8/10 Good
"The bones of this hotel are a lovely midcentury design. There was a missed opportunity to add charm when it was updated. It’s a sad, corporate gray remodel and the AI art is charmless. It’s also a bit of a turn off that they ask you to tip the cleaning staff—I hope they are paid adequately. I will say everyone we interacted was super accommodating and proactive. The location to museums and transit was also very good."

10/10 Excellent
"We had a great stay here. Very central to downtown Boston, with a subway right outside (did not hear it when in hotel). We were in the cabin with no window which I thought may of been an issue but actually was quite good. The room was huge, clean and very comfy beds. The staff were friendly and hotel clean. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it anyone."

"I was disappointed there was no one to help me lift my baggage from the sidewalk into the hotel up three steps. The sidewalk is on a slope and my bags are on wheels. I was worried they would roll away. Also, I was disappointed in the bar/restaurant offering; my first night I was informed that they did not serve breakfast and so did not try to eat in there until my last night which was pleasant but a very limited menu."
