-Communication prior to the stay -i got the door codes on time

-way to expensive for this room size -feels like a prison, absolute no space -consfused about checkout time (cleaning service wanted to clean when I was still checked-in. Probably no communication between management and employees. Also they conformed late check out first and reminded me after to check out early -AC didn't work; worker entered the room without permission (I got notified via booking.com) -no storage for luggage -no shower room at the same level. I had to go downstairs everytime. One shower room is shared with up to 7 other rooms. -no possibility to wash the hands at the toilet on 4th floor -bed matress seems to be quite old -bad smell when I entered the room (almost like wet dog). They didn't really follow up on that after I reported on that -fotos use an fish eye angle to pretend the rooms where bigger and nicer. Pictures are not accurate.

The room was modern and clean. The room was as advertised, and the bathrooms were acceptably clean. My room was furnished with a microwave, toaster, coffee brewer, and fridge, allowing me to make a simple breakfast. It's a good place to stay if you need a private place close to the city without breaking the bank. The host was easy to reach by text messaging, and was very kind and helpful.

As many have said before, this place is pretty loud even at night. My room faced the highway and rail corridor, and the window had poor sound insulation. Also, this place didn't have a front desk or lobby, which confused me and didn't allow me to keep my suitcase at the place on day of check-out.

The location is great! Walking distance from Back Bay. Good restaurants and shops in the area. Fairly safe and comfortable area to walk around. Bed was nice and comfy. Good temperature and air con. I appreciated the clear abd consistent communication regarding my booking.

Honestly it was quite run down. Not as clean and fresh as it looks in the pictures. Staircase was slanted and felt a little unstable. Wall paper and paint was peeling everywhere. Mould build up in bathroom. Rust and stains on walls and in corners of the room. Carpet was dirty.

Sheets were filthy, found black hair all over (& we both have blond hair) place needs a a complete remodel, mattress uncomfortable , not much I can say that would make me go back or recommend.

The room is clean and location is great, near downtown.

Not so clean and the restroom is shared with many people at least 4.

My rooms breaker often tripped.

Super easy to check in/out with text message and a pin to the door. I think my main plus is that you are in a great location - walking distance to the park and back bay station. It was quite clean, but could use some fresh paint in the bathroom and rooms. My room felt safe with two door locks - included a tiny fridge, microwave, towels, bedlinens, TV, WiFi. The floor I was on shared a bathroom with four other rooms/units.

It could use a touch up to just freshen up the rooms. Also, if you don't mind noise, you'll be fine. I could hear the doors closing/opening but also when people would walk up the stairs. Also, Friday night was more noisy as well. For the price you pay though and the old building - I think it evens out. No elevator in my building, so if you are on the top floor be prepared to get some exercise walking up with your suitcase.
