Average Amenities Great Location

Hotel is probably only good for two things: free on-site parking and the location in walking proximity to Little Italy. Everything else is very average or subpar. Cleanliness is okay at best, comfort is very poor. We were only given 3 pillows for a queen room, and one small throw blanket, along with no comforter on the bed, only sheets. The A/C unit works… for about 20 minutes and then shuts off randomly and had to be kicked in order to restart. One plus-side is streaming services available on the TV. Overall only stay for free, convenient parking and location.

Do not stay here. There are roaches, construction happening, the rooms are dirty, and our blowdryer caught on fire. We did not end up staying the night because of how poor the conditions were, and were denied a refund.

This is an older hotel in a busy traffic area. It is very convenient to Little Italy and offers free parking. TV is terrible with mostly old programs or repetitive news.

Bad smell of the corridors and room. A cockroach in the bathroom. Super expensive considering the conditions and the rate published doesn’t match the reality. Avoid it.

Las habitaciones están limpias, es sencillo pero confortable para pasar la noche, céntrico de los atractivos turísticos (restaurantes, bahía, museos, Mall) se debe pedir un papel de permiso para estacionamiento y afuera está algo sucio y descuidado. Lo único que deberían mejorar es en la hora de check in porque siento que es muy tarde igual el check out recorrerlo una hora más

The bed was comfortable enough, and the location is really convenient for attending conferences at the convention center. However, it’s on the approach to the airport, so the airplane noise is quite loud. The room was clean, but everything was pretty worn down. I hung a do not disturb sign on my door as I do not like cleaners coming in with my stuff around (and I am a really neat person so it’s not like waiting till the end of my 3 day stay is going to result in a huge job for the cleaners) but it was ignored, which I did not appreciate.

Location couldn't be better - right next to Little Italy so you're close to the action but far enough that it isn't loud at night. And you could walk to Seaport in 15-20 minutes, or downtown in half an hour. Also close to public transit stops. However property was old, with minor upkeep issues, though no deal breakers. Initially the shower in our room could only divert a fraction of the water from the tap to the showerhead when we pulled the knob, so the water pressure from the showerhead was inadequate. And although we asked the staff to fix it for a couple of days in a row, they either never tried or were unable to fix it. However they did easily agree to move us into another room when we brought up on day 3 that it still wasn't fixed. The second room had a flickering light, which they quickly changed to a new bulb at our request. Overall, excellent value and location, but next time we would pay more to stay somewhere a bit better, ideally in the same general area.
