Pros:-Location, right on subway line, close to fenway, back bay-Price: very inexpensive compared to other larger chain hotels-Everything was clean and housekeeping staff were friendly and thorough-Comfortable bed-Ipod docking station-Refrigerator and microwave!-Laundry facility-Continental breakfastCons:-Older style TV-Small room-A little outdated decor-Thin towels, not many toiletry accomodations-Hard to adjust temperatureAll in all, I paid under $100 a night, which is a steal, even for the slow winter season.

3. The way they 'clean' your room every day consists of making the bed and leaving clean towels in the bathroom.
