Hidden fees not disclosed at booking and misleading info from staff about some fees. I will not stay there again

Good breakfast. Good location.

The hotel actually exceeded my expectations; it was super clean and the room was spacious. They were able to meet all my requests, and they did so always in a friendly manner. Area around there was great as well- very close to public transport & the city, but has some cute cafes & restaurants within a short walk too.

Perfect for business travellers being located near Kendall subway station and near the major pharmaceutical, nonprofits and universities. Property is under renovation on several floors so expect lots of dust, and some noise. Overall, staff is nice and the place is 4 star

Very good staff. Good Breakfast.

The location was great, property is dated and the food is awful

The listing was very accurate. The amenities were more than enough for an amazing and relaxing vacation.

Love that it was pretty central to everything we wanted to see. Fenway , Paul Revere house, MIT, Harvard university

Very conveniently located and may be bit old, but clean enough. They could manage breakfast thing but better

Well maintained. Close proximity to MIT and RedLine Good breakfast

Will be back again. The staff was helpful and very friendly.

Great service, perfect location for MIT visitors, kind service and staff

Expected everything except an expensive parking fee.

My son and I arrived at this hotel at 2:30 AM in the morning, after a 7 hour flight delay. We were sooooooooo tired, and ready to hit the hay. The staff here was very welcoming as I asked them a few questions about directions to our destination the next day, and they relayed the fact that they would have breakfast out at 7 AM. The room itself was very nice! It was a suite, so it was larger than other hotel rooms we'd stayed in before. It had a full kitchen, with a full size frig, sink, stove,cabinets, plates, flatware, etc. If we had been able to stay longer, I would have liked to have prepared some meals there for ourselves. The location was PERFECT for our visit to MIT, restaurants, shopping, etc. Everything we needed was within walking distance. Would definitely stay here again!

Great place for a weekend getaway or business. We combined a family trip with a business one and it was great for both. Close to public transport and fun neighborhoods. Quick T to Harvard Square and Park St. Close to the Longfellow, with easy access to the running trails along the Esplinade.

Chrisanthi, Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a raving review. I couldn't agree with you more about the local area, and also our team. We hope your travels bring you back to Boston in the near future.
