Frommer's Review
A large room with a clear view from every seat, the oldest original comedy club in town (established in 1978) draws top-notch talent from near and far. Opening acts are usually local and hilarious; national headliners you'll recognize from late-night TV break loose from the censors and draw enthusiastic crowds. There's one show a night Sunday through Thursday, two shows Friday and Saturday (times vary, so call ahead for specifics). The cover charge seldom tops $20 during the week but jumps for big names appearing on weekends. This just in: Check ahead -- by the time you read this, the Comedy Connection may be at the historic Wilbur Theatre, 246 Tremont St., in the Theater District.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
