average stay with some disappointments
poor sound insulation missing refrigerator
the location was acceptable , providing easy access to nearby attractions.
my room lacked sound insulation , and i could hear street noise throughout the night. the curtains did not fully block out light , so streetlights shone into the room. i was also disappointed that there was no refrigerator.

amazing stay!
daily snacks downtown area
the staff greeted me with HUGE smiles. i really appreciated the daily snacks and the hot cocoa available in the lobby each evening. the location made it easy to walk to many interesting places in the downtown area. i will definitely stay here again!
During check-in, i received the option of a city-facing room or a 'quiet interior view'. It faced a wall maybe eight feet from our windows, with only a narrow sliver of natural light coming in. I wish i had been given a city-facing room.

I found the staff helpful and friendly. They promptly moved me to a room that better suited my needs. The location is downtown, close to big stores and Boston Common. The barman was also super friendly and polite.
