Bedford Plaza Hotel - Boston
My third stay as I have to be here in Boston so regularly. Not quite as well equipped as the Avia, but much closer and easier to get downtown Boston. Again, a bit older hotel, but well kept and clean. I will be staying there again, probably several times as I conduct business in Boston.
