56 year old female with a moderate budget, traveling for leisure

The hotel has a great location, right by the Fenway Park. I was disappointed that the pool was closed the entire length of our stay. The halls looked kind of dreary.

This hotel made me feel excited: We were excited because we could see the Fenway Park from our room!

I am somewhat likely to return to the Howard Johnson Boston.
I might recommend it to friends.

The location was great for trips to Fenway Park. The prices have raised dramatically over the last three years to include extra charge for parking.

I am very likely to return to the Howard Johnson Boston.

The hotel staff was helpful and courteous. However my room smelled smoky and it was a non-smoking floor.

35 year old male with a moderate budget, traveling for leisure

This hotel is literally right next door to Fenway Park and I went to Boston with some friends solely to see a game there. The location alone made this the perfect hotel. They also had a Chinese restaurant in the hotel that I did not think would be good, but it turned out to be great. I would go back!

I made reservations months in advance. Upon arrival, they tried to charge us extra to park our car at hotel. Then they (kindly) offered to cancel our reservations if we would not pay the fee. Lucky for us, Boston has many nice places to stay. I don't recommend this place. Who knows what other fees they might come up with.

I am not likely to return to the Howard Johnson Boston.

It was a little rundown. There was mold around the window and rust on the window frames.

67 year old male with a economy budget, traveling for leisure

We went to Boston with our grandson to see the Boston Red Sox and Fenway Park. This hotel was under the shadow of Fenway and perfect for our needs.

This hotel made me feel respected: The front desk staff went out for their way to help us find eating places, transportation, etc.

This hotel made me feel welcome: The staff was friendly even though there was an issue finding out about the pool. It should have been open for another 1/2 hour and it was closed. My nephews were not happy. I had them walking all day and it was hot.
