Reviews and Ratings
I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The location is perfect, close to the subway and surrounded by great eateries. The rooms were clean and cozy, and the staff was incredibly helpful. However, the dining options were a bit lacking. Overall, a great value for the money.
The hotel is lovely and cozy, offering clean rooms with a homely feel. The service is impeccable, but the dining options are somewhat limited. A charming location close to public transport and nestled in a proper Boston neighborhood makes it a delightful stay.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel with a few highlights and some minor drawbacks. The location was convenient in a lively neighborhood and the rooms were clean and comfortable, but the dining options were limited. The service was good overall and the facilities were well-maintained. The value for money was fair considering the amenities provided.
