We stayed in a double queen room—it was surprisingly spacious, much bigger than similar rooms you'd find downtown. Check-in was smooth, and the staff was super friendly, giving us lots of great tips.
The location is great, especially if you like running or walking—it's right next to Alewife Reservation. We drove into Boston, and the $30/day parking fee here was definitely more affordable than most places. It's only about a 10-minute walk to the Red Line, which was totally doable.
