Four Points by Sheraton Boston Newton
Great travel deal, 24/7 gym, fairly warm pool, good breakfast at about half the price of places down the road. There is some traffic noise but it is constant, like white noise, and we never heard doors or elevators, so we slept well. Plenty of parking at the adjacent parking garage

Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites Boston - Peabody by IHG
For being outside of the city of Boston, this was a good location. I would stay again if necessary. Not convenient if driving a non Tesla electric car.
