Aurora Concert at MGM Fenway
Our stay was pleasant enough. There were some rules we weren't crazy about, but suspect they are just about insurance liability, and not made from a hospitality standpoint, but one of them was "No food in the pool area." We stayed here for its location related to a show at the MGM Fenway Musical Hall. It was a very short and easy-to-navigate walk away from the venue. It felt safe walking to and from the venue. Very well-lit even late at night. Breakfast was reasonably, good, but not as many Gluten-free options for my partner, but otherwise a nice-yet-typical continental breakfast. The eggs tasted "real" rather than powdered eggs that lots of hotels use these days, but I am unsure if that is true. The people at the front desk said "We upgraded you to a suite" but I'm pretty sure that is what I booked. We did like that there was privacy and a door between the two rooms. The pull-out bed was comfortable enough for my kiddo, but I suspect an adult would be uncomfortable on it (we tried it out). This hotel had some modern vibes, and it could be interesting to see a murphy bed in there, instead of a sofa bed. Would certainly be a more comfortable option for an adult.

Tv didn’t work, first thing in the morning, the Kurig coffee maker made Cold coffee. We ordered food for delivery, front desk couldn’t be bothered to call us when it arrived, despite zero costumer and the number on the items. Also no designated handicap spot in front for drop off

Comfortable for a great Boston visit
Our room was immaculate and nicely appointed. Comfortable bed and sitting area. Kitchenette with full sized fridge. Staff were friendly and professional. While it is obviously perfect for visiting Fenway, the location is also pretty convenient for visiting downtown and universities such as Northeastern and NECM as well as nearby museums. We visited in late November outside of high season.

The Residence Inn is conveniently located, just a 5-7 minute walk from Kenmore Station. The room included a kitchenette, which was a nice feature. The breakfast was good, offering a variety of options, and the staff was friendly and accommodating. However, there are a few things to consider before staying here. The room size was adequate if you don’t plan to use the sofa bed, but with the sofa bed open, the space felt cramped. Additionally, the sofa bed was too soft, noisy, and not comfortable for sleeping. The bathroom lacked storage space, such as racks or shelves, for clothes or personal items like a phone, which was inconvenient. I also had an issue with the USB charger in the room—after charging my phone overnight, it wouldn’t turn on the next day. There is construction outside the hotel, which wasn’t noisy during our stay, but the sidewalk was closed. There was no pedestrian crossing directly in front of the hotel, requiring guests to walk in the opposite direction to find a crosswalk before heading toward Kenmore Station. This might be inconvenient for some travelers. Overall, the hotel offers a convenient location and decent amenities, but there are some areas that could use improvement to enhance the guest experience.
