Pros:

Great staff! Close to Fenway Park and convenient to other sightseeing activities. The room was spacious and clean.

Cons:

I wish there was a pop up latte bar with muffins or croissants in the AM. The coffee and water bar was nice but limited.

Pros:

Lage ist ziemlich zentral, in 10 Minuten ist man zu Fuss an der Newbury Street. Bus und Velo auch direkt vor dem Hotel.

Cons:

Preis-Leistung: schon sehr hohe Preise für ohne Frühstück, aber das ist einfach Boston.

It’s a beautiful hotel and very friendly.
Pros:

Very fancy hotel and love the location of it.

Cons:

Our room smelled like mildew and our toilet kept loosing water. We had to keep adding water to be able to flush the toilet. I also didn’t realize we had to pay for parking. The parking was my fault for not realizing it.

I did book from booking.com I got charge more through booking.con than what the hotel end up charging me. Next time I will go straight through the hotel than booking.com. I was very disappointed with booking.com.
