My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room was oddly shaped, making it a bit of a challenge to navigate, but it was clean, spacious, and nicely decorated. The service was a bit hit or miss - some staff members were extremely kind and helpful, while others lacked friendliness. The location was fantastic for exploring the city on foot or using public transportation. The dining options were simple but satisfying. Overall, the facilities were good, but there were a few quirks that stood out.

The hotel was a delightful surprise with its huge bathrooms despite small rooms. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly, going out of their way to assist. The location was excellent, close to the subway and surrounded by great dining and shopping options. The dining experience was great, especially the unexpected comforts in the room, though the absence of a coffee-maker was a miss.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were spotless with fresh white linen and a cozy bed, but having just twin beds was surprising considering the price. The service was top-notch, very friendly and accommodating. The location was superb, close to various attractions and dining options. However, the dining options were a letdown with mostly sugary treats available.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the location was superb in the heart of Boston downtown, the room was quite small and lacked some basic amenities. The service from the staff was friendly and helpful, especially the housekeeping team. However, the dining options were subpar, and the breakfast left much to be desired.

My stay at the hotel was pretty good overall. The location was ideal for walking to most places I wanted to visit, and there were plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. However, the service could have been more attentive and friendly compared to my experiences elsewhere. The dining options were simple but satisfying, though having no breakfast service was a bit of a letdown. The rooms were convenient as my office was just outside the hotel, but they were small and lacked a table for work or dining. The pricing, including parking, was on the higher side.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were small but adequate for a city break, and while lacking some amenities like a table, they were quite comfortable with useful appliances like a fridge and microwave. The views were limited, one window faced a wall, and the other overlooked a roof and a wall. The service received was friendly and helpful, although there were issues with parking fee explanations. The location was superb, making it easy to access various attractions in Boston. The dining options were limited, but the breakfast offering included standard items. Overall, the hotel provided a decent value for the money.
