Now, my go-to Hotel in Boston

All staffs are super friendly and helpful. In overall, it’s very welcoming, boutiquey and in a nice neighborhood and T station is right front of the hotel. Our flight was late in the afternoon and they let us do a late check-out. Not sure how good the hotel would be if you are looking for a business trip and prefer to have a separate working area besides your room. However, they have a lounge setting lobby area that you can hangout. I will definitely recommend the hotel and will come back to stay in my next trips.

Classy comfortable cozy stay

Great stay at this lovely property. Everything was immaculate from the check-in area to the room. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom clean and the room relatively quiet. Great location at one end of Beacon Hill with shopping and restaurants. The T red line right outside the door. Highly recommended.

I like the minimalist decor and the comfort of the hotel. There was nothing I did not like, other than being told that I should not use Expedia but make reservations directly with the hotel and that despite my Expedia reservation, I would be given a nice room.. This did not make sense to me.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Great boutique hotel; friendly staff; in an excellent location. However, inexplicably stingy regarding strange things such as no milk delivered with morning room service tea (and the tiniest tea pot ever). But, the worst, was the noise from overhead: From my room I heard heavy stomping at 2 a.m. then again from 5-6 a.m. on two out of my four nights. There was no one whom to tell: No one asked about my stay upon checkout and it’s basically (very nice) young people working the lobby. However, even given all of that, I would return as the location is perfect, and (other than the clodhoppers-in-residence) it’s an elegant, grown-up place to stay away from all of the touristy noise. But, please, please, please round out your room service a wee bit more generously (put a honey pot on the tray with the fruit and granola!)

This is a great spot if you are in Boston because it is close to everywhere, there is a restaurant downstairs, and the staff is professional. It is pricey but you get you pay for.
