Courtyard by Marriott Boston-Cambridge

Courtyard by Marriott Boston-Cambridge

6/10 Okay
"The room (1613) had a nice view, however the air conditioning machine was not working properly. Maintenance came but it was still not ok. We didn't spend too much time inside the room, and we were able to open the window partially so it was bearable. The hotel is nice. Unfortunately, our experience with the restaurant inside the hotel was not the best."
