Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Perfect for solo travel for work in a "pod" or "capsule" like room. The amenities were clean and modern, featuring an automatic sitting up bed, lights, fan and privacy curtain in each pod. There was ample storage beneath the bed with a rolling tray that was as big as the bed itself. Be sure to ask front desk for a lock to secure your belongings. Public restrooms/showers were clean and modern, and the public kitchen/gathering location on the 7th floor was a nice plus. Location was fantastic as TD Garden and T Line (Green) is right across the street, with shops like CVS, 7-Eleven, and Star Market within 1 block. Overall highly recommended for solo traveling professionals looking for affordable, yet modern accommodation.

Didn't know what to expect but I was getting in late and had to leave early so I couldn't see spending hundreds on hotel. What a pleasant experience, it was clean, quiet, and I felt very safe. Every sleeping pod has a convenient outlet with additional USB port, and the bed has power incline! It was WAY better than expected!

I was not sure what to expect, but if you just need an affordable place to sleep, this is a great option. It was clean and conveniently located right by North Station, and for the most part others in my room were respectful and quiet.

Great staff. The guy at the front was great. I only needed it for some shut eye because I had a major issue with an Airbnb prior to booking. It was a same booking and great for catching some shut eye quickly. He turned my crappy day around with his hospitality and niceness
