Commute into Boston
My experience at the Omni Parker was mixed. For the cost I expected more.
This hotel is elegant and clean. The staff is very friendly and professional.
The rooms are small, and the bathroom is very, very small (toilet seat lid essential for toiletries). If you rely on a comfortable mattress in a hotel of this quality, you may be disappointed. The temperature of the room was difficult to regulate – either stuffy or very cold with the air conditioner on. 
Please be aware that PARKING ADDS AN ADDITIONAL $42 (as of May 2012) to the cost of your stay. Only valet parking is available, and other parking accommodations are equally high. It took almost an hour for the valet to bring our car around on the first day (as a credit to the manager, we received one day of complementary parking).
If you are able, it may be more cost effective to stay outside of Boston and take public transport into town for the day, as commuters do.
Our room was equipped with an iron, ironing board, hair dryer (only blows cold), mini-bar fridge, complimentary coffee and tea. I am a stickler for clean – I always thoroughly inspect for bed bugs before the door even closes. This room was very clean (except for the lipstick on the water glass).
I will commute to Boston on my next visit.
