4. I liked the low key, but friendly staff that was 100% devoid of pomposity and pretentiousness, the size of room, and a location mid way between Brookline and the major sites of Boston.

6. Front desk check-in folks were a little pretentious as most folks staying there were 'baseball fans' and not high powered business folks, but maybe thats the 'Boston' way.
