Great property.
This was an excellent stay. My only concern is not completely the properties wrongdoing. The first night there were two girls making extremely loud noises in the hallway and knocking on peoples doors until late night. I hate to point this out since I have three grownup kids. But the property did not make it a point to control the situation. I still believe this property is one of the nices AC by Marriot I have seen or stayed

Don’t order the White Russian.
While you’re checking in they hit you with an additional $25 for parking. The lounge and bar area that they boast about has a White Russian on menu with “local cream” as an ingredient. After watching the bartender open and dump 3 coffee creamers to start the mix I had to stop him there… it was funny because there was not a care in the world on his end, almost like I was in the wrong.

This is a beautiful property and I would stay there again. The front office staff were outstanding. Huge shout out to Kruper who went out of her way to get us an early check in.
The major thing that missed the mark is the breakfast buffet. For $21 it doesn't offer items like bacon, sausage, scrambled eggs and so on that you would expect in a great buffet. The hotel is also a bit further from the airport than was advertised. Ended up paying quite a bit to Uber around the greater Boston area.

Property is not near any Boston must see or do. Ubers run from $30 - $80 to get anywhere and the city is impossible to drive so you can’t rent a car. Not a place to stay if you’re a tourist.
