This area is expensive from what I’m told, and the price was definitely reflected when booking our stay. However, the hotel went above and beyond to provide us every service we could’ve ever asked for including yoga mats. And they did so in a timely and very easy manner. This hotel is also easy walking distance from most walking tours that you would complete in the Boston area and there was a couple of really nice breakfast spots located right around the corner. If the price wasn’t so high, I would absolutely stay here again, but would definitely look for something a little bit more affordable in the same neighborhood.
