Excelente hotel em região mais isolada
Pros:

O banheiro e o quarto são ótimos!

Cons:

O trânsito na região é pesado, a distância pra região de Harvard é pequena mas o deslocamento não foi tão fácil quanto se vê no mapa. É desanimador se deslocar pra outra região.

Pros:

The room was very nice and put together.

Cons:

I think the staff could've been a little more friendly. Also the amount to pay for a mediocre breakfast was insane.

Ótimo
Pros:

O hotel é moderno e o quarto é espaçoso, com boas instalações, e fica próximo à estação de Alewife (durante o dia é mais confortável cortar caminho pela reserva, porque o trajeto é mais plano).
Todos do staff foram muito educados e prestativos, atendendo as nossas solicitações com muita rapidez. Destaque para o senhor que nos atendia no café da manhã, que foi extremamente gentil, atencioso e profissional.

Ca ne devrait pas s’appeler Marriott
Pros:

Emplacement à proximité du métro Alewife

Cons:

L’hôtel est en bord d’autoroute … c’est à dire avec du traffic du 4h du matin jusqu’à 23h !
Je n’ai pas eu la chambre que j’avais réservé, malgré ma réclamation, il ne s’est rien passé et personne ne m’a tenu informé.
Personne n’aide pour les bagages.
