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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

The noise was unbelievable. Doors slamming all throughout the night and the walls are paper thin. The room itself doesn't look like it was put together very well. The bathroom counter top is barely holding on and wiggles when used. You can see where whoever painted the room did a horrible job and there's paint strewn across other areas. The bathroom tiles look like a toddler put them together and the sealant around the tub is a complete mess. This hotel should take pride in their establishment, but clearly does not.

Beautiful rooms with sophisticated furnishings, and thoughtful amenities. Staff is very helpful and professional. The food in the only restaurant onsite was marvelous. The restaurant was also very attractive and had a beautiful bar. On a different note, be mindful that the Car Valet service provided by the hotel ends at 11pm, so if you need your car late at night you will not be able to retrieve it and conversely, there will be no one to park it in a secure location overnight. I was told I could leave my car in the valet area, but that resulted in my car being “keyed” overnight, and am still waiting for LAZ Parking to answer my emails. There is a three block stretch just south of the hotel which can be a little dicey at night, but is very friendly by day. There are several universities in the surrounding areas. All in all I would recommend this hotel for its attractiveness, cleanliness and staff professionalism.

We LOVED Hotel AKA Boston Common! We've never had finer customer service, and we travel fairly often. We were there for our 10 year anniversary and Calvin Cherry, the Assistant Front Office Manager, made our stay so special! He gave us champagne to celebrate and asked after us every day when we would come down to explore the city. He gave excellent recommendations for restaurants around the city as well. The room was clean and the maid service was top notch! Thank you, Hotel AKA, for a wonderful first trip to Boston!

Great location! Near Boston Common and only a couple of blocks from Fanieul Hall and the Waterfront. The room was modern, spacious and comfortable. We utilized the restaurant for breakfast- food was delicious and our server was friendly and helpful. Don’t let some construction near the elevator on the first floor put you off- this was an excellent place to stay! We will come back when in Boston!
