The hotel provides convenient parking, though it requires a fee and the Wi-Fi service has mixed reviews due to additional charges unless guests enroll in the Bonvoy program. Beds are consistently praised for their comfort, enhancing the overall stay experience.
While the Boston Marriott Newton is generally viewed as a good option for travelers looking for an affordable stay in the greater Boston area, some guests feel that it needs updates, particularly to the decor and that the value for the price could be improved.
