the price is okay. not bad, and no surprise.
one bad thing is their free Wi-fi was really terrible... I'm not sure if it would be better when you buy the wi-fi service...
for a traveler, it is really a good choice. the location is very convenient for you to go anywhere. the T red line is just by the hotel. if you visit Boston and wanna look around. it should be a good location to stay.

I stayed one night for business. I would rate the actual hotel a 3.5 but several factors went into the overall 3 rating. The interior of the hotel and rooms are in good shape, seems like it has been rennovated some time in the past few years. The furnishings, bedding and room were all in good shape. The room was large and the staff was helpful and friendly.

There was plenty of outlets to plug-in all your gagets, the flat Screen TV was large, the internet was very fast and consistent (no dropping) and the hotel was very clean.

The outside doesn't seem like it was rennovated but the hotel doesn't look bad from the outside. They charge $10/night for parking which is reasonable for downtown Boston but the hotel isn't in downtown, it is several miles away. The price of the actual room was good enough that the $10 is more than reasonable.

A couple of negatives that made me give the overall rating a 3. First, there was one person at the Desk and there was a substantial number of folks that needed to be checked in. He did a great job getting us all checked in as quickly as possible but it still took a while. I am not sure how busy the hotel was but they could have used a second person at the front desk.

There is no real restaurant onsite and or with-in walking distance. The onsite facility was a sandwhich shop, cafe type place that also had a couple of "dinner" like options such as buffalo wings, a burger, etc. The Cafe also had hot breakfast items but I skipped breakfast because the sandwhich I had at was not particularly good.

Doubletrees are a bit all over the place in terms of amenities and theme but this is the first one I have ever stayed at that didn't have a real restaurant onsite. My guess is this place was another brand before the rennovations and when the rennovations were completed they changed the branding to a Doubletree.

The heat was a little too loud and definitely louder than I would have expected. Also, it was hard to control the room not being too cold or too hot.

The hotel is convenient to the T like the other reviewers said but it was still about a mile. The hotel is also near the UMASS campas and the JFK Library. Unoess you want to eat at the cafe you will need to drive to find a restaurant. The area is a little confusing so get direction

I would give the hotel another shot if business calls for a visit right near by.

The business center had I think 3 new PCs and a laser printer or two. Te gym was a decent size too with a reasoanle amount of equipment and selectiom.

We made arrangements to stay at the hotel the last minute. I was not stayed at a Doubletree before, so I was not sure what to expect. The price was great for being in Boston. The place was clean, beds comfortable. The staff at the desk was very friendly. They suggested a restaurant close by that was amazing. Parking is $10. Cheaper compared to other hotels in the city.

This was our second time staying at the Doubletree Club Boston Bayside. We chose it because it is an easy five-minute walk to the UMASS/JFK Library T-station on the Red LIne, providing convenient access into Boston. We were also able to get a good deal on hotels.com that basically covered the $10 parking fee.

The room was basic but very nice and recently renovated. We were near the elevator but were not bothered by any noise as I feared we might be. There is free internet access available in the lobby area, but there is a charge for in-room access. The front desk staff were pleasant and helpful, but since there were just two of them (and sometimes only one), a line could quickly develop. While we did not use it, I noticed a sign about shuttle service into the center of Boston and also to the airport. There is a small cafe attached with limited offerings.

If you need a reasonably priced room in the Boston area for just a night or two, this is a great choice.
