nice modest place in Boston's Longwood/Brookline area
This hotel is in the hospital district, called Longwood Medical center. It is 2 miles from Copley Square in the main part of Boston. It is less than 1 mile from Fenway Park.
We've stayed here twice, and have found it to be very clean and with all the basics.
The staff is very nice. They even let us check in early, at 9am (which was great after a red-eye flight).
Just beneath the hotel is a "food court" and CVS, which caters to the hospital staff and visitors. It's very convenient for quick food and anything you might need at CVS.
Short walk to 2 different "T" lines (boston's subway), which gets you to downtown Boston in about 10 minutes. It's also near a long serpentine park, which is great for running or walking.
We'll be back.
