"Nice place to live (self catering type) but a slop hill of about 25m to walk through if on foot. With 7 day pass, it is easy to travel to Boston city about 40mins. Nearby, get restaurants and 7-11. It is a good place (cost effective) to stay for my Boston marathon and walk around Boston. "

The Godfrey Hotel Boston

The Godfrey Hotel Boston

10/10 Excellent
"The best part was the check in time at 3pm and check out time of 12pm. Perfect walking distance to local restaurants and shopping. Valet service was excellent and even though $65 may be a little pricey, you do not need to move your car for 24 hrs! Staff was very friendly and helpful. Check in and check out was a breeze!"
