The Godfrey Hotel Boston
Great location, clean, spacious, and nice. The pillow was super soft in the worst way imaginable. It flattened into nothingness and had no support, leading to an unrestful night. It’s probably great for most people, but it’s definitely not worth $500/night.

The Midtown Hotel MOD Collection by Sonesta
This is a great no frills spot which gives you what you need and doesn't charge for what you don't. Our room was clean, amazingly quiet ( we had 2nd flr rear) and the bed was comfortable. Bathroom was small but very clean and the shower was great. Breakfast was just coffee and pre- packaged pastry ...
