Excellent customer service from all the staff. The room was clean and the bed and pillows were very comfortable. I really appreciated the toiletries, bath robe, free snacks and the refrigerator. The free drinks at the lobby bar were a nice touch as well. Location was perfect for all the sights in central Boston. We loved that we could walk from the Silver line free shuttle from Logan airport.

My husband and I enjoyed our stay. The front desk staff were friendly and helpful as well as the bartender and door staff. Room was comfortable and a friendly housekeeper. Loved Ruka restaurant and so convenient as well as the bakery coffee shop within the hotel. Will stay again and recommend to others.

Pros (+) The hotel is super clean with without a doubt the most comfortable beds I have ever experienced.it is almost on the freedom trail and so close to the common it is in easy walk of Quincey market and both cheers pubs and all tourist stops are easily assessable by one of the tour bus at bottom of market .worth every penny
Cons (-) Ok to be picky no restaurant mostly coffee shops and food concession s but this encourages you to go further and Boston is easy to get about .ok bar is limited but what they do offer in very good but it's no pub .old fashioned. is outstanding but only few bottled beers no draft
