"Boston Marriott Newton was my high school summer job many years ago. In between that and 2o years, I have recommended the hotel because of my experience there and because I'm a local. Last weekend I stayed at the hotel and everything was wonderful. The bed, climate control, comfort, quiet, etc. But this review drops big time because they apparently charge for WiFi. Most third world countries give out free WiFi and in 2026 in America we are now doing that to people? Or force them to submit their data by opening a Marriott account to get 'free' WiFi? Just so Marriott can sell our data to brokers and expose us to the world? Damn, how much things have changed. This is corruption at the highest level. I could easily give you a 1 star but I'm gonna keep it light. "
