My stay at the hotel was quite mixed. The rooms were beautifully decorated and surprisingly spacious, but lacked some essential amenities like a mini fridge or microwave, and I found some items left behind by previous guests. The hotel had no pool or included breakfast, which was disappointing for the high price paid.

The hotel is wonderfully located right in the heart of Boston near the Common, making it easy to explore the city on foot. The rooms, though on the smaller side and a bit pricey, offer comfortable beds and great views. The service provided by the dedicated and hardworking staff was exceptional. Dining, however, fell short with overpriced and poorly cooked options. On the bright side, the hotel facilities are top-notch, delivering a delightful experience overall.

The hotel is in a prime location for exploring the city, being conveniently close to the subway station and offering easy access to various attractions. The rooms, although small and not fully spacious for the price tag, are well-appointed and come with free wifi. The service provided by the staff is exceptional, with a friendly and helpful demeanor, making the stay delightful. The dining options, albeit not exceptional and with limited choices, do not match the overall quality of the hotel. The facilities are well-maintained and functional.

The hotel's location is great, very central and within walking distance to many attractions in Boston.
