Chose this hotel because of proximity to location in Boston....while on the 6th floor, the road noise was still enough to wake me at a way too early hour when the trucks began to roll. Also, some sort of train also runs which makes an interesting duet with the trucks. If you can request a location away from the thruway,... More

This is the perfect location for parents of college students living in the Allston/Brighton area. It is a snap getting around that area and parking allows for frequent ins and outs. Be sure to bring your noise cancelling headphones -- we had a room on the fifth floor and it sounded like the train was barreling through a few feet... More

Nice place, helpful & friendly staff, super fast wifi. Rooms were quite comfortable, we were on the 4th floor and honestly weren't bothered by the traffic on the Mass Pike (Get Up Kids fans will get the title of this review btw). The traffic noise wasn't overwhelming by any stretch. Would've rated a bit higher but for someone like me... More

The old expression "what have you done for me lately" is why hotels need to stay on their toes to keep customers coming back. The location for me is family driven. It is ten minutes from the inlaws. The hotel actually sits directly over the Mass Pike extension into Boston. The last time I was here I had a room... More

Stayed at Crowne Plaza for 5 nights in June 2012 as we were moving to Newton. Hotel is convenient for this purpose. Rooms were reasonable size and service was OK. Breakfast pretty basic unless you want to pay extra. Even though located right above Mass Pike, was not noisy, especially on higher floors.

The hotel is clean, well kept, nice, and the staff is very good. It is also very close to Newton, which is one of the best spots in Boston, and it is very convenient for transportation, because it sits right on top of the I-90 interstate. This is also the weak point of the hotel: you pay the close access... More

Two night stay for business in area. Convenient to the highway, matter of fact the hotel sits over the road. Makes for a noisy environment. Staff was very efficient, quickly fixed a light out in the bathroom. Will have to pay for parking. Decent restaurants in area too.

Excellent stay, hotel staff is always polite and helpful! Rooms are very clean and the pool is awesome! Anytime we come to Boston to visit we always stay at this hotel. We misplaced the remote and called the front desk, and we had a replacement in five minutes. Great staff-great customer service check in was an absolute breeze.

Who ever heard of building a hotel right over a major freeway? The traffic noise was ridiculous. If it was built over a shooting range, at least the noise would stop at night when the shooting range closed. Here, there was loud traffic/truck noise all night. I would have found another hotel, but I was here for only one night... More
