Good room overall and breakfast is standard. However they do not give any water which is very weird. We all had to shop from a nearby store, very inconvenient. Overall location is very accessible though.

About 20 minute walk to downtown Boston. About 8 minute walk to Lechmere train station. 3 minute walk to market, Marshall’s, McDs and Dunkin. Not close to tourist area. Parking is $50 a day. One (out of two) elevator is out of service and no time frame of fixing. The working elevator needs fixing with unlit floor buttons and creaky noise when it moves. The bathroom has been refreshed and air conditioning works fine. The two queen beds room is spacious. Big flat screen LG tv. Typical breakfast is included. It can get crowded though. Check in and check out were easy.
