So I live in beacon hill and my boyfriend is coming to visit me fom NJ with his car. Any recommendations for parking that is cheap? I was considering telling him to park at a walmart or something further out then either uber or take the T in. Curious what others have done in this situation

How long will be be here? I would try spothero for short term (they do have a long term option but I've never used it so I can't comment on pricing etc).

If he's here for a weekend, the Post Office Square parking garage is $9 a day. Not incredibly close to Beacon Hill but can't beat the price

there are lots of non resident spots in allston/brighton, could park there and take the green line or commuter rail

Our friends visited over Thanksgiving and needed a place to park and we figured that the Boston Common Garage is a really good deal $14 overnight if prepaid online or $17 at the garage. This is weekend & Holiday parking rates. Not too bad for covered parking in this weather! Weekday is $32 overnight.

Alewife garage is $3/day on weekends and $9/day on weekdays, and the red line goes from there to beacon hill (charles /mgh stop) so its fairly convenient

Woodland Station on the Green Line D Branch, offers overnite parking at $7/day M-F; weekends $3/day. The parking is a multilevel structure, so one can park sheltered from the snow.

Woodland is one stop inbound from Riverside, easily reachable via Mass Pike & Rte. 128.

If it's on a weekend some of the suburbs like Charlestown have free parking on the weekends for non-residents. Then look on the phone for bus/subway connections in the area or take an Uber.

Driving from NJ to Boston to then be told to park at a walmart (Quincy, Saugus, none of them are close) and uber over is ridiculous. Just pay the garage fee, you live in Beacon Hill what did you expect.
