A lovely stay for the holidays. The front desk (Calvin and team) were so kind and welcoming. They even gave our two-year old a beautiful stuffed animal gift. Thank you for giving us a home away from home, and I would highly recommend staying here.

Toilet kept running. Stains on the bathroom tile in and near shower. Coat hook hanging off wall. Side mirror loose. Back of bathroom door not clean and around the toilet paper dispenser has dirty fingerprints. Sink and mirror clean. Bed was comfy. I thought i read online they didn't do housekeeping unless requested i woke up and let my dog out tall quick and came back to extra towels( we had two on check in) Toilet Paper( we had one roll upon check in) they made our bed. Sounds good but wasn't expecting someone to go in our room in the 30 mins i ran out. We only stayed for two night. On the morning of check in housekeeping was knocking on door at 8am.

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.

This hotel is in a great location, just steps from the Common, Beacon Hill, close to the north end, etc. My only complaint is that the rooms are so dark…dark grey walls, and not nearly enough lighting fixtures to illuminate the room. I know you are likely going for a moody vibe, but I can’t see myself in the mirror!
