I've never stayed at XV Beacon, but the location is great for a base; you can easily walk to/from any of the four subway lines (even with Government Center closed), and many attractions are nearby as well.
Like other respondents, I'd recommend taking the Silver Line in from the airport as long as you don't have a huge amount of luggage to haul.
Enjoy Boston!
