The Northshore Hotel - Boston/Danvers

10/10 Excellent
"Very nice hotel! I loved it! It was a bit far from downtown Salem which made the ubers a little more expensive but I loved staying here! Super nice and clean facility. Peace and quiet. Super spacious rooms! My sister and I booked a room with 2 twin beds and it was more than enough room! The room also had a fridge which was very convenient. Would definitely stay again given the chance!"
