    DDaring-lingling1. The location is great, near Boston Public Garden, making it very convenient to get to downtown (DT). 2. The curly-haired young lady who checked me in at the front desk was very nice. Seeing that I had an elder with me, she helped us get into a clean room as early as possible. 3. The hotel provided two complimentary drink vouchers, which could be used for cocktails. There were also three $35 vouchers, which we could use just for breakfast. The hotel is a bit small, which is probably the only drawback, but if you're just looking for a place to sleep, it's absolutely fine!

    BbayuemaThe one-bedroom suite featured a king-sized bed and a sofa bed. With two closets, it offered ample space for our family of three. The sofa bed was significantly better than those at Homewood Suites in New York – it didn't creak and was actually quite comfortable to sleep on. The hotel is conveniently located just 300 meters from Chinatown, ensuring our cravings for Chinese food were easily satisfied every evening. Getting to both the airport and the train station is easy with the free Silver Line (SL) bus service; just check Google Maps for the routes. We absolutely loved Boston; it's a beautiful city! We used the Green Line a few times, but our transit cards never seemed to work successfully. The driver said something I didn't quite understand, and I also noticed other passengers weren't tapping their cards. I never really figured out why – perhaps it was free?

Современный телевизор Свет, кондиционер, телевизор и пр. Управляется с планшета, что тоже очень удобно. Есть два вида штор - блекаут и от яркого солнца. Район удобный - можно быстро добраться до Кембриджа, до Даунтауна пешком 15 минут. , тропа Свободы также находится рядом Отель находится в здании автовокзала, но народу немного и это соседство не ощущается. Зато рядом есть большой фуд-корт, огромный супермаркет где огромный выбор всего, в том числе алкоголя и готовой еды. Также через дорогу - литл итали, где много вкусных ресторанчиков и баров. В общем, мы очень рады, что выбрали этот отель.

    GGuest UserThe hotel charges a $300 security deposit and an automatic 18% gratuity on any food/drink purchased. A bowl of oatmeal and coffee was $23. There is no breakfast buffet available. The rooms are tiny and designed very much like a cruise ship cabin, complete with bunk beds! There are no closets, drawers or counter space in the room and only 6 hangers (to hang clothes where?) I had to use the ironing board for toiletries. The bathroom is separated from the bedroom only by a curtain. (I wonder how couples feel about each other after staying there?) The only window is a floor-to-ceiling window in the bathroom so you can flash nearby shoppers as you step out of the shower. The heated towel rack in not within arm's reach of the shower and featured hard and frayed towels. The room featured a large TV that was surrounded by LED lights. No obvious switch turned off said LEDs, but apparently the round rainbow-colored emblem in one of the built-in cubby holes turned it off. On the plus side, the hotel is a half-mile from the Boston Convention Center. Also, travelers can take the Silver Line bus from Logan Airport to South Station (or one stop short of the station to this hotel) for FREE! The one-way trip back to Logan Airport is $2.40. There is a rooftop bar that features a nice city view.

    YYujianjianghuThe hygiene is OK, not bad. The environment is average, close to the airport, a little far from the city. If you want to find living facilities such as convenience stores and restaurants in the surrounding area, you have to walk 11 or 12 minutes to the nearest Oriental Heights Station, so if you don't want to walk, you can only eat in the store. There is nothing to complain about the service. The facilities are always Hilton style, and there is not even a bottle of free drinking water. The only thing worth praising is that there is a free shuttle bus to the airport from 4 am, which runs every ten minutes, so you don't need to take a taxi, otherwise it will cost more than ten dollars. , There is no slippers in the place

    AAnonymous UserConsidering the price, this place offers great value for money in Boston. They serve warm, complimentary cookies daily, and you can easily get slippers, bottled water, and toothbrushes from the front desk if you need them. The location is excellent, with several attractions nearby. The JFK Museum was a highlight. We happened to visit during a Community Night and enjoyed a wonderful performance by the International String Trio (tip: they had another event scheduled for the 20th from 5:30 PM - 8 PM, so check their calendar!). Carson Beach is worth a quick visit, but be aware that it's quite pebbly. A Star Market is only a 7-minute walk away, where you can buy lobsters and have them steamed on the spot. Both the airport and downtown are a relatively short taxi ride away. Thanks to Ctrip's assistance, my overall experience was greatly enhanced.
