really good stay near fenway
friendly staffbus stopsubway stationcold room
i appreciated the friendly staff. the bus stop was right across the street. the subway station seemed like five steps away. i found the access to transportation very convenient, it made getting around simple.
the room temperature dropped significantly one night, and it remained cold despite contacting engineering. the issue wasn't resolved. it was frustrating.
