Review:
The school was just across the street - the hotel was a short walk to Newbury Street and Charles River - the stadium could be seen through the window - felt like coming home - a warm welcome was given by staff - a second home in Boston - on-site restaurant was a bit old for breakfast
Executive suite was a starkly furnished meeting room - it was quite convenient to get to/from Boston locations - Fenway Park was around the corner - tons of restaurants in walking distance
Best car service - additional toiletries available - the hotel staff was amongst the best around
Spotless and well-maintained room - the staff had a special treat to make the guests feel comfortable and relaxed - first class hotel - Fenway room was the only room with 2 beds, others with king beds - everyone was nice and helpful - no coffee makers in the room - spacious bathroom - best water pressure in Boston - no Demand video system - no water kettle in room
