We loved it and we...

Liked: This hotel was perfect from start to finish! We had a small issue with our room in the beginning but the front desk manager gave us a courtesy upgrade (river view with a balcony) and it was awesome! The king bed was super comfortable. One of the employees came a delivered us a crib and then also brought a rollaway bed for both our son and daughter. The pool was huge!! And nice lighting and flow it was indoor but under all glass roof and side doors all opened to an outdoor bar. One recommendation would be to add a fire pit outside! There was plenty of seating! The whole hotel was so clean even the public bathrooms! The 2 restaurants on site had unbelievably awesome food a bit pricey but totally worth it and both had water views! A bonus Starbucks in hotel as well… we really didn’t even have to leave it was like a resort! Lastly, location location location!!! We booked this last minute as we wanted to stay in Boston a few days to extend our vacation and the location was perfect as it was right on the outside of Boston but in a very upbeat town.. everything was still walking distance! Mall across the street w boat tours, museum of science and train that went right into Boston, very convenient! All staff was so friendly!! I highly recommend this hotel and we will most definitely be staying here again!
Disliked: Parking was 45$/day outrageous but expected. Our balcony was very small couldn’t even put a chair out there but it did the job and it seemed like there weren’t very many rooms w balconies anyway

Overall great but the breakfast...

Liked: It isn’t bad but the smashed out glass on the exit door in the pool area doesn’t make me feel very comfortable that should be fixed pretty soon I would hope. With that the breakfast in the artbar restaurant was a joke that omelette was a joke only because the cheese was included in the three free choices for added toppings to my omelette thats BS for $12 I can go to the whately Massachusetts truck stop and purchase an omelette that would blow any omelette at the artsbar out of the water and my beverage with breakfast was decent but I’ve had better at Dennys Pantry in Greenfield by alot and 1,000 times better at the French king restaurant in Erving Massachusetts and the two auxiliary doors should be locked and used by key card only after 10pm other than that, it was a great stay for the price. I don’t think you could beat it anywhere. The only way you could make it better is if the art bar stepped up their breakfast game because that was pretty laughable compared to what Im accustomed to
Disliked: Security was shockingly lousy at 11pm I should’ve needed my key card to re enter the establishment that late at night I could’ve achieved that level of security out of a Holiday Inn express anywhere

Very good
