The plunger in the sink did not work so had to keep the water running. Bathtub was slick for an elderly person.

New Hotel Convenient to Boston and Cambridge
This is a newer hotel just 3 blocks from the Lechmere T station. I was hoping parking wouldn't be $50 (yikes), but the lot was clean and convenient. At breakfast, be prepared to produce enough trash to ruin your ecological footprint for the day, as virtually everything is packaged (muffin, cinnamon roll, yogurt, cereal, butter, etc.). Eggs, undercooked bacon, and (likely) microwaved potatoes right off somebody's truck. Next time I will eat breakfast out. Note: because Lechmere is on the Green Line, this is actually quite convenient to downtown Boston, the Back Bay, and museums. The Museum of Science is even closer, as is MIT.

Hotel service???
With the $50 reserved parking fee upfront, they should deffinitely have a valet parking service for the time that the site dose not have enough parking space at night. We all had to park our own cars off site in the middle of the night and walk back to hotel on foot since this hotel does not have enough space for the parking to start with.
