Hotel was fine. No staff around to help you check in and out. Rooms are very minimalist, except that they all include a creepy stuffed doll on the bed.

Good location, about 5 minutes from Hynes Convention Center and with a train station right in front of it. Good concept with just the basics in a very funcional room, and way cheaper than the local options.

We had a great stay at citizen M. Friendly staff, easy self check in and check out process. Julian from the lobby bar was very nice and gave us recommendations for things to do around the area. The hotel is centrally located and walking distance to back bay’s newbury street, shops and restaurants. It rained during our stay so we really appreciated that the hotel provided us with free umbrellas for rent. Definitely recommended!
