This hotel is in a relatively "new" section of Boston so the buildings are spaced apart with more greenery than you would expect for Boston. The drawback/advantage (depending on your point of view) is it's somewhat isolated from the other neighborhoods of Boston. We were attending an event at the World Trade Center and there aren't many choices for rooms in this area. We took advantage of a special promotion Renaissance was offering ($50 voucher for future visits and a free companion flight certificate). Getting to the hotel was a challenge as you have to through an extended tunnel to get there and your GPS will be clueless to help. (HINT: Print out directions to the hotel before you leave and give them to your trusty navigator.) We arrived just before 5PM and the desk clerk informed us our room wasn't ready. We had dinner reservations for 5PM so this was a problem. After playing with her computer for what seemed an eternity, we were given our room keys. The lobby has a distinctly modern theme which didn't appeal to us but then it's just our opinion. The room was bright, clean and spacious. We contacted the concierge for local churches offering Sunday services and were given the wrong times. So service is not this hotel's strong suit. Overall we enjoyed our stay at this hotel and would probably stay again.
