The hotel is in a prime location, right across from Fenway Park, offering a view of the iconic stadium. The rooms are spacious and clean, with the added convenience of a sofa bed. The service was top-notch with excellent dry cleaning and laundry options. However, the dining experience left much to be desired with a deplorable restaurant. The price was reasonable considering the great view, but the lack of adequate dining options was a letdown.
