If you are looking for a cheap hotel east side of Boston try the Rodeway. there is a free pick up/drop off bus, we were picked up from the airport and taken to the hotel, then taken to a local restaurant , then dropped off and picked up at the beach and that was all on our first day! On the second day we were taken to the train station then later picked up and taken back to hotel. On the 3rd day we were taken to the cruise port to embark our ship at a cost of only 10$ each. There is free internet and also free tea & coffee at reception. The staff were helpful. Not a lot to do in the area besides the beach but the train takes you into downtown Boston and there is plenty to do there. Entrance to hotel a bit shabby and rooms at the front of the hotel can be a bit noisy from the traffic, the rooms were a good size and clean, ours had a microwave & fridge/freezer. If you are looking for a cheap place to stay and don’t mind travelling into town by train, check this hotel out.
