Easy stay near Alewife station

This is a nice hotel very close to alewife station and a good value for Boston. We had a nice room with nice amenities. The only problem was the ticket gate at the parking garage had issues both times we used it. They were handled quickly by staff.

The breakfast was excellent, and the beds and pillows were very comfortable. The people at the desk were friendly and helpful. The decor, however, is really depressing—all gray, black, and white.
