The Kendall Hotel at the Engine 7 Firehouse
The room was clean, spacious, and comfortable. I also have never been at a hotel that had an emergency flashlight in closet. The bed and the pillows were comfortable. The breakfast was great. The train station was 5 ft from the door. Really enjoyed our stay here. Would come back to them again.
