Good WiFi, good climate control in the room, no complaints there. And the location is a plus, you're a 7-10 minute walk to the MBTA (Central Station), and you can easily get over the bridge to Back Bay if you're up for a longer walk. The bathroom in my room was a little outdated relative to the rest of the furniture. Especially the shower, it felt like it was a decade older than everything else, and while that didn't affect water pressure, it was still a bit offputting. The fitness center is a TINY room at the end of the hall on the fourth floor, I strongly suspect it's a converted guest room, and the small square footage will make you think the same. It has a few cardio machines and some dumbbells, along with one cable exercise rack, but there's not much space for more than maybe eight people at a time. Still, this is a great property to consider, especially if you can book at a time when rates are lower than the other expensive hotels in Boston. I've found this Le Meridien can sometimes be $100 per night less than surrounding hotels, which makes it a steal for the quality you get.

This location was more reasonable compared to others as hotels are very expensive in boston area. We spent most of the day in boston and came in for check in around 9-10pm. Parking situation is tricky the hotel has parking but is pretty expensive. We just found street parking that was 8am-8pm for over night parking and made sure to put money in the meter in the morning through the app The staff were nice and explained hotel amenities well. I guess they take $25 resort fee due to being partnered with Marriott or something which is kind of absurd. They compensated with $12.5 voucher that we can use at their dining/bar. They do take your credit card info for any damages during the stay. They gave us the key card and we used the elevator to get to our room. Our room was on the 5th floor and was relatively nice with standard accommodations. Everything seemed to be clean and refilled. They have refillable glass bottle you can take to get some water and ice. There was some water already on it so we had to wash them just to make sure they are not dirty. We went around the corner from our room to get some water. There were huge ice machine and filtered water machine similar to what you see in gym. Ice machine seemed to be broken and no ice seemed to come out. Water machine was ok. AC seemed to be working well and kept the room cool but was making sounds time to time every time it came on during the night. I did check out the gym as well on the 4th floor. Gym was small but had some cycling machine, treadmills, weights and chairs, ...etc. small but everything worked fine. There were some towels and cups and water as well. I ended up using the voucher at the bar for 2 bottled water and a chocolate croissant which was $15 so i only had to pay $2.5 which was nice but 2 bottle of water for 10 is expensive. Chocolate Croissant and water was ok nothing special. We checked out at 12pm and spend more time in boston. Overall the experience was ok standard hotel with good accommodation. Price is ok for boston area, down side is resort fee, parking, and malfunctioning ice machine.
