In Oct. , Boston in the downtown area accomodations are at a premium. We did not want to stay outside of downtown and wanted to be close to attractions and areas of downtown. This inn is GREAT for...

We stayed 9/6-9/10/07. Had a great, clean room, friendly front desk service. We forgot about the offered breakfast, so don't know how that is. The room was a bit noisy from the fitness center across...

I kind of have two reviews of the Shawmut, because I stayed here once for a romantic stay with my then-boyfriend in November of 2003, and my friends ended up staying there in August 2005 to attend my...
