Excellent location. Staff was amazing. Rooms were spacious. There were some stains on the covers and the water was a little brown (possibly from the pipes). But I would definitely recommend this hotel.

Friendly staff and great location! The bed was very comfortable, and there were plenty of power outlets and USB and USB-C outlets for charging all your devices. Highly recommended!

Everything was absolutely great - cleanliness, friendly staff, location was perfect for our needs. The only down side was that we were awoken at 7:30am to the sound of someone grinding or sanding the exterior of the building right outside our window (on the 16th floor). It went on until we checked out at 9. Recommended that they not book rooms in that particular area until the work was completed as it was extremely loud.

Smart, hip, stylish hotel with great modern atmosphere.

Fantastic location, excellent staff that were friendly and helpful. The bed was comfortable. The room was extremely small which made it difficult for us, the other thing we weren't fond of was the furniture was not functional, no dresser, only 1 drawer in the closet, lighting was poor. Closet and shelving were painted black, with the limited lighting in the room it was hard to see.

I arrived late night but could check in smoothly while they had been troubled with room key system in that day.
The room was clean, comfortable and had good amenities.

Very friendly staff. Great location. They went above and beyond for us. We will absolutely return.
The hotel is clean, albeit the room showed a few small signs of wear and tear (completely in the realm of acceptable) such as the bathroom door handle being a bit loose/sticking and the drain plug coming completely out. The in-room snack items are a bit pricey, but that is completely standard. The Nespresso machine was free and stocked for us with fresh supplies each morning. Beds were comfortable. No complaints. I cannot overstate how friendly the staff was though. 10/10.

Great staying Boston, perfect and close to everything - 4 family members seeing the town and fit comfortably with the 2 queen beds. Calvin at the front desk was great, and provided great service and recommendations. One thing to mention is $65 overnight parking with valet but that seemed the norm everywhere . Highly recommend!

The hotel was very clean and furnished with Herman Miller furnitures.
Calvin, hotel manager, was fabulous. He welcomed us with a bottle of wine. He was attentive and greeted us daily. We went out of his way to make sure that we get to Martha’s Vineyard successfully. We have been to many places around the world, but the treatment we received was simply the best.
Thank you for your wonderful hospitality, Calvin.

Very expensive hotel. Service could have been better for that price. Rooms are good. No view from 5th floor.

Service, location and cleanliness is great. Only real down is that you can hear service trucks, housekeeping and elevators very clearly. A bit more soundproofing in doors and windows would be ideal for any future upgrade the hotel makes. Overall very good stay. Everyone very friendly.

Every member of the staff we encountered was friendly and accommodating. They went above and beyond to make sure we had a nice stay. A great central location, too.

BED. BUGS.
Photo proof provided. Medical documentation provided (after returning from the trip) Not only was a refund not provided, cleaning of luggage and clothing was not reimbursed. After contacting them multiple times we were told "no bed bugs were found". (Attempted to upload photos for review, hotels.com would not let me)

I would definitely stay again. The staff are so wonderful! They were so helpful with everything. The rooms could use a bathroom update. The beds were soooo comfortable and the pillows were perfect. It’s in such a great location and the bar on the 2nd floor has so much charm.
They are still under construction in the lobby which was unfortunate that we couldn’t spend time in there. I’m sure it will be gorgeous when it’s finished.

I would stay here again. It was a nice place. We did not feel safe every time we left the hotel at night though. They were some pretty sketchy people hanging around.
