After a long day of travel, and stupidly checking my luggage on Delta (I know better than this, but it was a several city trip and I was tired of dragging my suitcase through the airports) my traveling companions arrived at Logan only to find my bag had not made it. Due to several delays, it was 2 AM in the morning when we arrived at the hotel. The clerk was very kind and made sure I had the necessities- toothpaste, toothbrush, deodorant, contact solution. I know she probably should have charged me for the items she pulled off the shelf, but she didn't and then made sure I had a bottle of water and a pack of cookies as well. She also upgraded my room. I was in a super foul mood thanks to Delta, but her kindness really made a difference after a long cruddy day.

The room was nice, and at the time I stayed there was a free breakfast, but it was not advertised, and was out of the way- down the center hallway at the very end. It was only milk, juice, ceral, sparse muffins, and toast, but there is a cafe that sells cooked breakfast in the lobby as well as serve Starbucks drinks.

I agree with the other reviewers that there is not much in the area- there is an Outback restaurant, but we could not find any fast food restaurants nearby. The hotel is in an industrial area, which is great if you are working with companies in the area. I would not recommend this hotel if you are just visiting Boston, but that does not reflect poorly on the hotel, only on hotel choice. The rooms were clean, up to Marriott standards, and are inline with the current Marriott deocration motif.

All and all I was won over by the kind clerk, which probably gave me rose colored glasses during my stay.

Last month, my husband attended a wedding jin the Boston area and this location suited his needs at that time. A few weeks later, we fiound ourselves in the Boston area once again and for lack of time in researching another hotel/location, we booked another weekend at this hotel. The hotel is located in a very odd (industrial) area and although there were a few stores and restaurants nearby, it was not a great location. This hotel did not include any type of continental breakfast, everything had to be purchased......not what we're used to when we stay at other mariotts. There was no complimentary coffee in the lobby which we could have used after a 10 hour drive. Once again we would have had to purchse it.....again, not what I'm used to with other marriotts that we've stayed at. There was nothing nearby where we could go for breakfast, we actually had to drive to another town about 25 minutes away. The hotel itself was very clean and the rooms were nice, but wasn't enough to get me back there.

This hotel is priced almost a time and a half compared to other hotels in the area, and it does not live up to its price.

Everything is old and renovated. Its all in place but it makes you feel that it was old sometime ago.

The big let off is NO BREAKFAST. How can a Courtyard have NO BREAKFAST?

I spend atleast 40 night a year in Marriott's and this is the first one with NO BREAKFAST.

We can buy a Starbucks breakfast if we want but why should I when I already paid extra for a room here?

Get the point...

The staff are a great bunch btw...
