Close to TD Garden!!!!!
At first arrival our room wasn't ready and we waited 45 minutes. The manager agreed to take 20% off our bill at checkout. Because the reservation was online and prepaid it took several weeks upon return home to get my refund, although I did eventually get it. Can't beat the location if you're going to Boston for an event at the Garden!

The staff really make this hotel what it is
If the staff didn't try as hard as they do this hotel would be pretty bad, but they are great. The room was "cozy" or small if you would, but you can over look things when almost every review says "small rooms" you kind of know what you're getting into. The restaurant was closed due to renovations which I never received a notice of but you are a stones throw from like 15 other food joints. Only one elevator, but multiple stairwells so if you don't mind walking it's fine, and the elevator was pretty quick after you get in it.

Great stay
After reading some reviews on this hotel I was a little skeptical, but new it had been undergoing renovations. The locations was perfect, Walking distance to the freedom trail, restaurants, and shops. Our room was comfortable, clean,and the bed was great. The staff couldn't have been more courteous. The renovation was just being completed with the bar opening the day we arrived. Just a wonderful experience.

All Things Considered
They are in the midst of a huge renovation. Fortunately, we were placed in nice room. Newly renovated, expect the furnishings. Curtains were made out of paper. No room darkening. One elevator was inconvenient with all construction materials moving up and down same space. No luxuries, no common areas. Restuarant was also closed. Cant beat the location when wanting to be near train and downtown.
