Umm...okay. I lived in Boston for years so I am intimately familiar with the location. It's been previously mentioned that the properties are very close to one another. So, to say one is "much" closer to anything is probably a stretch.
In the dead of winter, I guess I would prefer to be three blocks closer to where I was going...but, location should NOT be a differentiating factor when deciding between these two hotels.
If you are Platinum, I think you would get a better overall experience at the Sheraton for the reasons I list. YMMV.
