A bit noisy
If you visit this hotel, make sure your room doesn’t face Monsignor Rd. Cars blasted this music all night. Additionally, road construction with jackhammers started promptly at 7:00 am.

Not worth the price
Hotel is older and it's insane that it was $400 to stay there but it was comfortable and clean. The problem I had was that housekeeping staff was outside my door in the hallway screaming back-and-forth at 8:30 and didn't stop until 11 at one point I asked them if they could please turn down the walkie-talkies they were using because the volume was very loud and I couldn't get back to sleep. I just got a blank look, but they turned it down and just continued yelling back-and-forth.

Short Stay
Reasonable rates because the location is out of core Boston. Walkable to the tram lines. A negative ... Only two elevators (floor level lights and some buttons) so house keeping and trash bins use the same as the full house guests. Breakfast was always spot on, even with full house dining.

Friendly staff
The staff was very friendly. I would stay here again. There was one day where the beds weren't made, but the trash was taken out. Not a huge issue.

8/10 Very Good

The hotel was a convenient choice near downtown and transportation options. One major issue was a leaking ceiling and mold in our room discovered upon check-in. The other surprise was the addition of an overnight parking charge. The premium price should have included parking. Breakfast and amenities were on the mark for a HI express. Friendly staff definitely helped smooth h over the rough start by finding us another room on a ‘sold out’ weekend.

Convenient location close to many attractions. Friendly front desk. Limited space in room. No view on 2nd level. Didn’t receive correct number of towels each night of our stay. Didn’t try out any of roof deck.

Hotel was decent. Rip off to pay $50 a day in parking. Close to subway stop. No pool or gym.

A cost effective hotel. Reasonable location, reasonable service, reasonable breakfast. Positives: comfortable bed. Negatives: breakfast lacking a little imagination and healthier options. During our stay one lift of two was not functional creating some inconvenience for guests.
