Fantastic in Fenway
Pros:

If you are visiting Boston, especially Fenway Park, the location is perfect. Right next to the T, a walk away from everything nearby. Staff at the hotel - from doormen to cleaning staff - are extremely helpful and friendly.

Cons:

You pay for the location, so while it seems expensive, keep in mind what you'd spend on ride share / taxis to get to locations.

A wonderful stay for 2 nights!!
Pros:

This hotel is located within a few steps of the T. Also there was a Dinkins a few steps from the hotel. Our room was very clean and comfortable!!

Cons:

When we first arrived, the stopper in the bathroom sink was closed and my husband found the way to unstoppable it with the lever underneath.
