Had a very nice stay at the Charles River Inn. Friendly staff. They are conveniently located off the main route into Boston and only a 5 min. drive from BU. There is ample parking and a McDonalds and ihop are within walking distance. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. It's an older building, so there is no elevator. Shower water pressure is exceptional. I would stay there again, whenever I'm in Boston.
