard, Back Bay, walking distance to MIT. Few hotels downtown offer self pkg very happy we came here. Yes a bit more hassle to go downtown as you can’t just walk to Boston common but the metro runs frequently so not a problem at all. Great stay.
