Came to visit boston to see Ariana Grande in concert and staying here made my experience 100 x better! My room was so clean and very affordable! Service was 10/10, employees are so sweet and helpful as well! The location is only abt 20 minutes outside of the city which is great! & to top it off the complementary breakfast was very good, They had a variety of food to eat! It was delicious- thank you again!!
