Pros: good location close to the MBTA station, free coffee/tea/water, stable Wi-Fi, clean rooms. Cons: very small and narrow rooms considering the common US hotel standards, no buffet breakfast provided, no gym at the premises (it is located in another hotel nearby though).

The lady at the front desk is very nice. The hotel is in a good location, very close to the Porter subway station, 2 minutes away. There is a fast food restaurant opposite the hotel, which is convenient for breakfast. There are also supermarkets, restaurants, etc. American hotels do not have slippers, combs, toothbrushes and toothpaste.
