Very nice hotel, in a great location, highly recommended.
Pros:

We drove into Boston, and the hotel was easy to get to, and plenty of space to unload from the car. After booking in, we put the car in valet parking, which was a little pricey. Checking in was straightforward, and our room was very clean and modern, but a little small. It had everything we needed, including snacks and water, and the bed was very comfortable. The staff were all very friendly and helpful.
The location is great, we walked around downtown Boston, getting to see a lot of the historic sites, without needing transport. It's right next to Boston Common, and not far from the waterfront. There are lots of restaurants and bars/pubs around. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Cons:

The room was a little small. The king size bed took up most of it. Breakfast wasn't included, so we had to go out, but there was a great little place around the corner that served delicious food, so no big deal. Apart from that, all else great!

Brilliant
Pros:

Our room was lovely and spotless clean. We loved the bed and pillows. Bottles of water and snacks were replaced daily in our executive room. The cleaners did a good job as did the doormen who were so courteous and helpful. Always taking the time to chat and make the Scotland fans feel welcome. The location was brilliant. 5 min walk from main attraction, the common, the freedom trail.

Cons:

As the world cup was on the hotel room prices were inflated as were all hotels so that's why I scored it low for value for money.

Could have been far better from the get go. After long travel to Boston from the UK
Pros:

One of our favorite locations, central to Boston common

Cons:

Room 212 with a massive pillar in the middle of the room, an extremely tight space for a sofa bed … was resolved with a far better room next day that being room 513. The staff saw a big problem. Which I appreciate.
