I REALLY like this Ren @ Patriot... Coming from the Marriott Newton and the Courtyard Norwood, it would be tough NOT to be better but this place is MUCH MUCH better. Lot's around (at Patriot Place) including staples, retail shops, bar louie, red robin, etc. Nice bar in the lobby. Haven't tried the food yet but I will. Very nice, new rooms including a nice bathroom and comfortable beds.... If you have any specific questions feel free to ask.

I have found the new place I'll be staying.

By the way MemphisQueen, "I'm at Longwharf this week and next since it's nice out and that's a great walkable area." ..... It's AWFUL out. Raining non stop!

I do highly recommend this hotel. Compared to the Marriott Newton and Courtyard Norwood this is a RC

EDIT: The Lounge is pretty pathetic though. Don't know about breakfast yet but the rest was really disappointing
