No room available.

The room was not available upon my arrival. They were fully booked and there was no room for me in spite of the reservation being fully paid in advance. Staff was initially not helpful, but after discussing the situation, they understood they were at fault and offered a refund and apologized I've found difficult to find where to ask for the refund from Expedia in the App.

This is a great hotel led by exceptional staff. I had mentioned I chose the hotel off of a Tik Tok reviewers recommendation and ithe staff and hotel did not disappoint. They upgraded my room to the 18th floor which had an awesome view of the city. Easy walk to Quincy Market and Boston Commons not to mention Newberry Street, Boylston St and Beacon St for more shopping. Highly recommend

Really nice clean and quiet modern room and bathroom, very comfortable bed. Excellent location steps from Boston commons, right on the freedom trail, just cross the street and follow the red brick path. Convenient valet parking. One complaint is that parking was included with my package but the hotel charged for it anyways. They did promptly remove the charge when I pointed it out to them. Also there was some small extra standard charge of $30, not sure exactly for what but didn’t want to argue. Will stay again.

We rented the presidential suite and 2 additional queen rooms for our July 4 stay. The rooms were good, except the presidential suite smelled like a cigar lounge and had some suspect white powder all over the glass coffee table. Upon departure, I reviewed my charges and discovered they charged me $250 for smoking, even though the smoke was there when I arrived. Furthermore, there was an array of unexplained charges and some credits on my card, the end result of which they overcharged me $535. Despite numerous emails to the front desk staff at the hotel trying to resolve the problem, and promises from them that it would be corrected, it's now 5 weeks since I have checked out and they have not returned my money or explained the overcharges. Good luck if you plan to stay with AKA.
