Good service with Free parking
Easy to find from airport using Hotel's directions. Loads of parking and free! Reception very busy but check in was efficient and staff very welcoming and helpful. Our suite was huge and comfortable although slightly ageing decor. It was wedge shaped but its not everyday that you get to stay in a remodeled (round) gas-holder. Included hot and continental breakfast items: coffee and tea available in lobby 24 hrs and fresh warm cookies appeared at 8pm. Free shuttle was available to several points of interest including subway. Because of heavy traffic it was delayed when we wanted to use it.( Other guests had found it reliable). No restaurant in hotel, but fast food available across the road and there is a convenience store at the gas station next door. Drinks and ice available in lobby. We found the location OK for strolling in the evening. Mass avenue is a pleasant wide street with fine old buildings as well as a large hospital. It felt safe, plenty of people around. Didn't see any shops but there are a few cafes and a 7/11 about a Km away. It was a 10 minute 'brisker' to the subway but we found that the #1 bus comes within 2 blocks of the hotel to and from the Orange Line subway, This enabled a quick restful return to the hotel from downtown. (All included in the one day metro-pass!).
There was some noise from the nearby service yard, but overall it was excellent value for money in Boston, especially the free parking! We had no complaints.
