"Unique property, very different feel than the often sterile vibe of a chain hotel. Decor was new and the room, including the bathroom, was exceptionally clean and comfortable. Food and drink was available right downstairs in the tavern. Coffee, tea and snacks were available in the cozy common area on the first floor. Would definitely stay again but would hope to book a quieter room as road noise starts very early in the morning."

"Très beau séjour"

Courtyard by Marriott Boston Norwood/Canton

8/10 Good

"Hotel was good. Nothing overly special. Modified Starbucks in the lobby was nice for the morning. Layout/elevator situation is weird. Pretty sure there’s only one 1 in the entire hotel and you navigate a maze to get to your room on the other side…or so you think, because when you take the stairs back down, you end up around the corner from the lobby. Anyways. Beds aren’t super comfy, but the showers are prob the best I’ve had in a hotel. Good stay. Would stay again but try to get a first floor room"

Hilton Boston/Dedham

8/10 Good

"Nice hidden hotel off busy I-95 path."
