Overall, would go again and we recommend going as long as you are ok with the valet parking per day option/cost.

Liked:Central location. Walking distance to a CVS, City Target, and the metro T line. Plus, multiple food options within walking distance.

Disliked:Parking not being included in the cost and if it’s a Friday night or weekend, you might hear some noise from the Irish pub across from the street.
