Room was very clean. Shower was hot and had great water pressure. The area is close to public transportation and within walking distance of Boston Common, visitors center, and Freedom Trail. And the drinks at the bar were great! We would stay here again!

The location is convenient, the free snacks in the room is a nice touch, the beds were comfortable and the linens were luxurious. Nice sized room. I like that they had a water refill station on our floor that had flavored options, and you could choose between still and sparkling. Very eco-friendly. I would definitely stay here again.

The doorman were excellent! They made the stay pleasant . Very helpful with directions and advice! Prefer you have had a coffee shop that stayed open at least til 8 pm for when you arrive back for the night. The rooms were very comfortable - the shower could have used some-kind of additional “shelf” inside for toiletries and a towel Overall great experience ! Good location too !

Everything was great. My husband and I would love to have a better lit room. The lighting was adequate but still was a very dimly lit room for us. No other comments.

Having arrived early, we were very happy to be able to get into our rooms right away. Wendy checked us in…five people, three rooms, and all were clean and comfortable. Wendy was very friendly and helpful and also provided suggestions for restaurants in the area. All the staff were super friendly and helpful. The coffee shop and bar in the lobby were welcome assets.
