Each suite consists of 4 single-occupancy rooms, 2 shared bathrooms, a full kitchen, and common room.

Off-campus options:

As Boston can be a costly city to visit in the summer, we recommend browsing both hotel websites and discount search engines, which often include flash hotel discounts.

Hotels.com, Booking.com, and Expedia.com list hotel sales. Creating an account with these sites will typically include further savings.

Airbnb.com and VRBO.com list private room and apartment rentals.
