10. Immediate access to the 'T' (Boston mass transit only $15.00 for 7-day pass and very easy to use even with transfers); flanked by two good restaurants - Eastern Standard and Island Creek Oyster Bar; very helpful staff; great location for walking to restaurants, shopping, sites including downtown; very close to Fenway Park for Red Sox fans; junior suite large and well designed with good reading light and second tv for those who are awake during middle of night; safe neighborhood.
