This is one of the closest hotels: a short walk from Loyal Nine and mere blocks to Lechmere, the Green Line subway stop. Plus, it's recent construction, which is always nice. Nicer yet? Next door to the hotel is a five-story antique market, one of Beth's favorite spots to treasure hunt. No special wedding rate for the Fairfield. The normal rate range is $180-200/night.
