    I booked the Boston Park Plaza, as well. Mostly because its slim pickins at this point. Looks a little run down from the reviews on Trip Advisor, but I only plan on sleeping there.

    Same here. Just a place to rest my head. Easy T ride or nice walk to Fenway

    Sounds like there will be a few of us at the hotel...

    Anyone who thinks this place is run down is either ridiculously wealthy or absurdly high maintenance. Trust me, IT IS NOT. POTUS stayed there last time he was in town.

    I think that impression is coming from a few questionable photos posted on TripAdvisor.

    I booked the Courtyard about $350 but using points. Seems like 30 min train ride.

    How late do trains run in Boston?

    I know Wrigley 13 ended way later than expected but never want to relive that train ride again.

    Agreed. I've never heard of anyone ever say the Park Plaza is rundown.

    Boston trains stop at 1 still I believe. You can literally walk across the city in an hour so I wouldn't worry.

    I've found a good refundable rate at Hotel 140 in Back Bay on booking.com. Reviews on tripadvisor are good, and it's less than a 30 minutes walk from Fenway.

    I booked a suite at the Copley House, only because it has free cancellation. If something pops up on airbnb I'll probably cancel but so far nothing cheap enough.

    Copley House was $230 a night for a suite. Any input on this place? Reviews seem pretty good.

    I thought Philly was bad for hotel prices, but wow. We really wanted a hotel or air bnb, but both options are looking too expensive. Luckily I have a friend in Brookline who has some space for us. Will be keeping an eye out though, hopefully something good on air bnb will open up.

    I got the inn at longwood medical, nice quick walk to fenway, hotel looked pretty decent too.
    Wouldn't it be funny if the world ended in 2010, with lots of fire?
