This hotel is in such a good location for anyone wanting to explore Boston. The Lechmere station is close enough to walk to. There is a really nice mall which has been recently renovated and has lots of dining options. McDonald’s is almost in the backyard. The staff was amazing and very accommodating. Breakfast was great!!

If you are traveling with kids or friends make sure you get the 2 queens room. If the only option is King with sleeper couch, choose another hotel. There are two within walking distance. Sleeper couch mattress was so bad you are just sleeping in springs. No rooms were available to switch so we were stuck with two very uncomfortable nights.
