I found the hotel to be conveniently located not far from the bus stop and within walking distance to the train and bus stations. It's situated in the center, close to a variety of restaurants and shops. The staff was accommodating and the dining options, including the included cheese sandwiches, were satisfactory. However, there were some issues with finding my reservation upon arrival.

The hotel is conveniently located in the heart of town, making it easy to access major routes around Boston. The rooms provide access to local TV channels, but the service had a hiccup with locating my reservation. The included dining was satisfying for my craving for juicy burgers, yet the hotel lacks some modern facilities. Overall, a decent stay with room for improvement.

Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. On the bright side, it's conveniently located right next to 24-hour open restaurants and close to everything in the center of town and on a bike path, making it super convenient. However, I couldn't find my reservation initially, which was quite frustrating. The included dining with freshly baked cookies was a nice touch, but the rooms lacked access to all major routes around Boston for local TV channels, which was a drawback.
