The hotel is updated with modern fixtures. Hotel staff were very friendly. Parking is very expensive though. The room was very clean and housekeeping came every day (a plus). I would definitely stay here again. Conveniently located near metro station which was nice.

We had a family trip to Fenway so we picked this hotel because of location. What a perfect spot! Less than a 10 minute walk to Fenway, staff were all extremely friendly and helpful. Valet parking to make life easy in the busy city. The hotel is beautiful and well kept. Rooms are clean and modern. The beds are a little hard, but it was only one night so that was ok. Overall I would absolutely recommend staying here for the convenience and proximity to Fenway.
