The hotel is ideally positioned in the heart of the city, very close to the Hynes convention center through the Prudential center, making it convenient for both business and leisure travelers. The rooms are spacious and modern, offering a comfortable stay, but the lack of closets may be inconvenient for longer stays. The service at the reception desk is top-notch, and the laundry service is efficient. The location is fantastic, within walking distance to Common park, the historic center, and close to a metro station, providing easy access to explore the city. The dining experience includes jam and is satisfactory. The facilities are well-maintained, and the price offers good value for money.
