Gave me the run around about fixing internet, otherwise great

The hotel is kinda in the middle of nowhere, but the free shuttle service makes it much more convenient. For the price, in Boston, there's no way you can get a better room. It's a full suite, separate living room and bedroom. The biggest problem I had was that the internet was consistently unusably slow when I was there. I complained multiple times. They kept giving me excuses. Eventually I called up the 1800 number and the management addressed it. By the time I finished my 10-day stay they got the internet fixed.

Great Hockey Expereince

Went with my nephew for college hockey recruiting trips to BC & BU..Hotel was central location to everything, $10 cab ride to TD bank North and $20 to BC which are at both ends of the city. This is a great hotel if you plan on being there just to go to sleep, no pool, hot tub or things to do beside watch TV. Free hot breakfast was horrible but coffee, fruit and pastries were good. Overall, great place to stay for the price.

The location is close to down town and near dinning places. The Breakfast and afternoon cookies were great.

Great stay!

We enjoyed everything about our stay at the Best Western Roundhouse. Having never been in Boston, we were looking for a place that had shuttle service to the airport and downtown, with breakfast, a microwave, and a refrig-at a good price. The Roundhouse fulfilled all of our wants. The room was very clean and comfortable with plenty of space and was cleaned every day, the breakfast was great, and the hotel staff and drivers were friendly and very helpful in assisting with planning our days, using the subways, and providing transportation. They were also willing to store our baggage after checkout so we could have another morning to explore Boston. We will certainly stay there again if we get back to Boston in the future!

Family stay

I stayed at this hotel with my 17 yo son. The room was fine, but the location was not, near truck deposits and two gas stations, just out of downtown Boston. Breakfast was free, so the parking, but the variety of the first and the size of the second were not sufficient (only the basics, and only 8 slots for cars. Carpets were worn and the whole building needs some maintenance. Staff on average.

Good value for the price

I was in town for a conference and had also stayed here before. The hotel was clean and had the amenities I was looking for - free breakfast and internet, and a shuttle that got me to and from ptehr parts of town. This property is sutiable for all types of travelers and offered a good value for the money. The one downside was that I had a broken alarm clock in my room, brought it to the front desk, and they did not replace or fix it.
