Great overall hotel in a brilliant location perfect as a base to visit all of Boston.
Pros:

Great location, 5 minute walk to local subway station & great access to the city centre & main tourist attractions. Right beside Fenway Park with some great bars & food outlets within a 5 minute walk from the hotel. Room was very clean, a good size with kitchenette fully supplied with tea, coffee etc. Very comfy bed & pillows, friendly efficient staff.

Cons:

Only minor negative was the power in the shower which is weak but this didn't affect the overall great 6 day stay we had in the hotel.

This is a good Boston option
Pros:

The property boasts a prime location that enables you to realize any of your objectives. This is a working distance from Fenway Park and from “the Pru," which is Boston's premiere shopping in the heart of Back Bay, with many shops and restaurants… The stuff is very helpful and supportive. There are many spots around to have a dinner.

Cons:

Our room was, in a sense, simply quirky: constant issues with the air conditioning and electrical glitches meant we literally had to hunt for an opportunity to charge our phones through a night.

Fun time with my kids but wish
Pros:

Location was great and the pool had a nice view

The room we go was a view of a really gross back yard with trash. Also requested a crib and never received it. The pool was freezing.
