DoubleTree by Hilton Boston North Shore
The room was very clean, although the hallways were littered randomly with trash and splatters on the walls. The man that was running the spa/fitness area/looking over the pool was very rude. No one under 16 allowed in the hot tub makes it a bit difficult to enjoy when you have young kids.
