This hotel is very pleasant with very good staff. Normally a place is good when they have great people! I would recommend this hotel to others if you are looking for basic housing and a spectacular location. You are literally steps away from the orange (back bay) T-line and a few minutes from the green stop - Copley Square. Location... More

We stayed here for a night while in town for a Red Sox game. The hotel is in a good location - easy walking to many places and very close to public transit. The rooms are small and basic, but we weren't in Boston to spend time in our hotel room... The room was clean, quiet and had everything we... More

This is a pleasant, clean, safe hotel in a convenient location. A 60 second walk to the Back Bay T (subway) entrance, 5 minute walk to Newbury Street, 10 minute walk to the Boston Common. Several good restaurants are located across the street and around the block. Staff was excellent; every interaction with them was positive, they were friendly and... More

We made the mistake of pre-paying for 5 nights to save 15%.The room was very small and uncomfortable. There were 2 hangers in the closet.. The shower was hardly adequate and the heating/cooling didn't work right. The mattress was horrible and my back still aches. While trying to get some sleep, someone set of the door alarms 4 times.I called... More

When I visit Boston, I always stay here. Best Value in Back Bay, and the quality is unmatched. The staff is always friendly, courteous and helpful. I have stayed here about 10 times, and I have never had a bad experience. It's right next to Back Bay station, which is super convenient.

I have no complaints about the property. Location was good, staff was friendly, the rooms were clean and comfortable, close by parking lot, free wireless(huge bonus) and provided easy access to a small cafe and convenience store on the main floor. I got in late and left early so I don't know if they offer in room dining. I had... More

The location was perfect...right in the heart of Copley. The front staff was very polite and helpful, and a cab driver was waiting at the front door when we checked out. The rooms were very clean, and there was always an extra supply of towels and such at our doorstep (we always use the do not disturb sign during our... More

We booked this "Boutique Hotel" as a 3 star on Hotwire. Really it is a slightly upscaled YWCA (really, sign is on the building). Many of the floors are still residential hotel and you need to insert your key to even get to your floor on the elevator-presumably because of security concerns. The front desk (staffed by the manager!) was... More

I have no complaints as I paid less than half the price of an average hotel in Boston, but I only stayed there for a night (we arrived late at night and checked out early in the morning); can´t imagine what I would be to stay there more than 2 nights for example. The room was clean and cozy but... More
