In the Watertown area which has a Target and a big outdoor mall of eateries- but be aware- it’s pricey. My only complaint is the stomping/running/ scraping chairs/ dropping things coming from people above us. Not sure if they had a pet? Or liked to do evening exercises but every night could sleep until past midnight. Overall great and breakfast every morning was one less worry!

So close to shopping, and dining options. Staff was over the top helpful. Front desk clerk named Roger was AMAZING!! Gave us so much info on places to go, tips to get there, and even coupons to go eat. So nice, and polite.

Nice stay near Harvard
Great Hotel, clean and comfortable. Nice room. A little far from Boston.. needed to take an Uber about $20 in. No subway out to the area. But other than that no problem.

Good Stay
We were there for my wife's class at Harvard University. This hotel was very conveniently located to the University. We were very happy with the services and cleanliness of the hotel. The only issue was with the EV charger, there were only two chargers from a third party, and I couldn't make it work for my Tesla. The front desk had no idea, and the parking was too costly at the hotel $30 per night.

Clean, beautiful big rooms, decent price, good location, easy parking. There is a bus stop close by, but make sure you have cahs or the bus card. They don't take anything else.

Overall, it was a fairly clean hotel and had everything they advertised having. The pool is very narrow—only about 11 feet wide, so if there are a few people in there, it feels very congested. The room was clean for the most part. Clearly not vacuumed wall to wall as we kept finding little trinkets/trash from previous visitors when we moved the curtains or slid the office chair around. The breakfast food was ok, but the breakfast staff were not the most pleasant people to interact with.
