"Note I have stated at the Washington, DC location. That’s why I picked this location. Great location, across street from T, stop st top of Newbury Street, short walk to Fenway Park (and the Art Museums), - I thought it was a good deal for breakfast. - gym was nice and clean. - I m 70 and not particularly good with electronics, but I had no problem using the TV. (I didn’t view the preview, I should have done so, I’m sure it would have been helpful)"

"I chose a standard, no frills room with a shared bath and there was never an issue sharing. A strict noise policy is in place, which allowed an excellent sleep after very long days of touring on foot. The location is excellent, with great walkability in all directions. Parking was easy and getting to the I-93 to head back home was a breeze."
