Embassy suites Boston Airport - what's the area like?
Am looking for somewhere to stay with the wife & kids in the summer so we can see a bit of Boston. Hotel prices are eye wateringly expensive (especially since there's 5 of us), but I can get the ES at the airport on points.
A browse on google maps shows the surrounding area as non-descript. It looks fine, but I've read some negative points about "East Boston".
The hotel will just be somewhere to sleep. Happy to Uber into the city (it's a weekend stay) and the "zero" hotel cost will mitigate the expense here.
Am I missing anything? Any better ideas as to where I can stay without dropping $500/nt?
Many thanks
