Ramada by Wyndham Boston
room reaked of cigarettes, bed was stained with makeup and who knows what else, was so dirty and gross that we left and never even stayed one out of our 2 nights that we paid for

Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport
Excellent, but you do pay for two nights in the parking lot if you're there for more than 24 hours, as you surely need to be for a volleyball tournament.
