We stayed at the property during the Boston Marathon. The location was out of the chaos of the race but close enough walk, uber or take the train into Boston. We found great restaurants and bakeries in the area. The property is no frills with limited amenities. Breakfast was free and coffee available all day. The beds were extremely comfortable. The hotel could use a little tlc but was perfect for what we needed.
