   "SO CLOSE FOR FAR LESS"
  Overall Score4.5/ 5 
     I recently visited the Courtyard by Marriott in Brookline Ma and was very impressed. A boutique property so close to Boston, you need to consider this hotel when you are in the area. They have a convenient Bistro featuring Starbucks coffee in the lobby and great restaurants just steps from their door. The rooms are very nice and the hotel is very clean, but all the employees emphasize the importance of friendly service since there are many options for the travelers coming to this area. For the business person that needs to be in Boston, the MBTA green line is directly across the street that can get you into Boston in minutes. Close to Cambridge, there are many colleges and historical areas this make this the perfect hotel for a getaway weekend. The convenience of staying in the hub of activity is important, but more importantly the cost of staying in Brookline is more cost effective than staying in Boston proper. Being able to enjoy such a quality property only minutes from Boston makes this property the perfect option on your next trip to the New England area.

     "It was clean, comfortable" 
  Overall Score4.0/ 5 
     All of your employees were very helpful and kind. I especially want to recognize Sahara, who was working the overnight shift. She was incredibly supportive. My sister was a patient at Dana-Farber Hospital, and when we returned to the hotel in the middle of the night after my sister passed away, it was Sahara who helped us. She was extremely sweet, compassionate, and helpful during an incredibly difficult time.

     "Convenient hotel in Brookline." 
  Overall Score4.0/ 5 
     They try hard and are very nice. The place is a bit tired and the housekeeping could be better. Amenities are slim—no robes, one tiny bar of soap. No magnifying mirror in the bathroom. They recently got new towels finally. If you want to be in Brookline, this is the best hotel there. The lobby cafe is a great addition for good coffee and snacks and there is a small indoor pool!
