Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport
The hotel was beautiful. My only issue was the electricity went out in my room twice and I had to pack up my things in the dark to move to a new room. But the hotel gave me a better room after with no issues.

citizenM Boston North Station
Location is great but no parking. Staff were very helpful. Very clean. Rooms are tiny. You have to get washcloths in the lobby. They have a bunch of personal items available if you forget, razors, comb etc.
