Extremely nice, spacious room. AC unit was very quiet. Shower was torrential. The beds were firm, but very comfortable. The whole hotel was fresh and very well maintained. Subway for a short trip to downtown Boston was right outside the building. The only downside was that, like a lot of upper crust hotels, parking cost is excessive. It is $68 per night for valet parking. I parked two blocks away at Somerset Visitor Parking for $33 (still not that cheap, but a lot better). I also found the hotel resort fee an absurd concept, but the base room cost plus the fee wasn't unreasonable for what you get.

I did not like that it was valet parking only with no access to my vehicle. It was also difficult to pull over just to get to the hotel valet. Very noisy traffic all night long.
